The development came days after the CBI assured the Supreme Court that it would not go ahead with Nupur Talwar’s arrest till her plea against the non-bailable warrant (NBW) is pending in the apex court.
The non-bailable warrant was issued against her by the special Ghaziabad court for not appearing for a hearing in the 2008 Aarushi-Hemraj double murder case.
In a desperate bid to evade her arrest, dentist Nupur Talwar had moved the Supreme Court challenging the non-bailable warrant issued against her by a Ghaziabad trial court.
The CBI had carried out searches at her premises in Delhi and neighbouring Noida on April 11 following the warrant issued against her, but had not been able to locate her.
The body of Aarushi was found with her throat slit at their Noida residence in May 2008. The body of their domestic help Hemraj was recovered from the terrace of the house hours later.
Investigation in the case was handed over to the CBI following public outrage over shoddy probe by the Uttar Pradesh police.
The CBI submitted its closure report last year in which it did not name the Talwar couple as an accused.
However, the special court at Ghaziabad decided to go ahead with the trial holding that there was enough evidence against them.
