The Kolkata Police have arrested Nirmal Ghosh, a prominent leader of the Trinamool Congress, over allegations of involvement in a cover‑up in the RG Kar case. The incident, which took place two years ago, has drawn renewed scrutiny as investigators seek to uncover all parties involved.

Ghosh’s arrest follows a series of investigations that have linked several political figures to the events surrounding the death of RG Kar. Police officials say that Ghosh is suspected of facilitating or obstructing the inquiry.
