Kolkata – In a significant development, the West Bengal Medical Council (WBMC) announced on Thursday the cancellation of medical enrollment for Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of RG Kar Sanitarium. This decision comes as Ghosh remains in the custody of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with a disturbing case involving the rape and murder of a female doctor at the sanitarium.
The cancellation of Ghosh’s medical license took effect on September 19, and it was executed under various provisions of the Bengal Medical Act, 1914. An official from the WBMC confirmed that Ghosh has been removed from the list of Registered Medical Practitioners, reflecting the serious nature of the allegations against him.
The case has sent shockwaves through the medical community and the public alike, raising concerns about safety and ethical practices within medical institutions. As the investigation unfolds, the CBI is expected to examine multiple facets of the case, including the circumstances surrounding the tragic death of the young doctor.
The WBMC's swift action serves as a reminder of the accountability expected from medical professionals and the council's commitment to upholding the standards of the medical profession. As the community awaits further developments, the focus remains on ensuring justice for the victim and addressing the broader implications of this case for healthcare institutions in the region.
