Medic's rape-murder: SC to hear on Sept 9 case related to RG Kar hospital incident

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear on Monday the case it has initiated on its own regarding the rape and murder of a junior doctor at the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata.

As per the cause list for September 9 uploaded on the apex court website, a bench comprising Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra is slated to hear the matter.

The hearing assumes significance in the wake of a recent application filed by the Centre alleging "unpardonable" non-cooperation by the West Bengal government in extending logistical support to the CISF, tasked with providing security at the hospital.
