RG Kar case: Diary found near trainee doctor's body which documented gold medal, top hospital dreams
Kolkata/IBNS: A torn diary was recovered near the body of the Post-Graduate trainee doctor, who was brutally raped and murdered at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, which documented her big dreams of winning a gold medal and other honours in medicine, media reports said.
She had even listed the hospitals she wanted to work in.
The Central Bureau of Investigation, which is handling the case, is currently in possession of the diary and is consulting handwriting experts to confirm if the 31-year-old had written it.
The woman's parents had confirmed that she was in the habit of keeping a diary. It was found near her body on August 9 in the seminar room where she was raped and murdered.
NDTV citing sources said some of the pages of the diary have been ripped out. What remained is an account of her dreams, her likes and dislikes, and her love for her parents.
"The deceased wanted to become a big doctor. She wanted to get a gold medal and win big honours in the medical field... She had wanted to study for her MD," a source told NDTV.
"The names of some hospitals were mentioned, where she dreamed of working one day... There was also mention of her wish to keep her parents happy," he added.
The woman's parents had told the media that she had been depressed about her work and study situation.
She had expressed doubts about whether she would be allowed to pass comments that had allegations of irregularities at the medical college under the stewardship of Sandip Ghosh, who is now facing an inquiry from the state police.
The former Principal is also being questioned by the Central Bureau of Investigation for five consecutive days.

The chilling rape-murder case triggered massive outrage across the country as well as the medical community.
The matter has now reached the Supreme Court, which took suo moto cognizance of the issue and held a hearing on Tuesday.
The Supreme Court set up a 10-member National Task Force to recommend steps to prevent violence against and ensure safe work conditions for healthcare professionals.
"Medical professionals - doctors, nurses and paramedic staff - work round the clock. Unrestricted access to every part of healthcare institutions has made healthcare professionals susceptible to violence," the court said.
Last Tuesday, the Calcutta High Court transferred the investigation to the Central Bureau of Investigation, slamming the Kolkata Police which had "made no significant progress in the case".
The Trinamool Congress has countered the criticism over the incident by questioning what progress the CBI has made after it took over the probe.
