Kolkata Doctor Rape-Murder: Accused Slept After Crime, Blood Found on Shoe Despite Washed Clothes

The police stated on Sunday that the man who is suspected of raping and killing a doctor inside Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital returned home after allegedly perpetrating the crime and slept for a few hours. To remove any proof, he later cleaned his garments. However, the accused—a volunteer for the community—had bloodstains on his shoe, according to the police. Although the accused has no official connection to the hospital, he was a frequent visitor in the past.

On Friday morning, the post-graduate trainee doctor’s body was discovered within the hospital’s seminar hall. Her coworkers said that after eating, she had gone to the hallway to relax. The murder and rape happened between three and six in the morning. For the second time in three days, city police commissioner Vineet Goyal visited the medical facility on Sunday and met with representatives of disgruntled junior physicians.

“After completing the crime, the accused returned to his lodging and slept through the early hours of Friday morning. He cleaned the clothing he was wearing at the time of the crime to remove any evidence after he woke up. During a search, his shoes were discovered to have bloodstains on them,” the officer stated.
