    Aftab Poonawala and Shraddha Walker, who stayed at a hotel in Tosh village near Kasol of Himachal Pradesh from 6 to 8 April, had made the payment together, according to transaction details that have surfaced now.  

    The police suspect that Aftab, who allegedly killed his live-in partner Shraddha in Delhi’s Chattarpur on May 18, had hatched the plan during their trip to Himachal, made just a month before the gruesome crime.

    The cops believe that it is very much possible that Aftab may have planned the killing in Kasol. They are now scanning the registers of every hotel in Kasol and Tosh. Tosh village is 30 kms from Kasol.
     
    Aftab and Shraddha had stayed at White Lots hotel in Tosh village of Himachal. They checked in on April 6 and went for trekking the next day to Kutla. They returned on April 8 and made the payment to hotel owner Kamal Chand.

    The hotel owner did not make any entry in the register but Aftab had given him his Aadhaar card. Shraddha had paid Rs 870 while Aftab made Rs 720. They used to make payments together. Chand, the owner of the hotel, said that he did not feel Shradhha was scared.      

    Aftab allegedly killed Shraddha, a native of Mumbai’s Vasai, in his rented apartment on May 18 and chopped her body into 35 pieces. Earlier this week, the police found the five knives that Aftab used to kill Shraddha.

    News agency ANI recently reported that Aaftab told the police that multiple weapons were used to dismember Shraddha’s body. In the last few days, the police have recovered five large knives, which have been sent to the forensics team for investigation, the report said citing sources.

    Aaftab and Shraddha, who met on a dating site – Bumble, were in a relationship and moved in together to a rented apartment in Chhatarpur. Shraddha’s father Vikas Walker filed a case on November 10 after he learned that his daughter’s friends were not able to connect with her. The case was first filed with the Mumbai Police, which asked the Delhi Police to probe as they were living in the city.

    Accused in the brutal Shraddha Walkar murder case Aaftab Poonawalla moved belongings in 37 boxes from his flat at White Halls Society in Evershine City in Vasai district to his residence in Delhi’s Chhatarpur area and paid Rs 20,000 for it, according to a Delhi Police official. Poonawalla told Delhi Police that he and Walkar fought about who would pay for shifting the items from their house in Palghar. 

    The officials are yet to trace the details of the account used to pay Rs 20,000 for transporting furniture and other household items through Goodluck Packers and Movers company in June. This matter came to light when a Delhi Police team recorded the statement of an employee of the packaging company in the Palghar district. 

    Delhi Police also recorded the statement of the owner of the house where Walkar and Poonawalla stayed in 2021 and the owner of the flat in Mumbai’s Mira Road area where the accused’s family was staying. Officials have also recorded the statements of four people in Palghar including two men who helped Walkar after Poonawalla assaulted her in 2020, news agency PTI reported. 

    Abdullah Khan, the secretary of the Unique Park Housing Society, where the accused Aaftab Amin Poonawalla lived with his family, told the police in his statement that Aaftab’s family vacated the house around 20 days ago and the place has been rented out. 

    The accused lived with Shraddha in three apartments including Kenny Apartment, Regal Apartment, and White Hills Apartment across Mumbai. Delhi Police will also question the staff of the five-star hotel where Poonawalla worked as a trainee chef. While two officers will question the staff about Aaftab, one officer will carry on the probe in Palghar. 

    The case came to light when Shraddha’s father Vikas Walkar filed a complaint with the Delhi Police on November 10. During the interrogation, it was revealed that Aaftab killed Shraddha on May 18 and later chopped her body into 35 pieces and put them in a fridge before dumping them in the Mehrauli forest area.

    Aftab Amin Poonawalla, who allegedly murdered his live-in partner Shraddha Walker, was restless and aggressive while talking, a surgeon who treated him in May revealed on Tuesday. Aftab had allegedly strangulated Walker and chopped her into 35 pieces on May 18, but kept it a secret till early November.

    Dr Anil Singh said that Aftab visited him in May when needed stitches on his right forearm. “He was restless, and aggressive while talking. When asked he told he sustained an injury while cutting fruits, and left after taking a prescription,” Singh said while speaking to the news agency ANI.

    Shraddha, a resident of Mumbai’s Vasai, was in a relationship with Aftab. However, her family did not approve of the relationship so she left her home to live with Poonawala. In May, they shifted to Delhi.

    Reports say that Aftab had assaulted Shraddha many times. Shraddha’s friends claim that she had almost decided to quit the relationship but somehow could not.       

    The gruesome murder came to light earlier this week when the Delhi Police arrested Poonawala based on a case filed by Shraddha’s father Vikas Walker in Mumbai. According to the police, Poonawala allegedly strangulated Shraddha after a fight. He then moved her body from the bathroom to the kitchen and then chopped her into 35 pieces. 

    The police said that he bought a 300-liter fridge to store the parts. For the next 16 days, he went out around 2 am and disposed of the parts one by one at different spots near Mehrauli jungle. 

    News agency ANI citing police sources said only one weapon was used to chop Shraddha’s body parts. Aftab had used a mini saw to chop off the body parts, the report said. The sources said that the mini saw was yet to be recovered. Aftab broke down after the police grilled him when he gave confusing timelines of when Shraddha left him. 

    The Delhi Police sources also told the news agency that one common friend of Aftab and Shraddha has been called for questioning. This is the friend who had intimated Shraddha’s father about her going incommunicado.
