Expressing her disappointment that Sanjay Roy, the man convicted of raping and murdering a trainee doctor at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, did not get the death penalty, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has said her government will approach the High Court.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Immediately after a Kolkata court sentenced Roy to life imprisonment till death on Monday, the Trinamool Congress chief – whose government came under fire for its alleged “mishandling” of the case and faced widespread protests, including from junior doctors – said the Kolkata Police would have ensure death penalty for him, but the investigation was taken away from the force and handed over to the CBI.<\/p>\n
“We demanded death penalty from Day 1. We demand it now too. But it’s the court’s order. I can share my party’s opinion… we ensured death penalty in three cases within 60 days. If the case stayed with us, we would have ensured death penalty long back. I don’t know the details,” Ms Banerjee said.
