Summary

Hey Spooky Squad! Welcome back to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour. Today, we’re traveling to Kolkata, India, to uncover a story that’s as heartbreaking as it is infuriating—the murder of Dr. Moumita, allegedly at the hands of another hospital worker, Sanjay Roy. In 2023, the young doctor’s brutal death sent shockwaves across India, igniting public outrage and sparking powerful conversations about women’s safety, gender-based violence, and systemic silence. As activists and students flooded the streets with the Reclaim the Night movement, demanding justice for Moumita, many began to question how deeply patriarchy and corruption run within the very systems meant to protect women. Was this tragedy the result of one man’s violence—or a reflection of a society that still fails to value women’s lives? Grab your coffee and your curiosity, and remember to stay spooky, y’all! ** CORRECTION TO ADD: the suicide loss survivor community has update the verbiage from "committed" to "died of". This episode was recorded prior to that correction, but it will be fixed in future episodes. We appreciate the community for letting us know and will adjust that in all future cases!* * Case Notes: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/kolkata-doctor-rape-murder-post-mortem-report-highlights-brutal-assault-confirms-multiple-injuries-signs-of-struggle/articleshow/112484225.cms https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Kolkata_rape_and_murder#cite_note-livemint-18 https://www.businesstoday.in/india/story/kolkata-rape-murder-case-150-mg-of-semen-found-in-doctors-body-doctors-say-it-could-be-gang-rape-441513-2024-08-14 https://www.instagram.com/turf_supper_club/?hl=en Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scream-and-sugar-true-crime…
