BJP's Locket Chatterjee demands probe against Bengal CM, alleges Kolkata rape-murder was "organised crime"

Kolkata: BJP West Bengal General Secretary Locket Chatterjee demanded a probe against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee as she alleged that the rape and murder of trainee doctor in Kolkata was an "organised crime."
Speaking to ANI on Thursday, the BJP leader said, "Earlier we have seen that Kolkata police was sending summons to the people saying that they are spreading fake news. Now, we can see that Kolkata police itself is spreading fake news."
"The CM should be inquired first to get to the truth. It was an organised crime. Sandip Ghosh has big names with him, even Kalighat is linked with it. Why TMC government send 21 advocates to the Supreme Court?," she added.
Earlier, BJP national spokesperson Amit Malviya cited a letter dated August 10 allegedly signed by former principal of RG Kar Hospital, Sandip Ghosh ordering renovation of the incident site a day after the trainee doctor was raped and murdered.
Malviya dubbed it as "explosive" as he alleged that the West Bengal government and the hospital lied regarding the date of renovation.
In a post on X, Malviya stated, "This is explosive. Yet another piece of evidence, which establishes that Dr Sandip Ghosh, now arrested, disgraced former Principal of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, ordered repair/renovation of toilet, near the Seminar Room (scene of crime) on 10th Aug, a day after the young lady doctor was brutally raped and murdered (she was killed on the intervening night of August 8th/9th)."
"It means the claim of renovation starting prior to the date of crime was an OUTRIGHT LIE. The WB Govt and the hospital LIED. Kolkata Police even filed complaints against those, who shared the video of the broken wall," he added.
Malviya further targeted Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, the hospital administration and the Kolkata Police regarding the letter and accused that three of them "colluded" to destroy all evidences and sanitised the scene of crime.
"This is evil and raises further questions on their motives," he said.
Malviya retierated the demand for the Chief Minister's resgination and alleged that "much of the evidence" have already been destroyed.
"Mamata Banerjee and Vineet Goyal must be subjected to polygraph test, to unearth the truth. The movement for justice will continue," Malviya stated.
In the alleged letter dated August 10, the Executive Engineer was ordered to take up repair/renovation/reconstruction of on duty Doctors' Room along with separate attached toilets in all departments of RG Kar Hospital, Kolkata on an urgent basis. The letter stated that there are "deficiency" of on duty Doctors' Rooms and separate atatched toilets in various departments.
The body of the trainee doctor was found in the seminar room of the hospital on August 9. The incident sparked nationwide protests. A civic volunteer was arrested shortly after. The CBI also arrested Dr Sandip Ghosh, for alleged financial misconduct at the medical establishment.
