New Delhi: After spending four years in jail, Rajesh Talwar and Nupur Talwar walked out of Dasna jail on Monday. The dentist couple were last week acquitted by the Allahabad High Court in the Aarushi-Hemraj murder case.

They had been lodged in Ghaziabad’s Dasna Jail since 2013, after the CBI court sentenced them to life imprisonment for the murder of their daughter, Aarushi, and domestic help Hemraj.

Rajesh Talwar’s brother Dinesh Talwar and their lawyers Manoj Sisodia and Tanveer Ahmed Mir went to the Dasna Jail to receive them. Police escorted the couple to Nupur’s parents’ house in Noida’s Jalvayu Vihar, the same locality where they stayed when their daughter and their domestic help were murdered in 2008.

The couple had challenged the CBI court’s order in the Allahabad High Court. The High Court had last week set aside the CBI court judgment allowing the patents of Aarushi to walk free.

Talking to media after their release, Talwars’ lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said, “Allahabad HC’s decision is a stamp on the innocence of Rajesh and Nupur Talwar. This is what they deserved.”

During their time in jail, the Talwars revived a defunct dental clinic and attended to patients every day of the week.
