Father remains prime suspect in Aarushi report

While the parents of murdered teenager Aarushi are fuming against the federal investigating agency, the closure report submitted by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) before a Ghaziabad court has named Rajesh Talwar, the father, the prime suspect.

The CBI said he could not be chargesheeted in the murder of Aarushi and family servant Hemraj owing to “insufficient evidence”.

Media reports quoting CBI said the “Talwars have not been cleared”.

Earlier, speaking to TV channels, Aarushi’s parents blasted the CBI and accused it of concocting everything.

“I have had enough of this. This is the second time I am going through this. This is what they do to innocent people, innocent father who has lost his child,” Dr Talwar told NDTV.

“I cannot understand this kind of investigative agency. I have no words for them,” he told the channel.

Aarushi’s mother Nupur Talwar said the CBI does not care about the girl who was brutally killed.

“Do they care about Aarushi? Do they care about my child? Aarushi is dead and gone,” Nupur Talwar said, alleging a cover-up.

The Aarushi murder case took a fresh turn on Friday with the CBI claiming that dentist couple Rajesh and Nupur Talwar tried to influence the doctor who conducted the post-mortem examination on their 14-year-old daughter in 2008.

In its 30-page closure report submitted to the Ghaziabad court, CBI has raised doubts over the role of Rajesh and Nupur in the case.

The investigating agency said that the Rajesh’s name figures as an accused in the FIR (First Information Report), but he was not chargesheeted because of insufficient evidence.

14-year-old Aarushi was murdered in the intervening night of May 15-16 in 2008 at the Talwar’s residence in Noida near Delhi.
