Court orders Nupur Talwar's release

Ghaziabad, Sep 25 (PTI): A Central Bureau of Investigation Court on Tuesday ordered the release on bail of dentist Nupur Talwar, who is facing trail in the murders of her daughter Aarushi and domestic help Hemraj.

Special Judge A K Lal ordered Nupur Talwar's release in pursuance of a Supreme Court's order, which had granted her bail on September 17, stipulating that she should be released by Tuesday, September 25.

After granting her bail, the apex court had put off her release by a week to enable CBI to get its remaining material witnesses examined by the trial court, which is currently recording the prosecution evidence.

The special judge ordered Nupur's release on a personal bond of Rs two lakhs with two sureties of the same amount.

Nupur, who had been kept at Dasna jail in Ghaziabad, Nupur is expected to be released by late Tuesday evening.

Nupur has been in jail since her surrender before the Ghaziabad court on April 30. She had got bail on September 17 from the apex court, which she had moved challenging the Allahabad High Court's order which had dismissed her bail plea on May 31. Earlier, the trial court had denied her bail on May 2.

Her dentist husband Rajesh Talwar, who is a co-accused in the case, has been on bail since July 11, 2008.

14-year-old Aarushi was found dead in her bedroom at the Talwar's residence in Jalvayu Vihar, Noida, on the intervening night of May 16-17, 2008. The body of Hemraj was found on May 17 on the terrace.
