Aaftab Poonawala, the prime accused in the Shraddha Walker murder case, disposed off the blade and saw he used to chop up the body of his live-in partner Shraddha Walker into the bushes in Gurugram’s DLF Phase 3, Delhi Police sources said on Tuesday.
Delhi Police sources further said that the accused Aaftab threw the cleaver knife he used in chopping up the body into a garbage dump in the Mehrauli area.
A Delhi Police team has so far conducted searches, twice, in the forest area in Gurugram to recover the search of the blade and saw. “On the first day of the investigation on 18 November, the Delhi Police team found some evidence from the bushes of Gurugram, which has been sent for Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) investigation. However, on the second day on 19 November of the investigation the Delhi Police searched with a metal detector but did not find anything there,” said sources.
They further said that the Delhi Police also took Aaftab to the shop from where he had bought the saw blade, which is 250 meters away from his house.
