Talwars' lawyers receive copy of Allahabad HC order

It will be provided to a special CBI court in Ghaziabad on Monday, which will then issue an order to the Dasna prison authorities to release the couple, one of the Talwars' lawyers said.

New Delhi, October 14: The lawyers of Talwar couple have received a certified copy of the Allahabad High Court order acquitting the dentist couple in the murder case of their daughter Aarushi and domestic help Hemraj.

It will be provided to a special CBI court in Ghaziabad on Monday, which will then issue an order to the Dasna prison authorities to release the couple, one of the Talwars' lawyers said.

Rajesh and Nupur Talwar are lodged in the Dasna prison in Ghaziabad since November 2013 after they were awarded life sentence in the case.

Courts in Ghaziabad observe a holiday on second Saturdays.

The order's copy was received late last evening.

"We have received a certified copy of the order of the Allahabad High Court. It is expected that they (Rajesh and Nupur) will walk out of the jail on Monday," Vandana Talwar, Aarushi's aunt, told PTI.

The Allahabad High Court acquitted Talwar couple in the sensational double murder case earlier this week.
