The Calcutta High Court received a motion on Thursday from the parents of the doctor who was raped and killed at the RG Kar hospital, asking for a new probe into the crime.They asked for guidance for a new inquiry into their daughter's rape and murder, expressing a lack of confidence in the current investigation into the crime that sparked massive protests.

Judge Tirthankar Ghosh requested that their attorney include the CBI, which is investigating the case, as a party to the petition and bring up the issue once more in the courtroom on Monday.On August 9, the body of the postgraduate trainee physician who was on duty was discovered in the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital's seminar room.Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, and Abhijit Mondal, the officer-in-charge of Tala police station, were granted bail by the Sealdah court on December 13. Their attorneys claim that because the CBI did not file charge sheets against them within the allotted 90 days, they were given bail.The police officer was accused of postponing the filing of a formal complaint after the body was discovered, while Ghosh was accused of tampering with the evidence in the case. Sanjay Roy, the primary accused, is the subject of a charge sheet filed by the CBI. The victim went to sleep in the hospital's seminar room during a break, and Roy, a civic volunteer with the local police, reportedly committed the murder, according to the CBI's charge sheet.
