Mon Sep 16 08:00:22 UTC 2024: ## Former RG Kar Hospital Principal Found Deceptive in Polygraph Test, CBI Alleges

**Kolkata, India** – The forensic report of a polygraph test administered to former RG Kar hospital principal Dr. Sandip Ghosh suggests he deliberately misled CBI investigators in connection with the rape-murder of a trainee doctor, according to India Today’s exclusive access to the federal agency’s remand note.

The report, which utilized layered voice analysis (LVA) and polygraph testing, revealed that Dr. Ghosh’s statements regarding the case were deceptive, particularly concerning his actions following the discovery of the doctor’s body.

The CBI claims that Dr. Ghosh, despite being in consultation with a lawyer, deliberately avoided filing a First Information Report (FIR) about the gruesome incident. The complaint was eventually filed by the hospital’s vice-principal, who presented it as a suicide.

The remand note further revealed that Dr. Ghosh was in contact with senior police officer Abhijit Mondal from 10:03 am on August 9th, the day the doctor’s body was found. Despite being informed at 9:58 am of the discovery, Dr. Ghosh reportedly downplayed the rape and did not immediately go to the hospital.

Both Dr. Ghosh and Mr. Mondal were arrested by the CBI two days ago for their alleged role in delaying the FIR and missing evidence.

The CBI is expected to present a progress report on their investigation tomorrow, following a three-week deadline set by the Calcutta High Court.

The case has sparked outrage across India, leading to massive protests. The deceased doctor’s autopsy revealed she was brutally raped before being murdered. A civic volunteer, Sanjoy Roy, was arrested by the Kolkata Police on August 10th in connection with the crime.

This revelation further complicates the already sensitive case and raises concerns about the initial investigation and the potential for a cover-up. The CBI’s findings are expected to be crucial in determining the true extent of Dr. Ghosh’s involvement in the case.
