Naresh Yadav, advocate of Rajkumar, one of the domestic helps, on Thursday asserted that he will challenge the Allahabad High Court's order in Aarushi Talwar murder case in the Supreme Court.

"We will move the Supreme Court against the High Court's order. It is a fight for poor people. Hemraj's family never wanted Talwar's to go scot-free. We will continue the fight," he told ANI.

The Allahabad High Court acquitted the parents of Aarushi Talwar , setting aside the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court's earlier order.

A special CBI Judge, S. Lal, had earlier held Aarushi's parents, Rajesh and Nupur Talwar, guilty of conspiracy and murder of 14-year-old Aarushi and domestic help Hemraj.

 

The order, however, failed to bring a closure to the case and the public opinion remained divided, even after years of the conviction.

A High Court bench, comprising Justice B.K. Narayana and Justice A.K. Mishra, had reserved its verdict, in September, in the appeal filed by Aarushi's parents, who were sentenced to life in jail.
