Aarushi’s dad to stay on bail, no arrest now
The Supreme Court on Monday told the CBI that dentist Rajesh Talwar, who will stand trial for the mysterious May 2008 murder of his teenaged daughter Arushi in Noida, along with his wife Nupur, cannot be arrested despite non-bailable warrants issued by the Ghaziabad special judge as he continues to be on bail granted in July 2008.
The court’s explanation on the status of Dr Talwar’s bail, on which the CBI raised doubts, comes as a major relief to him.
This apparently would also help his wife to get bail when she appears before the trial court on February 4 as an accused for the first time along with her husband.
