Allahabad: Allahabad High Court on Monday granted three weeks parole to Nupur Talwar, who is in prison on charges of murdering her 14-year-old daughter Aarushi. Nupur Talwar has been granted parole to visit her ailing mother.
Aarushi was found dead with her throat slit in her bedroom on May 16, 2008 and her dentist parents Nupur and Rajesh Talwar were found guilty of murdering her by a UP court. They were also charged with the murder of their dometic help Hemraj, whose body was later found in their terrace at Jalvayu Vihar in Noida on the outskirts of Delhi.

However, the couple who were sentenced to life in jail have appealed against their conviction and claimed that they were framed.

The case had caught the nation’s imagination and is one of the most high-profile murder cases in the country which was extensively covered by the media. Also known as the 2008 Noida-double murder case, it also served as the premise of the 2015 Bollywood movie titled Talvar which was written by Vishal Bhardwaj.
