The charge sheet for the notorious fridge murder in Delhi is 6,600 pages long and covers several gory details.
The police charge sheet said that Aaftab sat on Shraddha¡¯s chest and strangled her to death. He then chopped her body into pieces and stored them in the kitchen and fridge.
¡°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.
According to the charge sheet, he dated women "from Delhi to Dubai."
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.
The fridge held the 35-piece body. According to the charge sheet, Poonawala would remove the packages from the refrigerator and keep them in the kitchen when his girlfriends visited.
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.
Late last year, Aaftab Poonawala allegedly confessed to murdering Shraddha in polygraph and narco-analysis tests. The charge sheet indicates he felt remorse.
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.
