Aaftab Poonawala crushed Shraddha Walkar's remains with a stone and threw away the resultant powder. The Delhi Police say that he finally threw away her head after three months.?
The charge sheet for the notorious fridge murder in Delhi is 6,600 pages long and covers several gory details.
¡°To eliminate her habit of quarreling and abusing forever, I grabbed her and dropped her on the floor to kill her. Sitting on her chest, I held her throat tight with both my hands until she died. Her body was hidden in the bathroom. Then I planned to dispose of her dead body by cutting it into small pieces and putting it in a big briefcase, and throwing it somewhere. I also bought a hammer, a horizontal saw, and three blades. After coming home, I cut both hands of Shraddha¡¯s dead body with a wrist saw and kept it in polythene in the bathroom,¡± the charge sheet revealed Aaftab¡¯s statement.
With her partner Aaftab Poonawala, Shraddha Walkar relocated to Delhi in May last year.?
However, they had a rocky relationship marked by frequent disagreements over money and Aftaab Poonawala's numerous girlfriends.?
They were scheduled to leave for Mumbai on May 18, but Aaftab Poonawala abruptly canceled their flight. After another argument ensued about money, Poonawala suffocated her.
According to the charge sheet, he considered putting the body in a plastic bag and disposing of it.?
He bought a bag but thought he'd be caught. Finally, he bought a saw, a hammer, and three knives to chop up the body. Later, he used a blowtorch to separate the fingers.
Poonawala had Shraddha Walkar's phone. After May 18, Google data showed her account was running from his phone. According to the charge sheet, he disposed of her smartphone and lipstick in Mumbai.?
Less than 20 fragments of Shraddha Walkar's body have been found. Police still haven't been able to recover her head.?
However, Poonawala's confessions may not be acceptable. His original confession to the police cannot be used in court. Only a magistrate can use an arrested person's confession.
Using forensic science, the police had to corroborate every step.
