The parents of the junior doctor of R.G. Kar Medical College & Hospital in Kolkata, who was raped and murdered within the hospital premises in August, wrote to Union Home minister Amit Shah on Tuesday morning, October 22 seeking an appointment with him.

In the email, the father of the victim has said that they are “feeling helpless” over the macabre crime committed against their daughter and so want an appointment with the Union Home minister to discuss the matter and seek his intervention in the early completion of the probe.

“After the heinous, unforeseen incident that happened to our daughter, we have been going through tremendous mental pressure and feeling helpless now,” the email read.
