CJM Sent Rajkanya Barua To 14 Days Judicial Custody

The court in it order has said that she will be lodged in Guwahati central jail and no VIP treatment would be provided to her.

The state police have booked her under Sections 279, 294, 388 and 353 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

Earlier, after GNRC's senior doctor Dr Navanil Baruah was served notice by police for allegedly trying to save Rajkanya Baruah by admitting her to the ICU, the doctor now claims that he had no knowledge of who the model was and says that he was not trying to save her. Denying all allegations, the doctor said, "I didn't even know her. I was not trying to save her." Dr Navanil Baruah made those statements while addressing the media at the Dispur Police Station.

As per reports, the doctor said during police interrogation that he was threatened by Rajkanya who said that she would end her life in the hospital if the doctor does not admit her to the ICU. "She messaged me in WhatsApp to admit her in ICU," the doctor added. Dr Navanil Baruah was later called in for questioning by the Dispur Police for allegedly providing fake medical reports to Rajkanya Baruah and admitting her to the hospital without any severe health issue.

Rajkanya Baruah was arrested after she injured nine labourers on the night of October 1 when she was driving in an inebriated state. All the nine labourers had been admitted to the GMCH. However, one of the labourers had lost his leg.
