CBI Summons ASI Anup Dutta
CBI on Tuesday summoned ASI Anup Dutta, an alleged associate of the arrested accused Sanjay Roy in connection with the rape and murder of a 31-year-old PG trainee doctor in Kolkata’s RG Kar MCH on August 9.
As per reports, Roy joined Kolkata Police’s disaster management group as a volunteer in 2019 but later transferred to the police welfare cell. He then moved to the police outpost at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital and had access to all departments.
Despite not being a regular cop, Roy would introduce himself as a Kolkata Police personnel and roam in t-shirt with KP (Kolkata Police) written on it. His bike too had a KP tag. He often used his contacts to stay at the police barracks. Many other civic volunteers thought he was actually a cop, reports said.
