"We Had To Escape To Save Our Lives...": Trainee Doctor As Mob Stormed Hospital

The Kolkata Police dispersed the mob from RG Kar Medical College and Hospital where a scuffle led to vandalism of the protesting site, vehicles and public property on August 15 midnight. A protest was being held by the doctors in the campus of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital against the rape-murder of the trainee doctor Kolkata Police Commissioner, Vineet Goyal said, "...What has happened here is because of the wrong media campaign, which has been a malicious media campaign which is going as far as Kolkata police is concerned. What has the Kolkata police not done? It has done everything in this case... We have tried to satisfy the family but the rumours are being floated... I am extremely angry. We have not done anything wrong. Because of a malicious media campaign, Kolkata police have lost the trust of the people. We have never said that there is only one person (accused), we have said that we are waiting for scientific evidence and it takes time... Just based on rumours, I can't arrest a young PG student, it's against my conscience. There is so much pressure from the media, I have been very clear that we have done what is right. Now, the CBI is investigating it. They'll do a fair deal. We will give all support to the CBI... False propaganda is going on that bones are broken, this is done and that is done, unfortunately, that is not supported by scientific evidence..."
