With high security in place, Sanjay Roy, convicted of the heinous rape and murder of a doctor at R G Kar Medical College, appeared in court on Monday. Police escorted him amid a fortified environment at Sealdah court, aiming to prevent disorder as crowds gathered to witness the proceedings.

Amid the tense atmosphere, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee opted for silence until the court's decision, having previously advocated the death penalty for Roy. The victim's parents expressed mixed emotions: trusting the judiciary yet criticizing the CBI for not capturing other involved culprits.
