Court allows Narco test on Aarushi's parents - India News and Travel Times Provides India-centric and other News and Features

A Ghaziabad court on Tuesday gave permission to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to conduct narco tests on Aarushi's parents Rajesh and Nupur Talwar. However, the date of narco test is not finalised. The Aarushi murder case, which rocked the country a year and a half ago, returned to the spotlight on Monday, with the CBI seeking permission from the court. The court heard the CBI's application, which said its probe team found fresh clues, requiring the Talwars to undergo narco tests. Earlier, the CBI had recovered Aarushi''s phone Nokia N-72 by tracking the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number six months after the murder. The CBI questioned Aarushi''s family with respect to the recovered phone, but what remains a mystery is how the phone reached Bulandshahar. In June 2008, the CBI arrested three men, including Krishna, a helper at Talwar's dental clinic, for Aarushi's arrest. The other two men worked as domestic helpers in the Talwars' neighbourhood. However, three months later, all three men were granted bail when the CBI admitted it had no hard evidence against them. Aarushi was found murdered in her Noida home on May 15, 2008. Their domestic help Hemraj was later found dead on the rooftop.
