In an interview with India Today TV, the former deputy superintendent of RG Kar Medical College, Akhtar Ali, said that Roy was part of Dr Sandip Ghosh's security. 


In the interview, Ali also claimed that Ghosh, who resigned as the principal after the rape and murder of a trainee doctor was involved in several illegal activities, including the 'selling


of unclaimed bodies."


"Sandip Ghosh used to do business with unclaimed dead bodies...He was also involved in trafficking biomedical waste. Ghosh used to sell it to the people who were part of his additional


security. It was then sent to Bangladesh," Ali told the news channel.


Meanwhile, hundreds of representatives from the medical fraternity, including senior and junior doctors as well as medical students, hit the streets at Salt Lake here on Wednesday demanding


justice for the woman doctor of state-run R. G. Kar Medical College & Hospital in Kolkata who was allegedly raped and murdered in the medical facility.

The protest march, which started from the Central Government Office (CGO) complex, would culminate at Swasthya Bhavan, the state health department headquarters.


Explaining the rationale behind starting the rally from the CGO complex, a protesting doctor said that the said complex houses the office of the special crime unit of the Central Bureau of


Investigation (CBI) which is conducting the probe into the matter,


"A week has passed since the CBI officials have started the investigation process and we are yet to get any information about any significant progress in the probe process. So, we started


our rally from the CGO complex to send a subtle message to CBI," he said.


While the rally started, former R.G Kar principal Sandip Ghosh, who is facing interrogation in the case, was within the CBI office at the CGO complex.


Meanwhile, both the CGO complex and Swasthya Bhavan have been wrapped under a thick security blanket since Wednesday morning.


Heavy police deployment has been made to escort the protesters during the rally.


The protesters are marching peacefully raising slogans like "We want Justice" or "Justice for R.G. Kar victim".


The protesters carrying posters sought justice, fast probe and punishment for the accused.


As per the schedule, after reaching Swasthya Bhavan, a delegation of the protesters will meet the top officials of the state Health Department and submit a memorandum in which their demands


will be enlisted.


The post-mortem report of the victim had suggested that the body had 14 injuries.
