The victim's mother revealed that her daughter had expressed reluctance about going to the hospital in the days leading up to the attack. "She used to say that she didn't like going to RG Kar anymore," the mother said.

“One person has been arrested. I am sure many more are involved in this incident. I think the entire department is responsible for the incident... The police did not do a good job at all. I feel that the Chief Minister is trying to stop the protest, today she imposed Section 144 here so that people cannot protest,” she added.
The body of the post-graduate trainee doctor was found in the RG Kar Hospital's seminar room on August 9. The Kolkata Police arrested a civic volunteer the next day in this connection. Calcutta High Court directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to take over the investigation after expressing a lack of satisfaction with the Kolkata Police.
