New Delhi, Nov 26: Expressing dissatisfaction over the judgment of the special CBI court in the Aarushi-Hemraj murder case, the Talwar family and their lawyer said on Monday that they would appeal to a higher court.
“We are not going to give up. It is extremely prejudiced. Minds are already made. If this is the way trials are conducted, then there is no need to have trials. Nobody wants to look at the evidence.
CBI is a prestigious organisation and everybody believes in it. But nobody listens to us. But it is like 100 lies should not make truth. But unfortunately in our case, it has become a truth. There are layers and layers of lies,” said Dr Vandana Talwar, wife of Rajesh’s brother Dinesh, said.
Rajesh Talwar’s brother Dinesh said, “The CBI themselves said in the court that servants were involved in the crime. But then the agency did not provide any information to the court... So how do you expect the court to decide? We did not get justice today but we will appeal in the higher court.
The higher judiciary will correct this injustice.”
The Talwar couple’s lawyer Rebecca John said the appellate court will surely find that the two were not involved in the crime. “It is very unfortunate day. We have the right to challenge and verdict will be challenged in the higher court. When the verdict will be challenged in an appellate court, I am sure the court will have a categorical conclusion that the parents have not committed the crime,” she said.
Meanwhile, CBI lawyer RK Saini said the main thrust of the case was based on circumstantial evidence which pointed at the Talwars’ involvement in the murder case. “The Court has seen all the circumstantial evidence and agreed on it. The main thrust of the case was based on circumstantial evidence. I have done my duty. There is no question of victory or loss,” he said.
