RG Kar hospital's cover up
The session's court reprimanded the attempts to cover up the incident by the hospital authorities. It stated the hospital authorities, led by former Principal Sandip Ghosh and MSVP, attempted to cover up the rape-murder incident to avoid liability.
"There is no doubt to consider that from the end of any authority, efforts were made to show the death as a suicidal one so that the hospital authority would not face any consequences," The judgement read.
