KOLKATA: Sandeep Ghosh, former principal of RG Kar Medical College, Kolkata, where a 31-year-old woman doctor was killed, has been arrested. He was arrested in connection with a corruption case. A case was registered against him under non-bailable section.

A case was filed against him on charges of criminal conspiracy and cheating. The CBI team came to Sandeep Ghosh's house and interrogated him in the corruption case. Earlier, the CBI team investigating the rape and murder of the woman doctor had conducted a lie test on Sandeep Ghosh. The lie test was conducted because it was found that Ghosh was hiding many things during the continuous 10-day interrogation.
The family of the murdered PG doctor had alleged that the principal tried to hide the incident and initially explained that it was suicide. The Supreme Court also pointed this out.
The female PG trainee doctor was killed on August 9. Subsequently, on August 12, Dr Sandeep Ghosh resigned from the post. The principal's resignation was one of the important demands of the protesting doctors and students.
