Previously, the Chief Justice of India (CJI) highlighted that the CBI had responded specifically to the issues raised by the Court. This included whether the dead body challan in the statutory form was submitted along with the autopsy report. The CJI also noted, “CBI is also exploring the possibility of whether the scene of the crime was tampered with, evidence was destroyed, or if there was complicity of other persons in failing to report the crime.”The Court had also instructed Solicitor General (SG) Tushar Mehta to ensure that Kolkata Police handed over the entire CCTV footage to the CBI. In response to a letter written by the victim’s father, the Supreme Court directed that the “valuable” inputs provided by him should be thoroughly considered by the investigating officer.The doctor’s body, bearing severe injury marks, was discovered on 9 August. A civic volunteer was arrested by Kolkata Police in connection with the case the next day. Subsequently, on 13 August, the Calcutta High Court transferred the investigation from Kolkata Police to the CBI, which began its probe on 14 August.
