Parents of murdered teenager Aarushi Talwar filed a protest petition in court against the Central Bureau of Investigations closure report in the case, alleging that there were "deliberate lapses" in the investigation besides noticeable non-mentioning of material pieces of evidence.
In this interview with Rediff.com's Sahim Salim, the Talwars' counsel, Satish Tamta, says that CBI's investigations were shoddy, have a lot of loopholes and some deliberate lapses.
The parents of Aarushi Talwar, who was killed nearly two-and-a-half years ago, moved a plea before the special Central Bureau of Investigation court in Ghaziabad on Tuesday asking for documents that the agency has filed along with its closure report.

A special court on Tuesday declined to hear the bail application of Rajesh Talwar, key accused in the Noida twin murder case, on the ground that it was not empowered to take up the plea.Special Magistrate for Central Bureau of Investigation's cases Sapna Mishra observed that the sessions court was competent to take up the bail matter of Talwar, who is at present in judicial custody.Counsel for Talwar Satish Tamta said that the defence will move the Sessions Court soon.
