Doctor's rape-murder: TMC MP who moved court against Bengal police vows to back 'people’s protest'
KOLKATA: TMC MP Sukhendu Sekhar Roy may have avoided further confrontation with his party's government in West Bengal after deleting a social media post on the alleged rape and murder of a doctor, yet he chooses to keep supporting the “spontaneous mass upheaval” against the horrific crime in the state-run hospital.
He indicated his conviction will remain firm even if that “uprising” ultimately puts the party he faithfully served for 13 years in the dock.
“In my entire 56 years of political life, I have never witnessed such a spontaneous upheaval of the common masses. They didn’t bother for a political flag to unite and hit the streets in protest in the middle of the night with a common agenda: justice for the victim and punishment for the perpetrator,” Roy told PTI.
