IIM Calcutta 'Rape' Case: Girl ‘Did Not Cooperate’, Accused Granted Bail on ₹50,000 Bond

KOLKATA, JUL 18 – The accused student was granted interim bail after the complainant repeatedly skipped court and has not cooperated with the investigation, raising doubts on the case's progress.

  • On July 19, 2025, a court at Alipore granted interim bail to an IIM-Calcutta student accused of raping a woman on campus on July 11 in Kolkata.
  • The accused was taken into custody after the woman filed a complaint at the Haridevpur police station on July 11, and on July 13, the police set up a nine-member Special Investigation Team to look into the case.
  • Investigation details include the woman's claim of being raped after being called for a counselling session, discrepancies in her timeline, and police seeking CCTV footage from July 11 to verify movements.
  • The court granted bail on a Rs 50,000 bond, directing the student to surrender his passport and not leave the state without permission, while noting the victim's limited cooperation in the investigation.
  • The case’s outcome suggests ongoing investigation challenges due to the victim’s unavailability and conflicting claims, with the SIT continuing to probe despite the bail order.
