Kolkata: The man who was arrested on the charge of raping and murdering a doctor inside a Kolkata hospital, returned to his place and went to sleep before washing his clothes the next morning to destroy evidence, a police officer probing the case claimed.

The police, however, found marks of blood on the shoe of the accused, a civic volunteer who is not associated with the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, but used to frequent the place.

The body of a woman post-graduate trainee who was allegedly raped and murdered inside a seminar hall of the hospital, was found on Friday morning.

The civic volunteer was arrested on Saturday. Protests by junior doctors demanding quick punishment of those responsible for the crime continued for the third day on Sunday, affecting services in government hospitals.

City Police Commissioner Vineet Goyal visited the medical establishment on Sunday and held a meeting with representatives of agitating junior doctors. (PTI)
