The bench hearing the RG Kar rape-murder case in the Calcutta High Court recused itself from the case. Justice Raja Shekhar Mantha and Justice Rai Chattopadhyay said during the hearing on Tuesday that due to other matters we are not able to give time to this case.
During the hearing, the CBI also presented its investigation report. On this, the victim’s family said that no new investigation has been conducted by the agency. In fact, in May, the court had asked CBI to investigate the case afresh.
The High Court said that this is an important matter. The whole world is watching it. Therefore, it is important to get sufficient time for this matter. We have informed the Chief Justice about our decision to recuse ourselves from the case. They will take a decision on this now. If needed, a commission will also be formed for this.
