23 Nov 2017 11:00pm
The Talwars are serving a life sentence for the double murder of their daughter and house-help. As they appeal against their conviction in the High Court, the producers of this documentary track down former suspects, and speak with international experts. What will they find?
About the Show

In 2008, Aarushi Talwar, a 14-year-old schoolgirl is found murdered in her bedroom. A day later, the body of the prime suspect - the family’s 45-year-old Nepalese help - is discovered on the terrace of the same flat. Who wanted them dead and why?

5 ½ years later, a Trial Court sentences Aarushi’s parents to life imprisonment. It becomes one of India’s most controversial verdicts. "Aarushi – Beyond Reasonable Doubt" is a 4-part documentary series that reopens the Aarushi Case diaries to separate fact from fiction. The murders. The motive. The media. The murder weapon. The blood on the stairs.

The series draws on the voices of investigators, lawyers, family and friends, crucial witnesses, and journalists who give their versions of truth. It pitches the prosecution against the defence, and the believers against the skeptics. Produced in over more than one year, what emerges is a fascinating story of loss, anger, rivalry, helplessness, justice and retribution.
