A police volunteer has been convicted of the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at a hospital in India that led to nationwide protests last year.
The Civil and Criminal Court in Sealdah found 33-year-old Sanjay Roy guilty of the rape and murder of the female trainee, whose bloodied body was found in a classroom at the state-run R G Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata last August, with the case exposing the country’s struggle with sexual violence against women.
