A relative of a patient at a private Kolkata hospital was arrested for threatening a woman doctor, stating, "We will make [an incident like] R G Kar happen here." The altercation occurred over alleged delays in treatment, prompting doctors to protest and demand the arrest. This incident follows ongoing nationwide protests sparked by the rape and murder of a junior doctor at RG Kar Medical College. The patient, a 58-year-old woman, remains in critical condition. A case has been registered under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the West Bengal Medicare Service Act.
