Ghaziabad: Rajesh Talwar, arrested for the alleged murder of his teenaged daughter Aarushi and domestic help last month, was on Thursday remanded in 14 days' judicial custody. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), probing the sensational double murder, told the special court that it did not require Talwar for questioning any more.
The CBI produced the dentist before Special Judge (CBI) Sapna Mishra's court in Ghaziabad. The court took Talwar into judicial custody and sent him to Dasna jail.
The CBI in its application before the court stated that "the agency does not further require any custody remand of Dr Talwar, therefore it is submitting the person before the court".
Earlier, the CBI had demanded five days' custody remand of Talwar, telling the court that "Talwar was not cooperating in the investigation".
