Parents to consult lawyers
NEW DELHI, Dec 30
Lamenting that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) failed to “properly investigate” Aarushi Talwar murder case, Law Minister M Veerapa Moily today said he would take a “serious” look into “how such a lapse” took place.
“Such a brutal murder case cannot be properly investigated and the accused not traced. I will definitely, seriously look into it,” Moily told PTI here.
He said while he was not referring to any proposed changes in existing laws but as a law minister he would look at “how such a lapse” took place.
CBI had yesterday filed a closure report in the Aarushi murder case before a court on the grounds there was no available evidence at the crime scene to pursue the probe, meeting a dead-end in the case that shook the country over two years back.
Meanwhile, upset with the CBI filing a closure report, the parents of murdered teenager Aarushi Talwar today said they will consult with their lawyers before deciding on their future course of action to take the case forward.
“Our lawyers have not yet read the closure report and, hence, we cannot say anything. As a mother I would say that we won’t rest in peace till the case moves forward,” said Nupur.
