Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Mahua Moitra is facing a barrage of criticism online after her comments regarding the autopsy report in the recent Kolkata rape case. Moitra took to X.com to clarify details from the autopsy conducted at RG Kar Medical College, where she stated that the examination, conducted in the presence of a judicial magistrate and three doctors, showed no fractures to the pelvic girdle or other bones of the victim.
In her post, Moitra emphasized that the 150 grams mentioned in the report referred to the weight of the inner and outer genitalia, not, as she put it, "an imaginary amount of fluid," and that the findings did not suggest involvement of multiple assailants.

Moitra's comments were met with significant backlash, with many social media users accusing her of attempting to downplay the severity of the crime and engaging in a 'cover-up.' The MP urged the public not to spread misinformation, asserting that her statements were based on verified medical findings.
Despite her clarifications, the situation remains contentious, with critics continuing to question the transparency and integrity of the investigation.
