Agency gives credence to cops’ ‘inside hand’ theory
NEW DELHI: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Wednesday vindicated the Uttar Pradesh police’s line of approach in the Noida double murder case. After conducting a lie-detector test on Dr Rajesh Talwar, the agency said he knew where the missing mobile phones of his teenaged daughter and domestic help Hemraj are - the investigators have not been able to recover the cell phones so far.
Both Aarushi and Hemraj were murdered in the Talwars’ Noida home on the night of May 15. The CBI has now formed 10 different teams to investigate the different aspects of the case. And as the investigations are progressing, the agency is also hinting at the involvement of family members in the murders. It will soon question another doctor family, which recently returned to India from Dubai, regarding the murders.
CBI officials interrogating the dentist for the past two days said the lie-detector test had become necessary because Dr Talwar’s answers to their questions were very vague.
They were also finding it difficult to piece together the sequence of events of the night of the murders, the officials said.
“We suspected that Rajesh Talwar was not giving us the complete details of the night of the murders so we asked him to undergo a lie-detector test,” said a senior CBI official. The agency said Dr Talwar agreed to undergo the test without any complaint.
A senior CBI officer said the sleuths reconstructed the events of the intervening night of May 15-16 during the test and sought answers from Dr Talwar. “We wanted to see how Dr Talwar reacts to the reconstructions and to our questions at the time of the test. We are still in the process of analysing the results and will seek the extension of his remand when the case comes for hearing before the Ghaziabad court on June 5,” he said.
In the two days of investigations, the agency has recovered the bloodstained clothes of Aarushi, the blankets that were used to cover her body and some of the clothes of her parents.
“We have sent these things for forensic examination and will get the results soon,” added the officer.
