New Delhi: Shraddha Walkar murder case accused Aaftab Poonawala on Friday moved an application seeking bail in Delhi’s Saket Court. The court is likely to hear it on Saturday.
Poonawala, who has been arrested based on his confession of killing Walkar and chopping her body into 35 pieces to dispose it of, was arrested last month and is currently lodged in Tihar jail.
On December 9, he was produced before a court via video conferencing and his judicial custody was further extended by 14 days.
Earlier on Thursday, the police said that the DNA extracted from bone pieces recovered in the Mehrauli forest area, by the Delhi Police, suspected to be Walkar’s, matched with samples of Walkar’s father.
The police recovered 13 bone pieces from the area while searching for Walkar’s body parts.
The report of Poonawala’s polygraph test was submitted to the police by the forensic sciences lab on Wednesday.
