In a sensational turn, police on Friday arrested Rajesh Talwar for allegedly killing his daughter Arushi and domestic help Hemraj in their residence last week possibly because both of them knew about his extra-marital affairs and the two victims themselves shared a close relationship.

Exactly a week after the girl`s murder came to light, Meerut Zone Inspector General Gurdarshan Singh told a press conference that Talwar was arrested after enough evidence was gathered, including the `strenuous cover-up` attempts by the dentist.
