Capital punishment should be given to all the accused," he stated, underscoring the widespread anger and demands for justice within the medical community.
He urged the CBI to create a detailed charge sheet that includes all relevant names, even those that may not have been mentioned initially, "A strong charge sheet should be made against those whose names have not been included in the chargesheet."
Protests to continue
As November 9 approaches, marking 90 days since the tragic incident, Dr. Rajdeep stated that protests will persist until justice is achieved for the victim. "On November 9, we will exhibit all the major events that have taken place so far in this case. I want to say that we will not stop; the protest will continue," he asserted.
