Arrest Made in Kolkata After Drunk Civic Volunteer Rams Bike Into RG Kar Protester

A group of students were protesting against the rape and murder of a junior doctor at RG Kar Medical College & Hospital when a motorcycle hit one of them. The civic volunteer involved was identified as Gangasagar Golde.

The sole arrested accused in the RG Kar rape and murder case, Sanjay Roy, was also a civic volunteer attached to the city police. A complaint has been registered against a traffic sergeant, Tarakeswar Puri, who was involved in a verbal altercation with the protesting students after the motorcycle-borne civic volunteer allegedly hit one of them.

A video of the incident went viral, although the authenticity of the video could not be verified by IANS. On another occasion, a group of former students of Rabindra Bharati University was protesting against the same rape and murder incident when a motorcycle-borne civic volunteer allegedly hit one of them on BT Road in the northern outskirts of Kolkata.

The protesters surrounded him and demanded justice. Although the civic volunteer initially tried to argue with the protesters, he later apologized to them, as seen in the viral video.

However, the protesters refused to let him go. The traffic sergeant then intervened, but the protesters engaged in a verbal altercation with him.

Subsequently, the students blocked the busy BT Road and continued protesting until about 9.30 A.M. on Saturday, withdrawing only after learning that the accused civic volunteer had been arrested. Meanwhile, West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose has stated that he is expediting requests from the victim’s parents in the RG Kar tragedy.

The Governor visited Delhi to present their grievances before the Home Minister, highlighting the gravity of the situation and the public protest against the incident. This story has not been edited and is published from a syndicated feed.
