Fair Hope: Aarushi was found murdered in her Noida home in 2008</td></tr></tbody></table> On Monday, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) sought permission to conduct narco analysis tests on Rajesh and his wife Nupur Talwar. According to the CBI counsel, the newly constituted team of the investigating agency has found some fresh clues and narco tests on Rajesh and Nupur Talwar are a must to take the probe further. Suresh Batra, the CBI counsel, submitted an application before Judicial Magistrate (CBI) Priti Singh in Ghaziabad requesting the agency be allowed to conduct the tests. "We have got some new evidence in the case. So we moved the court and sought its approval," Batra said. Meanwhile, speaking to MiD DAY, Rajesh Talwar said, "I don't know the reason behind conducting the narco test after so many years of the murder. We have already lost hope. We are clueless, what new evidence have they found in the case?" "Last week, the CBI contacted me for conducting the narco test. I am ready to go through any test," Talwar said. Case rewind Aarushi was found murdered along with Hemraj in her Noida house on May 16, 2008. The CBI named several people as the accused, including her father Rajesh Talwar, but failed to chargesheet anyone. Rajesh Talwar has already been subjected to a lie-detector test. Talwar's counsel Satish Tamta opposed the CBI plea, saying the final reports have already been submitted in the case and the parents have been found innocent. "The CBI is under intense pressure from the media to bring out the truth. Under this pressure it is trying to implicate the Talwars falsely. At present they are ill," said Tamta. The local court heard the arguments of both sides but reserved its order till Tuesday.
