Details of the Assault
That ill-fated night, a 31-year-old trainee was badly beaten to death in what could have been between 3 and 5 in the morning. The findings of the autopsy show how the deceased was brutalised in the course of being murdered. Thus, the victim was stabbed in private parts and numerous bruises were found all through out her body and finally strangled to death. The examination revealed that her thyroid cartilage was broken by the strangulation and she had haemorrhages both externally on her eyes and mouth as well as internally in other body organs.

Still, she fighted back and the attacker sustained deep slashing injuries and scratches on his hands.

Despite the fact that the woman was in a state of limited consciousness, she offered enormous resistance to the aggressor – this helped investigators significantly.

The case thus not only caused public anxiety about the quick need for justice for the Kolkata Trainee Doctor, but also raised public awareness of safety concerns and the lack of accountability of medical facilities or police departments.
