KOLKATA: The father of the deceased doctor in the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital rape-death case has refrained from disclosing details about his conversation with the CBI, citing legal constraints.
"It is not lawfully appropriate to give details on our conversation with the CBI. I can't give you details on the questioning that has been done in connection with this case," he said.
The victim's father expressed his gratitude to everyone protesting across the country and the world, considering them as his own children.
According to the victim's father, the CBI has assured the family that the accused will be apprehended promptly and given severe punishment based on the information they have provided.
He emphasized his desire for justice and rejected monetary compensation, stating that it would hurt his daughter if he accepted money as compensation for her death.
"CBI has assured us that the accused will be arrested at the earliest and awarded strict punishment based on whatever we have told them. I have turned down the compensation. It will hurt my daughter if I accept money as compensation for her death. I want justice," he added.
