On September 3, the court had sent him to eight days in CBI custody.

Outraged by the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at the Kolkata hospital a month ago, doctors at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on Tuesday continued their protest over the incident.

They are seeking feedback from the CBI regarding the motive behind the RG Kar rape and murder incident, disciplinary action against Sandip Ghosh, resignation of Kolkata police commissioner Vineet Goyal, and assurance about the safety and security of doctors and health staff in West Bengal, among other issues.

Doctor Aniket Mandal, president RDA, RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, said that doctors will not resume work until their demands are accepted.

“We also want normalcy, but our demand is legitimate, so the state should accept this demand and if it is accepted, then only we will resume work. Our demand is the arrest of all culprits, a disciplinary action committee formed by the health ministry, and suspension of Sandip Ghosh,” Mandal told ANI.

On Monday, the Supreme Court had reminded that no action should be taken against doctors once they return to work by September 10.
