Shraddha Walkar Murder: In its chargesheet, Delhi Police has claimed that Aaftab – the key accused in the case – murdered his live-in partner in a fit of rage. He attacked Shradhha since she had gone to see a friend in Gurugram against his wishes.

Aaftab Amin Poonawala allegedly sawed his live-in partner Shraddha Walkar's body into 35 pieces and kept them in a 300-liter fridge for almost three weeks at his residence in Delhi's Mehrauli before dumping them across the capital over several days.

The police sources, on Friday, informed that Aaftab Amin Poonawala, the accused in the Shraddha Walkar's murder, gave similar answers in his polygraph, narco-analysis tests and during the police interrogation. The sources suggest that there is no difference in the confessions of Poonawala during his 14 days of police custody and answers for the questions asked during his polygraph and narco analysis test.

Aaftab Poonawala`s most recent girlfriend also said that she had come to his Delhi flat twice in the month of October.

The police are yet to find Walkar's skull and some body parts as well as the weapon used to dismember her body. Earlier, the Delhi Police, along with teams from the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, pumped out water from a pond at Maidan Garhi in the Chhatarpur area after Poonawala claimed that he had thrown Walkar's severed head and some other remains there.

In a letter also marked to Union Law Minister Kiren Rijiju, BJP MLA Rajeshwar Singh demanded changes, including fast-track trial, no bail to accused and life imprisonment for rape in love jihad cases.
