As Aftab submitted that he cannot recollect memory of the incident as several weeks have passed. However, he will inform the police whenever he does.
"Aftab said he cannot recall everything at once but will inform as he does. He used a single word for victim and said he was provoked. Police will probably take him for site visit for evidence collection. Narco test soon," informed the accused.
Aftab Amin Poonawalla killed his live-in partner Shraddha Walker and then chopped her body into 35 pieces, dumping them into a Mehrauli forest.
Earlier in the day, a Saket Court extended his police custody.
Meanwhile, in another case today, the Delhi High Court rejected a plea seeking transfer of the case to Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for efficient probe. The plea stated that the Delhi Police is mishandling the case by leaking sensitive information to media.
“The forensic evidence in the present case has not been preserved properly by the Delhi Police since all the alleged recoveries are being touched and accessed by different public persons and media personnel within the Mehrauli Police Station,” the plea read.
