RG Kar doc who led post-mortem team quizzed by CBI again

Kolkata: CBI on Tuesday questioned Apurba Biswas, the doctor who had led the post-mortem team, once again. Biswas had earlier alleged a "neighbourhood uncle" had pressured him into conducting a post-mortem the same day.
While Biswas had not named the person and claimed the person was a former councilor, the victim's father had denied any knowledge of "doctors being pressured".
But the father had said he had called ex-Panihati councillor Sanjib Mukherjee on learning heard about the incident.
Biswas had earlier said the ex-councillor, who called himself a "neighbourhood uncle", had threatened him with "bloodshed" if they failed to do a post-mortem the same day.
But Mukherjee said on Tuesday there was no reason to rely only on the doctor's version.
"I never saw this doctor, I didn't know he would conduct a post-mortem. It's for the administration to decide. When I reached, the students had already been demanding a post-mortem. They spoke to her parents and presented an eight-point demand on the process," Mukherjee said.
"I was carrying a bag in which we kept all the documents. I received the cremation certificate as well."
About Biswas's allegation, Mukherjee said, "There were cops and health officials. You think they would listen to me and hold a post-mortem after sundown?"
