Ex-Principal Sandeep Ghosh Seeks Financial Relief from Calcutta High Court Amid Multiple Charges

Baby Chakraborty, KalimNews, October 17, 2024, Kolkata : Sandeep Ghosh, the former principal of RG Kar Medical College, who has been embroiled in multiple high-profile controversies, has once again made headlines. Ghosh, who is currently in jail facing serious charges related to financial corruption and the rape and murder of a doctor, has approached the Calcutta High Court with a special plea seeking financial relief.

Ghosh’s legal troubles began when he was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with a corruption scandal at RG Kar Medical College. Soon after, he was implicated in the horrific case of the rape and murder of a doctor at the same institution, further tarnishing his reputation and prompting his resignation as principal under intense public and legal scrutiny.

Now, as he remains in judicial custody, Ghosh has filed an urgent application in the High Court requesting permission to prematurely withdraw a fixed deposit to cover family and personal expenses. Justice Bivas Patnaik is expected to preside over the hearing of his plea in the coming days.

The charges against Ghosh during his tenure as principal are numerous. Allegations of financial corruption have surfaced, including accusations of rigged tenders, misappropriation of hospital resources, and even the illegal smuggling of hospital waste and dead bodies. These claims, combined with his arrest in the rape and murder case, have left him at the center of a storm of legal challenges.

His latest plea for financial assistance adds a new twist to the ongoing saga, as it raises questions about his family’s situation and the conditions under which a jailed individual can access personal funds. Ghosh’s case, already a source of public outrage, continues to garner attention as the court prepares to hear his request.

As the High Court evaluates his application, all eyes will be on the proceedings, awaiting the next development in the legal battles surrounding the former head of RG Kar Medical College.
