Noida Double Murder Case- Lets trace the base!!!

“Things aren’t always same as they look like, it is perception that matters. What matters more is the complete knowledge of the facts, facts that should be untwisted and raw. When imagination takes over reality, what transpires is a blunder. When such blunder involves life of the people, it doesn’t remain a mere mistake but becomes a crime, a sin.”

Aarushi-Hemraj’s Noida Double Murder case is no ordinary a case. It makes for the most discussed and scrutinized criminal case of our time. It all started on the fateful night of 15-16may. Till 15^th may Dr. Rajesh Talwar was a simple dentist who taught in ITS Dental College and examined patients in Fortis Hospital and his private clinics. He did the same thing on 15^th may as well, may be for the last time ever.

Dr.NupurTalwar was also a practising doctor who visited her clinic as usual on 15^th may, picked up her daughter from school while returning back home, had lunch with Aarushi and sister-in-law Vandana. After which they both left, leaving aarushi alone. Afterwards Nupur worked in Fortis till 7.00 and returned home at night. Dr. Rajesh also returned back at 09.30pm from Hauz khaas clinic.

Aarushi’s birthday was coming. On 24^th of the same month she was going to complete 15 years of her life, the life that left her before it. Venue for celebration was booked for 18; a sleepover with her friends was planned for the weekend. Later parents were grilled by police on what was the sleepover? Why it didn’t involve any adults? What would these girls do for which they wanted complete privacy from parents?

Talwar couple had a hard time convincing about the concept of the sleepover. UP police was reluctant to give in to their explanations. Ransacking the fridge and gossiping through the night wasn’t only thing that Girls from DPS were supposed to do. No doubt DPS had left some other fantasy in their minds.

Aarushi wished to have a camera for her birthday. Dr. Rajesh had ordered it online. It reached them on 15^th itself. Nupur insisted to gift it right away as a pre-birthday surprise. It was gifted to Aarushi. She was too happy, the camera was better than what she desired. She clicked photographs enthusiastically. As any other teenager would do, she also deleted few pictures that she would have not liked. Later, parents had to make explanation for why there were not all photographs in the camera.

What exactly transpired in the intervening night of 15-16^th may is still not completely clear. What is clear is the fact that there is someone else who surely knows the answers. This person or persons, is behind the bar or free on the roads is a question that I would leave you to decide at the end of this analysis.

On the morning of 16^th may, the house maid rung the bell. Nupur Talwar woke up and showed surprise over absence of Hemraj. She threw away the keys to the maid from the balcony and told her to come inside. Then she went in to the house and started looking for Hemraj. Dr Rajesh was also awake by now; he came in the dining area and noticed a liquor bottle lying there. Alarmed, she asked Nupur to check Aarushi. He himself went in to her room while Nupur followed from behind. As per accounts they were shocked to see the condition of the room, Rajesh Screamed, Nupur was dumbstruck, by this time maid was inside the house. There was blood all around, Aarushi was lying on her bed, her throat slit, head thrashed. Rajesh started banging his head against the wall and Nupur started crying. Maid rushed out to call neighbors.

She testified about the above reactions of Rajesh and Nupur. But as it be, once the theories pointing towards the parents being the killer started floating in, to everybody else Rajesh and Nupur looked too composed to have lost a daughter.
 Just 4-5 days ago on the day of judgement I read several tweets about how composed Nupur looked on an interview she gave a few days after the tragedy. Indeed she was, she didn’t cry on camera. The senior journalist Sonia Singh who took the interview says about it, “She actually didn’t weep once in this interview and was pilloried for it! She hadn’t been tutored to cry for TV audiences”. She also has said repeatedly on the question of why Nupur was so stoical during her interview that when the camera was off she wept and wept, in a corner of the studio.

May be Nupur never knew the eager nation desperately wanted to see her emotions, she thought her facts would do, she thought it would be better to speak than cry helplessly.

People today are so used to reality television that they forget real people don’t go by scripted cues to cry. Nupur was an ordinary middle class women, she didn't knew to dramatize moments. It went away against her in the most far-fetched manner.

Now let’s start with the so called circumstantial evidences.

It all began just after a few days of finding Hemraj’s body. For police in a general case of theft or murder, the house help’s are the first suspect. Based on this notion only, when the Aarushi’s body was found and Hemraj was missing, the police promptly called it Open and Shut case and no, I insist extremely none steps were taken to record any evidence. The crime scene was in-bound for all. A murder in the posh area of a model city was a thing hot off the press. Everyone was allowed to freely roam and inspect, no area was cordoned off. Hundreds of relatives, friends, enthusiastic on-lookers and media persons blessed the crime scene with their presence. The UP police botched the case even before it became a double-murder mystery.

Soon after in a hastily called press conference a senior Police officer, who according to notion took the center stage only after seeing the huge presence of Media, unfurled the mystery. The things he talked about were similar to what you could hear at a corner tea shop from a hyperactive idle sitting Uncle ji, who takes proud in knowing everything about everything in the world.

The infamous briefing described Aarushi having an illicit affair with her 45 year old servant and Talwar’s finding them in compromising position and killing them in a jiffy of anger. There was no prime explanation offered on why did they think so, though the officer seemed confident enough and sure enough as if he knew all about the case. It’s another fact that the officer narrating this theory even forgot and misspelled the name of Aarushi several times during the briefing. But based on his unquestionable instance the case proceeded and concluded.

It was just after this that the whole country was exhaustively fed with the facts that supported the theory. For media the story of a 14 year girl and a 45 year servant involving sex and murder was too juicy to question. It was very interesting, it suited the audience. The trp’s were running high, the truth can take rest.

In India SEX is the most Taboo thing yet everyone loves everything even remotely related to it. The theory of Noida Police appropriately suited our fantasies. It gave hungry audience material to bash about the high-profile lives of the big city people that were filled with all immoral acts.

Later on it was established that No blood, No DNA, No semen nothing at all relating to presence of Hemraj in Aarushi’s room was ever found. Police said that the crime scene was dressed up and the Talwars have cleaned it. Now notice this, when Aarushi’s body was found there was blood all around her body, on bed and on walls behind her, these blood stains were there even when police arrived. Now tell me a single possible way on how the Talwar’s would have cleaned Hemraj’s blood selectively leaving behind only their daughter’s blood on display. How, how??

Also between all this bloodshed a thing that remained completely clean is the clothes of the convicts, namely Talwar couple. They were wearing same clothes the night before as in morning; it was proven by pictures taken on Aarushi’s new camera which was seized by CBI. No heed was paid to it.

Also further examinations revealed that Hemraj was murdered over the terrace, so this almost completely rules out the theory of in-a-spat of anger honour killing theory. 
It's hard to believe that even without having a single proof of even hemraj’s presence in Aarushi's room how could a police department be so naive to do the character assassination of a 14 year old dead girl so confidently?

Moving further, it was augmented in the court that how was it possible for parents to be sleeping in the room when their daughter was being murdered in the adjacent one.

First thing, the crime scene showed no sign of scuffle. Aarushi was murdered in the bed as she lay sleeping. So off-course no shouting sounds were there. And before moving to invoke evidence in this regard let’s encounter a day-to-day experience. Hasn’t it happened to you that you have been slept through in numerous calls at night? Hasn’t it ever happened that the early morning calls of maid or sweeper went unheard. It happens, its feasibly possible. I have described the schedule of talwar couple in great detail at the start to establish that it was humanly possible to sleep through the night after a hefty day at work.

Now moving to evidence, a 7 member team of AIIMS experimented and found that the AC in Dr. Talwar's room produced ample noise to make other things go unheard. That finally proves back that yes they could have been sleeping through that fateful night.

Another popular piece of evidence in public domain is the internet router being on-and-off. It was fed that as there was no power cut at night and internet activity shows these signs hence Talwars were wake till late night and were doing this. Indeed on an examination it was found that on the next day similar router activity continued when even the police was present and there was no human intervention to the router. I hope that makes it clear enough. Though I would like to tell that the router switch was there in the Aarushi’s room and the people who conceived this theory to nab the Talwars would kindly like to make me understand that what business according to them an agitated father who has just killed his only daughter and servant would have with repeatedly switching router on and off?

The irony in this case is not one but many. The case was handled by two CBI teams. If you will study the interceptions of both the teams you will find it hard to believe that both were working on the same case.

The First Team concentrated on Talwar couple as well as three friends of Hemraj namely, Krishna, RajKumar and Vijay as suspects. They also conducted several Narco analysis tests over them. Though the findings of Narco tests are not admissible in court of law but still it is used to give right direction to the case.

It was found in the narco that Talwar Couple showed no deception over their statements. They showed no knowledge of any thing about the fateful night of the murders. On the Other hand Krishna talked about his presence in the house on that night and described the details of the murder.

Following this the Krishna’s house was raided and a khukri was found with stains of blood over it. When it was sent for examination the result was amazing. CBI almost encountered an alien-found moment during the case. The study showed that this was not human blood, neither of goat, cow or chicken. They claimed inability in finding of what thing this blood was?

Next thing which was discovered from Krishna’s house was a pillow cover. It also had blood. It was sent to Hyderabad for forensic; the report which came back was revolutionary. It said the blood over the pillow was that of Hemraj. This thing, this evidence could have easily been used to bring a conclusive end to the case, but No, that isn’t what happened.

Firstly, CBI sat over this report without noticing it at all. It was only after the Talwars were made the main victim that their council got this document to study and found the revelation. A senior officer accepted that he didn't read the report as he was too busy with the investigations. No doubt the way things were going, investigation hardly was dependent on any reports.

What happened next can give your conscience and beliefs a shock. CBI blatantly passed it off as a typing error. They claimed it was found in Hemraj’s room and not Krishna’s. So according to them Krishna's Name was typed in report at the place instead of Hemraj. 
It will be amazing to know that the report was prepared by the Hyderabad laboratory and there has been no communication between the CBI and them for the past 18 months. But call it understanding or Intuition, CBI confidently knew that it was a typing error. When Hyderabad Laboratory was contacted afterwards about it, they said- if CBI believes it was a typing error than it was a typing error. 

Do u think such arguments would even hold back good in a school level debate competition? Here they were driving in the investigation of one of the most mysterious murder case in Indian history.

With the change in the CBI team everything else changed. The murder weapon was replaced from a khukri to the golf club. The Talwars voluntarily handed over their golf kit. Even one was found a very little cleaner than others and it was said that Talwars cleaned it. Ironically the golf stick that was finally presented as suspected weapon of assault by the CBI was a different one, and not the marginally cleaner one. It should be notice that when the Golf Sticks were brought in to the scene Talwars already had more than a year time to get off with them. They didn’t.

Argument was made in the court that it was impossible for servants to assemble in Hemraj’s room when Talwars were in the House. Indeed the same council also said that it was completely feasible for Aarushi to make love with Hemraj when her parents were in the next room.

Three bottles of liquors were found empty. Apparently if there was no one else in the house that night than Dr. Talwar is the person to consume it all. He had a Sula wine, a scotch and a bottle of bear on the night of murder. Large number of people who came in next morning after murder including police personal neither smelled anything as such nor encountered any signs of the hangover.

Where we stand technologically would be more clear by the facts that, there was blood over bottle of liquor; there was a full hand print of blood on the wall adjacent to hemraj’s body, but nothing could be attributed to any known person. No DNA match’s could be established. Talwars repeatedly wrote letters and requested to send the samples to foreign countries for further examination, but to no use.

Talwars were denied access to evidences, reports and narco findings during the conclusive hearing. They requested for witnesses it was denied. CBI council every time said that they were just delaying the trial. Every time a witness was denied nupur went to high court and Supreme Court. She was denied there as well.

Dr. Rajesh and Nupur Talwar were the people who pleaded for the investigations to continue even after CBI had filled it closure report, citing lack of evidence.

Finally the case came to a conclusive end. With not a shred of evidence and no particular motive the Talwars were found guilty and are imprisoned for a life term.

You would not be surprised to know that Dr. Rajesh and Nupur Talwar's lawyer has asked for and apology from Aarushi case judge for ‘overlooking’ his arguments.

Aarushi murder case is a glaring example of media’s overdoing and unethical practice. Such action of media often induces the general public to believe in the complicity of the person indicted by the media thereby putting undue pressure on the course of fair investigation by the police. Privilege of presumption of innocence to which an accused is entitled to is blatantly discarded by the media in presenting facts, often distorted and unverified and presented with angularity pointing to the involvement of the person indicted in the commission of crime.

I respect the courts verdict but with complete dignity would like to totally disagree with it.

I am not sure whether they did it or not, but my little brain with its limited capacity, after studying these facts can not digest that the theory of cucumstantial evidences pointing towards them without doubt.

Though they are criminals. Their crime is their presence in the house where two people were murdered. Their crime is they didn’t look sad enough with Indian Standards; a Mother who doesn’t weep on camera is guilty as charged. Their crime is they had faith on the system. Their crime is they believed India is a free and fair nation. Their crime is they thought investigations involved evidences. Their crime is they believed false theories won’t last long in the courts. Their crime is they wanted the murderer of their daughter nabbed.

Yes they are criminals let them rot in the jail. Next accompanying them may be I or You. Don’t think you are safe as you are very innocent and you would never do any such thing. Even then if an officer decides and writes a story involving you, your destiny would work as per his script.

Be Quiet, Enjoy At your Home, and wait for the day Until The Bug Bites You, or Raise Voice and Change Opinion, because opinions is what has probably made two innocent souls convict of murdering their piece of heart.

When we keep quiet, knowing very well that injustice is happening to others, everyone else will keep quiet when it eventually happens to us.

Share and let the world know the Truth.

(I kindly request all to share these facts as much as you can, this was a trial driven by media frenzy. Everyone knew they were guilty even before the case started. Please help in changing the perceptions, please let the truth blossom. Every attempt counts and maybe we can finally make the justice prevail)
