There is a strong possibility that (the) incident was caused by some outsider, a bench comprising justices B K Narayana and A K Mishra said, upholding the Talwars' appeal against the CBI court verdict. / PTI IMAGE

With the acquittal, the central question in the bizarre mystery resurfaces - who killed the 14-year-old girl and the 45-year-old man. / PTI IMAGE

The 263-page verdict ends, at least for now, the nine- year ordeal of the Noida couple who were sentenced to life by a Ghaziabad CBI court on November 28, 2013 for the double murder that not only transfixed but also shook the nation with its element of filicide. / PTI IMAGE

While acquitting the two, the court said that “neither the circumstances nor the evidence was enough to hold them guilty”. / PTI IMAGE
