A local court in Kolkata has found Sanjay Roy, a 33-year-old former civic police volunteer, guilty in the gruesome rape and murder case of a trainee doctor at the state-run RG Kar hospital. He will be sentenced on Monday, bringing closure to the brutal incident that had shaken the nation last year.
The 31-year-old doctor, who was on duty on August 8 night, was found dead the next morning, sparking a massive probe and protests that brought Bengal to a standstill.
In a 160-page judgment, the Additional District and Sessions Court in Sealdah today convicted Roy under sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita that deal with rape, murder, and causing death.
"I have criticised some activities of the police and hospital authorities which came out in the evidence. Activities of the HoD, MSVP and Principal created some confusion and that has been criticised," said judge Anirban Das.
After the judgment, the victim’s father broke down in the court and told the judge, "You have honoured the faith that I reposed in you."
