A special CBI court in Ghaziabad on Wednesday issued a non-bailable warrant (NBW) against murdered Aarushi Talwar's mother Nupur Talwar for failing to make an appearance in the court during hearing of the case.

The court issued the warrant after the CBI demanded the same due to her non appearance.Aarushi's father Rajesh Talwar was present in court for the hearing and an order was awaited.

The special CBI court had on March 14 asked Nupur to appear in court within 30 days. But the Talwars' counsel sought exemption on the basis of a pending plea in the Supreme Court against facing trial.

The Talwars had sought a review of the Supreme Court order directing them to face trial in the murder of their daughter and domestic help Hemraj on the May 13, 2008.

Their review petition will be heard by the apex court on April 27.
