India News | West Bengal: Second-year Medical Student Found Dead, BJP MLA Agnimitra Paul Demands CBI Probe

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], August 9 (ANI): West Bengal BJP MLA Agnimitra Paul demanded a CBI investigation and a re-postmortem by a Central Government hospital after a second-year medical student was found dead at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata on Friday.

Agnimitra Paul said, "The condition in which her body was found, completely naked with bruises all over it, makes it look like she was raped and then murdered. We demand a CBI investigation. You can't conduct a postmortem after the evening, but they did it here. If postmortem is done under the state system, truth will be buried."
