Aarushi killing: Talwars want brakes on their deposition

Ghaziabad  :  Murdered teenager Aarushi Talwar’s parents and accused – dentists Rajesh and Nupur – Tuesday filed an application in a court here seeking adjournment of the process of recording of their statements.

The two accused — suspected to be involved in the killing of their 14-year-old daughter and domestic help Hemraj — sought the adjournment from Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Special Judge S. Lal on the plea that they had filed a special leave petition in Supreme Court over the matter.

The accused, both of whom are out on bail, said they moved the apex court as the trial court rejected their pleas to summon former CBI joint director Arun Kumar and 12 other witnesses.

Judge Lal reserved the order for Wednesday.

Aarushi was found murdered at her parents’ Noida residence May 16, 2008. The body of Hemraj was found the next day on the terrace of the house.
