Noida police on Friday took dentist Rajesh Talwar to Haridwar to look for leads into the sensational Aarushi murder case, a private news channel reported on Friday.
Dr Rajesh Talwar, Aarushi's father, is accused of killing his teenaged daughter Aarushi and his domestic help Hemraj.
Police interrogated the priest who helped the Talwars perform the puja in Haridwar after 14-year-old Aarushi's death. The priest was questioned in the presence of Dr Talwar for around 15 minutes.
Dr Talwar was sent on three-day police remand on May 27. He will be produced before a Ghaziabad court as his remand ends on Friday.
Earlier, Dr. Talwar's lawyer had filed contempt petition against police alleging that they had taken Talwar to an undisclosed location without informing his lawyers which was in violation of the court's order.
The contempt petition was filed at the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate AK Singh, claiming that police had not adhered to a direction that a lawyer should be present during the interrogation of Dr. Talwar.
The judge had asked for a lawyer's presence during the interrogation of Dr. Talwar after defence lawyers expressed apprehension that the dentist could be tortured in custody.
