Dr.Rajesh Talwar seems to have cleared his name in the sensational twin murder case that has rocked the Indian capital of New Delhi for nearly two months now. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) says there is no evidence against him, and he was granted bail Friday.

Aarushi, a class 9 student of Delhi Public School (Noida) was found dead with her throat slit in her family's Jal Vayu Vihar apartment on May 16. The police initially named domestic help Hemraj as the prime accused but his own dead body was found on the building's terrace the next day.

Aarushi's dentist father Rajesh Talwar was arrested on May 23. The police claimed he killed Aarushi in a fit of rage as he objected to her closeness to Hemraj, but the family denied the allegations.

On June 1, the investigations were turned over to the CBI from the Uttar Pradesh state police (under whose jurisdiction Noida falls). Dr.Talwar’s wife, Nupur, also a dentist, came under the scanner for a time. The CBI seemed to feel they were hiding something from them. Both of them were inside the house at the time of the murder of their daughter, but both said they had not heard any noise nor suspected anything untoward till they discovered the body several hours later.

The body of domestic help Hemraj was discovered by the police the next day on the terrace of the same house, but the Talwars did not utter a word about him nor would they explain how come they did not look for him after they found the body of Aarushi.
