Overview
- A CCTV clip shared by opposition leader Suvendu Adhikari depicts former IPS officer and TMC MLA Humayun Kabir kicking and punching Assistant Registrar Pralay Chakraborty inside his Salt Lake office.
- The footage, reportedly sourced from WBUHS CCTV cameras, went viral on July 7 after being posted on X but has not been independently verified by investigators.
- Neither the West Bengal University of Health Sciences administration nor the state police has opened a formal investigation or issued a public response.
- Trinamool Congress spokesperson Kunal Ghosh said he was unaware of the incident and Kabir has been unreachable amid growing demands for action.
