Bullet points of Doctors go on strike after rape and murder of colleague in India
- Doctors in Indian government hospitals went on strike to protest the rape and murder of a young medic in Kolkata, West Bengal.
- The 31-year-old woman was found with multiple injuries and her autopsy confirmed sexual assault and homicide.
- A man who worked at the victim's hospital has been detained in connection with the crime.
- Doctors demand better workplace security, including CCTV cameras, and a specialized law to protect healthcare workers from violence.
- A survey found that 75% of doctors in India have faced some form of violence, and an average of 90 rapes are reported daily.
- Rapes often go unreported due to stigma and lack of faith in police investigations, and convictions are rare due to India's clogged-up criminal justice system.
- The case of Jyoti Singh, a 23-year-old student who was gang-raped and murdered in 2012, led to a change in the law to introduce the death penalty for rape.
