According to state-owned All India Radio, federal forensic experts and medical officers were expected to visit the R.G. Kar Medical College and Hospital, where authorities found the body of the 31-year-old resident doctor in a seminar hall on Friday. The case also highlights India’s long struggle to tackle violence against women, despite some of the world’s most stringent laws. Medical associations across the country joined the action, calling for a federal investigation and overhaul of security measures at hospitals. Videos from Kolkata showed doctors wearing white coats and stethoscopes chanting and raising banners reading “we want justice.”Similar protests continued in other cities across India.
