Aftab Poonawala had carefully planned how to dispose of Shraddha Walkar’s body parts after he murdered her, as per the Mehrauli police in Delhi who are investigating the case. Delhi cops have also learnt that in a bid to avoid being tracked and getting caught, he had left his mobile phone at home whenever he left to dump the body parts and studied how to destroy evidence. This meticulous planning is making it hard for cops to connect the dots and arrive at a proper sequence of events. 

Cops said that Poonawala not only took inspiration from crime series like Dexter, but also studied how to destroy evidence so that law enforcement agencies are not able to pin the crime on him due to lack of hard evidence even if the murder is discovered.
