STORY: "Was a Top Forensic Doctor Who Found Talwars ‘Innocent’ Silenced?, by reporter Sumegha Gulati, published by 'The Quint' on July 30, 2015.
SNAPSHOT: "Leading Forensic Psychologist Dr. Vaya who examined the suspects in the Aarushi case says she found the Talwars ‘innocent’. Dr. Vaya claims her findings clearly show that the Talwars were not involved. Dr. Vaya did not give a ‘conclusive, definitive’ clean chit to the servants. Dr. Vaya’s findings were shunted out and she was never called to court to submit the clinching forensic evidence."
GIST: "Currently Director (R&D) at the Raksha Shakti University in Gandhinagar, Dr. Vaya is a pioneer in forensic psychology in India.
She was Dean
and Director of the Institute of Behavioural Sciences in the Gujarat
Forensic Sciences University, the first in India to start an M.Phil and
PG Diploma in Forensic Psychology. Dr. Vaya set up the Forensic Psychology Division at the Forensic Science Laboratory in Ahmedabad in 1988. She
is credited with establishing procedures to interrogate suspects using
the latest methods in forensic psychology. She is an expert at forensic
statement analysis, crime scene profiling, behavior profiling,
polygraph examination, narcoanalysis, brain signature profiling, and
layered voice analysis. Speaking to The Quint from Gandhinagar, Dr. Vaya said she was “always clear” the Talwars were “innocent” in the case. "I
had personally examined Talwars as well as Rajkumar (the domestic help
of the Talwar’s family friends, the Duranis). My findings had shown that
the Talwars were not involved. They were innocent. However, I could not
say that about Rajkumar. My opinion about him was not definitive. It
was not clear to me if he was innocent or involved or lying." However, Dr. Vaya was never approached again after she submitted her findings. "Once
we submit the report, how the investigating agencies use it is their
choice. The prosecution of a case is a different ballgame altogether.
There are many aspects. But it’s true I was not called for (submitting)
evidence in court.""
