Although new revelations were being made in the case every day, the police felt that Aftab was trying to deviate them from important facts. Since the murder was committed 6 months ago in May 2022, the police need key evidence to convict Aftab beyond a reasonable doubt in court.

Aftab had murdered his girlfriend Shraddha Walker in May this year, 3 days after they moved into their new home after shifting to Delhi from Mumbai. Aftab had chopped off Shraddha's body into 35 pieces with a saw in his bathroom and disposed of them in the Mehrauli forests and nearby areas. He had stored the body pieces in a fridge for a few days. During that time, he had called several friends to his home including girls he was casually dating.
