SC rejects Talwars' review plea in Aarushi murder
June 07, 2012  10:45

The Supreme Court has dismissed the review petition of Rajesh and Nupur Talwar, asking for the trial to be quashed against them. The SC says they find no merit to review the case.  

Nupur Talwar had filed a petition, asking the court to quash the case against her and her husband Rajesh Talwar in the trial court, which has framed charges against them for murdering their daughter Aarushi and domestic help Hemraj in May 2008.

The Talwars, who are both dentists, are accused of murder and destruction of evidence, and the case for their trial in the twin murder case is pending at a Ghaziabad sessions court. Nupur Talwar had appealed to the Supreme Court to cancel their trial.

The bench of Justice AK Patnaik and Justice JS Khehar had on May 16 reserved the order after hearing the contentions of Mrs Talwar and the CBI which had strongly opposed her plea.
