New Delhi  :  The Talwar family expressed dissatisfaction over the judgment of the special CBI court Monday holding Rajesh and Nupur Talwar guilty of killing their only daughter Aarushi and domestic help Hemraj in 2008 and said they will appeal to a higher court.

“CBI informed the court that Aarushi and Hemraj’s neck was slit by a scalpel, a surgical blade, but the injury was made with an object like cleaver,” he added.

Dinesh Talwar claimed there were much evidence was not produced before the court.

“We could not get justice today, now we will move to higher court,” he said.
