Aarushi murder: Dr Talwar released from jail

Saturday, July 12, 2008



Dr Rajesh Talwar, accused of murdering his own daughter Aarushi and his domestic help Hemraj, was released on Saturday after spending 50 days in jail.

On Friday, the CBI said that they have no evidence against him.

It was an emotional reunion for the Talwar family as Dr Talwar walked out of the jail. He was received by his wife Nupur Talwar and his brother Dinesh Talwar.

Dr Talwar visited a temple on their way home after coming out of the jail. He spoke very briefly to the media saying that he planned no action against Noida police. His brother Dinesh Talwar asked mediapersons, who were available in full strength, to give them some time.

''Give us some time. Don't you understand our situation? Please bear with us,'' said Dinesh.

Speaking about Dr Talwar's life in the Dasna Jail, jailor Ramji Singh said, ''He used to lead a very simple life. He was fond of drinking tea and reading newspapers. Everyday he would do yoga for 15 to 20 minutes. He wanted to put his expertise as a dentist to proper use in the jail. There was a dentist's chair that we got repaired so that he could use it. We are very happy that he is released. When asked about Aarushi, he used to break down and cry.''

In jail he underwent not only rigorous interrogation by the UP police and the CBI but also a trial by the media.

He lost everything, his job, his reputation and worst of all, he did not even get a chance to grieve for his daughter because he was thrown into jail, just days after her brutal murder.

The Aarushi-Hemraj double murder case took a new turn on Friday with a court giving bail to Dr Talwar after the CBI told the court there was no evidence against him.

The CBI also pointed out that the UP police, which had first arrested him also had no evidence against him. The UP police had made several innuendos about the character of Dr Talwar and Aarushi Talwar.
