Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court reviewed the closure report submitted by the CBI in the double murder case of Aarushi Talwar and Hemraj, emphasizing that the evidence presented was insufficient to establish guilt beyond reasonable doubt. The Court highlighted critical shortcomings in the investigation, including the absence of blood evidence linking the accused to the crime scene and the lack of recovery of murder weapons. Ultimately, the Court upheld the CBI's closure report, affirming that no charges could be sustained against Dr. Rajesh Talwar and others due to the lack of conclusive evidence.
