2"The Others"18:558 May 2016 (2016-05-08)

"Suspicion turned to Hemraj when Aarushi was found dead, but when Hemraj's body was discovered, it became a closed-door mystery."

[10]
3"Tafteesh"20:2815 May 2016 (2016-05-15)
"Talwar house was a treasure trove of clues. Everything the investigators needed, was right there. But all was overlooked or botched."[11]
4"CBI Team 1"19:3622 May 2016 (2016-05-22)
"CBI takes over and tries to make sense out of the botched investigation. Another mystery unfolds and soon after, they are replaced."[12]
5"CBI Team 2"21:375 June 2016 (2016-06-05)
"The CBI Team 2 was not interested in finding new evidence. Instead, they went back to UP Police's investigation."[13]
6"The Scoop"24:1712 June 2016 (2016-06-12)
"Aarushi's mother did not cry while on an interview. Hence the Noida murders became a source of entertainment instead of just news."[14]

"Inconclusive CBI report, dubious witnesses and mystery of pillowcases: The trial of the murders was as strange as the case had been."[15]

"Justice has formally been served in the Aarushi-Hemraj case. But even a cursory look at it today reveals the cracks in the system."[16]
