Though Bowring Hospital’s Medical Officer Rajanna confirmed that scientific tests had been performed on Krishna, he refused to divulge the details. “As the case is being investigated by the CBI, we will not be able to reveal much on the tests and Krishna’s responses during the tests. A detailed report will be prepared by the Forensic Sciences Laboratory on the basis of the tests and submitted to the CBI”, he added.

CBI has decided to conduct scientific tests on Krishna to solve the mysterious double murder of Talwar’s 14-year-old daughter Aarushi and domestic help Hemraj on May 16 in Noida.

Krishna, the compounder of Aarushi’s father Rajesh Talwar has emerged as a suspect after CBI took over the case from Noida police following allegations of sloppy investigation.
