A West Bengal Court has framed charges against RG Kar rape and murder accused Sanjoy Roy. Roy has been remanded in custody as a suspect in the brutal rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital at the end of her night shift.

The court has also stipulated that the trial will commence on the 11th of November.

The gruesome rape and murder of the trainee doctor led to nationwide unrest. There were protests across the country, including by medical professionals, demanding better safety conditions at the workplace.

Notably, the Supreme Court took suo moto cognizance of the issue and emphasised the need for enhanced security for medical professionals, as well as improved conditions at the workplace.

The investigation of the case was handed over from the state police to the CBI, by the Calcutta High Court. The CBI found Roy to be the sole accused in the case, while it also arrested former Principal Sandip Ghosh over his alleged complicity in the crime.
