Kolkata rape-murder case: Parents of the doctor trainee allegedly raped and murdered at RG Kar hospital in August, on Wednesday (Sep 4) alleged that the Kolkata Police attempted to bribe them and suppress the case by hurriedly cremating her body.
The parents, while participating in a protest at the state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital where the horrific tragedy took place, said
"The police, from the very beginning, tried to hush up the case."
"We were not allowed to see the body and had to wait at the police station while the body was taken for post-mortem examinations.
Later, when the body was handed over to us, a senior police official offered us money, which we immediately declined," they alleged.
They said that they joined the protest to support the junior doctors fighting for their daughter since August 10.
An aunt of the deceased, as per ANI, said
"When the body of the daughter was lying in front of the parents in the house the police were offering money, is this the humanity of police?
She claimed that Till the last rites were not performed, 300-400 policemen surrounded us but after it was performed, not a single policeman was seen there.
What would the family do?
How would they go home? Police took no responsibility."
"Police were active till the last rites were performed and after that, they became completely inactive.
When the body of the daughter was lying in front of the parents in the house and we were shedding tears, the police were offering money.
Is this the humanity of the police? The Police were saying that they have fulfilled all their responsibilities.
Is this what is called fulfilling the responsibility?" she said further.
