Shraddha Filed An FIR in 2020

Shraddha Walker who was allegedly killed by her live-in partner Aftab Amin Poonawalla had filed a complaint in Mumbai’s Vasai Police Station alleging that he threatened her to kill and cut into pieces, throwing them away.

“Today he tried to kill me by suffocating me and he scares me and blackmails me that he will kill me, cut me up in pieces and throw me away. It’s been six months he has been hitting me but I did not have the guts to go to the police because he would threaten to kill me,” read the letter.

The letter further stated that the family of Aftab knew about their live-in relationship and also the fact that he tried to kill her. The family used to visit the couple on weekends and was agreed with the decision of their marriage.

In her letter, she clearly said, “… so any kind of physical damage should be cpnsidered coming from him as he has been blackmailing to kill me or hurt me whenever he sees me anywhere.”

Aftab is accused of strangling his live-in partner Shraddha Walker and chopping her body into 35 pieces. The accused was allegedly high on marijuana when he committed the crime, sources said.
