The investigation into the Durgapur gangrape case has escalated, with police taking two accused, Sheikh Riazuddin and Sheikh Nasuruddin, to Bijra village for probe activities. Authorities are considering crime scene reconstruction with all five arrested individuals to uncover the full details of the incident involving a medical student from IQ City Medical College Hospital.

The case has ignited a significant political storm. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee faced sharp criticism for her remarks questioning why the survivor was out late, with BJP Minister Sukanta Majumdar calling them insensitive.

Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi assured the survivor and her family of full support, while West Bengal Governor Dr. C. V. Ananda Bose expressed outrage, highlighting safety concerns for girls in Bengal. Medical reports have confirmed specific vaginal bleeding and deep injuries, corroborating allegations of sexual assault.
