RG Kar Rape Case: No Evidence of Struggle at Crime Scene, Says Forensic Report

No evidence of a possible struggle or resistance was found at the crime scene in the seminar room of Kolkata’s RG Kar Hospital where a trainee doctor was raped and murdered, according to the forensic report submitted by the Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL).

Trainee Doctor’s Body

The body of the trainee doctor was found inside the seminar hall of RG Kar Hospital on August 9, triggering nationwide outrage and weeks of protests by healthcare professionals. The CBI has filed a charge-sheet against prime accused Sanjay Roy, a civic volunteer attached to the Kolkata Police.

Forensic Investigation

Experts from CFSL, Delhi, examined the hospital premises on August 14, collecting samples from the alleged crime scene, including the wooden stage mattress in the seminar hall where the trainee doctor was allegedly assaulted.

Report Findings

The report stated, “The cut mark portions observed on this mattress were reasonably corresponding to the head and lower abdomen area of an injured victim who stated or happens to be lying on this mattress.” The report further noted, “However, the evidence of a possible struggle shown by the victim with the assailant or fight in between them was found missing.”

Absence of Biological Stains

The forensic analysis revealed that “no biological stains” were detected on or around the wooden stage or the rest of the seminar room floor, apart from the mattress on the wooden stage.
