Bulletin: Rajesh and Nupur Talwar: India; Case called "a tragedy of errors" as a new account raises questions over the investigation; Review of Avirook Sen book by Radha Kapoor-Sharma, who writes, in The Indian Express, "I took a special interest in the case because soft-spoken, reserved Nupur Talwar, who worked a lot with children, was also my dentist. At the Khan Market dental clinic that I went to, she was recommended to me as having the gentlest hand of all, as she simply could not bear to cause a child any pain."... "Every Indian needs to read Sen’s book with an open mind to gauge for himself/herself the enormity of the injustice done to the Talwars. And every Indian, even one who is not particularly interested in the Aarushi case, needs to read Sen’s book as it is also an incisive commentary into the appalling ethics and methods of working of some of India’s “experts” and leading institutions." (Must Read; HL);

"Like many in India, I was transfixed by the news of the double murder of 14-year old Aarushi Talwar and the Talwar’s live-in household help, Hemraj, in Noida. I watched in disbelief, and later incredulous horror, at the curious twists and turns the case took until it ended in the conviction of the dentist couple by a lower court and their sentencing to life imprisonment. I took a special interest in the case because soft-spoken, reserved Nupur Talwar, who worked a lot with children, was also my dentist. At the Khan Market dental clinic that I went to, she was recommended to me as having the gentlest hand of all, as she simply could not bear to cause a child any pain.........However, if the Talwars continue to be incarcerated pending the hearing of their appeal in due course by the Allahabad High Court – and this is likely to take several years – it would be a case of justice delayed. Maybe the honourable Supreme Court will take suo motu cognizance of Sen’s book and the fact that the judgment was being written even before the Defence had the opportunity to present all its closing arguments, and take corrective action. With every additional day that the Talwars languish in jail for a crime they did not commit, the system and we who unquestioningly support the system are guilty of perpetuating a glaring injustice. Justice for Aarushi and Hemraj cannot be delivered if the innocent are jailed and the guilty go scot-free."
