Mamata Banerjee Says Will Hand Over Doctor's Rape-Murder Probe To CBI If... | Read
The police will have time till Sunday to solve the rape-murder last week of a 31-year-old doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College, failing which the CBI will take over the case, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said Monday afternoon. The deadline for the state cops - whom Ms Banerjee backed and praised as "the best in the world" - comes amid intense political pressure by the BJP.
"If there are more accused... and all are not arrested by Sunday... we will hand over the case to the CBI," the Chief Minister said after meeting the family of the victim, and threw in a swipe at the federal agency, which reports to the BJP.
