The two persons who have been most frequently named in social media theories as accused in <\/span>the R G Kar rape and murder case<\/a> in Kolkata are Arshean Alam and Golam Azam. Both of them work as house staff at the same hospital where the female postgraduate trainee’s (PGT) body was found on August 9. An Alt News investigation<\/a> has already established that Arshean Alam was at his home at the time of the commissioning of the crime and is being targeted without any evidence of involvement whatsoever. This story is about Golam Azam and his whereabouts on the night of the incident.<\/span><\/p>\n

Right-wing X user Hindutva Knight (@HPhobiaWatch<\/a>) tweeted images of Arshean and Golam, claiming that the Bengal government was trying to protect them. <\/span>The tweet has garnered 22 Lakh views and has been retweeted over 7,000 times. This claim was further amplified by Right-wing columnist Madhu Kishwar<\/a>, who shared a list that included Arshean and Golam’s names. Kishwar alleged that all the people on the list had been absconding. She claimed that their names “explain(ed)” why there was a “determined attempt to shield them” and added that one man (arguably referring to Sanjay Roy, the prime accused and only person arrested in the case) had been “tricked into raping her dead body.”<\/span><\/p>\n
