Key Questions Answered
Doctors and protest organizers expressed intense anger and frustration over former RG Kar principal Sandip Ghosh receiving bail, stating it reflects the failure of the judiciary, the government, and the CBI's sluggish investigation. They fear it trivializes the pursuit of justice for Abhaya, with some cynically remarking that the system sends the message that 'No One Killed Abhaya' and questioning whether he might be reinstated.
The Supreme Court division bench of Justices M.M. Sundresh and Prasanna B. Varale set aside the Calcutta High Court's order and granted bail to Sandip Ghosh because he had already spent about two years in custody while the CBI had only examined 7 out of 147 total witnesses during that lengthy period.
The CBI charged Sandip Ghosh with criminal conspiracy, criminal breach of trust, cheating, and using forged documents in connection with financial irregularities and manipulating scores to favor unqualified medical students.
