Medical College Vandalised Amid Midnight Protest

Miscreants entered the premises of state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital here shortly after midnight on Thursday and vandalised portions of the medical facility, where the body of a woman doctor was found week, police said. Later in the day, the Kolkata police arrested 12 people over the vandalism.

All those arrested were produced in a court and were sent to police custody till August 22.

The incident took place amid midnight protests by women against the horrific rape murder of the doctor at the hospital.

Spurred by the ‘Reclaim the Night’ campaign, which gained momentum through social media, the protests began at 11.55 pm, aligning with Independence Day celebrations, and spread across key areas in both small towns and big cities, including several landmarks in Kolkata.
