The Supreme Court on Friday admitted the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) appeal against the exoneration of Rajesh and Nupur Talwar in the murder of their daughter Aarushi Talwar and help hemraj.
A special CBI court in the year 2013 had convicted Rajesh and Nupur Talwar for the murders and they were sentenced to life in jail.
