Shraddha Walkar murder case | FSL team in Tihar for post-narco analysis of accused Aftab Poonawala

Sources in the FSL had earlier said the answers the accused gave during the narco test and a polygraph test held earlier will be analysed, and he would be informed about his replies as well.

“A four-member team of the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) in New Delhi reached Tihar Jail on December 2 along with the investigating officer of the Shraddha Walkar murder case for a post-narco analysis session of accused Aftab Amin Poonawala,” officials said.

They said the FSL team and the officer arrived in Central Jail No. 4 for a 'post-test interview' with Poonawala. The interview was expected to start from 10 a.m. and go on till 3 p.m. but it was delayed. The team reached the prison around 11.30 a.m.

“After the session, Poonawala will be informed about the replies he gave in his narco analysis test on Thursday. This arrangement has been made as per a court order in view of the risks involved in his transportation,” the officials said.

Poonawala's narco analysis test, which went on for more than two hours at a Rohini hospital, was completely successful.

Sources in the FSL had earlier said the answers the accused gave during the narco test and a polygraph test held earlier will be analysed, and he would be informed about his replies as well.

Twenty-eight-year-old Poonawala allegedly strangled his live-in partner Walkar and cut her body into 35 pieces which he kept in a 300-litre fridge for almost three weeks at his residence in South Delhi's Mehrauli before dumping them across the city over several days.
