A Delhi Police team investigating Shraddha Waqar’s murder visited the office of a private firm in Gurugram where accused Aftab Amin Poonawala worked, officials said on Friday. After the search, the police were seen carrying a plastic bag containing the items recovered from the bushes around the office. However, officials did not say anything about the contents of the bag.
The accused used to work in private firms after he and Walker shifted from Mumbai to the national capital, they said.
According to police, Poonawalla strangled 27-year-old Walker to death on May 18 and cut his body into 35 pieces, which he kept in a 300-litre fridge at his residence in south Delhi’s Mehrauli for about three weeks past midnight. According to police sources, the saw was allegedly bought from a shop on the Mehrauli-Gurgaon road.
Police have so far recovered 13 body parts, mostly bones.
A team of Delhi Police visited Gurugram on Friday to collect evidence related to the investigation, an official said. The premises of the office of the accused were also searched to find any parts around his dismembered body, murder weapon or anything related to the case which may prove important in the investigation.
Poonawala will be taken to Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand and other places in the next few days to establish the sequence of events that may have led to Walker’s murder. A Delhi court extended the Poonawala police by five more days.
After leaving Mumbai, Walker and Poonawalla traveled to several places. The police will visit these places along with Poonawalla to ascertain whether anything happened during those trips to trigger the murders.
Poonawala and Shraddha Walker met each other through an online dating application. Later they started working in the same call center in Mumbai and fell in love. But their families objected to the relationship as they were of different religions, prompting the couple to move to Mehrauli earlier this year.
