The Delhi police, who are investigating the Shraddha Walkar’s murder, suspect that accused Aftab Poonawala is lying about the exact date and time of the killing. He had told the police that he killed Walkar on May 18 after an argument over marriage. The cops believe that the murder could have happened between May and June, and then he dumped her body parts over several months.
“We never said that Walkar was killed on May 18; it was based on a statement given by the accused, and we are challenging it. Based on some technical details, we suspect it may have happened between May and June,” an officer said.
