BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari has extended support to the parents of the trainee doctor who was raped and murdered at RG Kar Hospital and supported their decision to challenge the life sentence of main culprit Sanjay Roy in the High Court as they have been demanding the death penalty.

Judge Anirban Das said crime did not fall under “rarest of the rare” category as justification for not giving death penalty to Sanjay Roy.

The horrific crime that sparked nationwide outrage and protests over workplace safety for medical professionals has reached a conclusion, with the main accused now officially found guilty.
