After remaining behind bars for nearly five months, Dentist Nupur Talwar, facing trial in the twin murder case of her daughter Aarushi and domestic aide Hemraj, was released on Tuesday evening from Dasna jail in Ghaziabad.

Earlier in the day, Special Judge A K Lal ordered Nupur's release in pursuance of a Supreme Court order which had granted her bail on September 17. The special judge ordered Nupur's release on a personal bond of Rs two lakhs with two sureties of the same amount each.

Nupur's dentist husband Rajesh Talwar, who is a co-accused in the case, has been on bail since July 11, 2008.
