The Calcutta High Court has mandated the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to produce all relevant materials, including documents, audio recordings, videos, and photographs, pertaining to the RG Kar rape-murder case. This directive comes as the court prepares to assess the potential for further investigation during a hearing scheduled for Thursday. The case, which has garnered significant attention, has seen complications as multiple benches of the High Court recused themselves from hearing it, leading to the assignment of the case to a special bench led by Justices Shampa Sarkar and Tirthankar Ghosh. During the proceedings, the court denied a request from the victim's parents to visit the crime scene, emphasizing the need for legal grounds to support such a request. Senior advocate Jayanta Narayan Chatterjee pointed out that the seminar hall of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital was not the sole location of the crime, mentioning that other areas, including the seventh-floor operating theatre and the office of the then-principal Sandip Ghosh, had remained unexamined despite requests for investigation from the CBI. Justice Sarkar further cautioned all involved parties against making public comments that could influence the ongoing proceedings.
