"When the body was handed over to us, a senior police official offered us money, which we immediately declined," the Kolkata doctor's family claimed.
The parents of the Kolkata doctor who was brutally raped and murdered last month have alleged that the police tried to bribe them initially to suppress the case. The incident took place while the doctor was on night shift and has led to massive protests across the state, demanding swift action.
The parents of the 31-year-old joined the protest at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, where their daughter's body was found on August 9, and accused the police of allegedly trying to close the case without a thorough investigation.
"The police, from the very beginning, tried to hush up the case. We were not allowed to see the body and had to wait at the police station while the body was taken for post-mortem examinations," the father said while addressing the protesters.
