As the Sealdah Court prepares to announce its verdict in the RG Kar rape-murder case, BJP leader Shehzad Poonawalla expressed that the public and protesting doctors will ultimately decide if justice has been served. He suggested that more than one person was involved in the crime and accused the TMC government of destroying evidence and prioritizing the protection of the hospital principal over justice for the victim.
Poonawalla criticized the TMC government for allegedly focusing on shielding the accused rather than punishing them. He claimed that party leaders threatened protesting doctors and noted that a TMC MP resigned, citing the failure of Mamata Banerjee's government. He emphasized that justice will only be achieved when the victim's parents feel all criminals are punished.
