Saket Gokhale refutes claims of Kolkata Police bribing parents in doctor rape-murder case
Kolkata: TMC MP Saket Gokhale has refuted media claims regarding the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata, accusing certain outlets of spreading misinformation to advance a political agenda.
In his post on X, Gokhale stated, "Devious FAKE news again. The victim’s PARENTS have categorically denied this on video. So Shekhar Gupta gets someone to make this statement & says they are victim’s FAMILY. Who is more trustworthy: PARENTS or 'FAMILY'? A new cunning wordplay for spreading BJP’s fake agenda."
Gokhale’s post came in response to reports suggesting that the victim's family had accused the Kolkata Police of offering them money while they were grieving with their daughter's mortal remains at home. Gokhale in the post has said that the victim’s parents denied making such claims, casting doubt on the credibility of these allegations and questioned the media’s sources.
The case, which has sparked widespread protests and public outrage, involves the alleged rape and murder of a 31-year-old doctor whose body was found in a semi-naked state at the college seminar hall on August 9, 2024. The investigation has since been handed over to the CBI.
Devious FAKE news again.
