The Calcutta High Court has transferred the investigation into the rape and murder of a trainee doctor in Kolkata to the CBI, citing serious lapses in the ongoing probe. The decision came after the victim's parents and others filed petitions seeking a court-monitored investigation. The court noted that, despite five days passing since the incident, there has been no significant progress, raising concerns that crucial evidence might be destroyed. The case, involving the brutal killing of a postgraduate trainee at RG Kar Medical College, has sparked widespread protests among medical professionals in Kolkata.
