A 31-year-old trainee doctor was brutally raped and murdered inside Kolkata's RG Kar hospital on August 9. Hours later, the hospital's Assistant Superintendent informed the victim's parents of her death in a series of three phone calls. Initially, the official stated that their daughter was "not well" and requested their immediate presence at the hospital. Subsequent calls suggested that the victim had died by suicide, sparking allegations of a hospital cover-up. The incident has raised concerns about patient safety and accountability within the healthcare institution. An investigation into the matter is currently underway.
