Aaftab Poonawala, the accused in the case of brutal murder of his live-in partner Shraddha Walkar in May this year, shifted belongings from his flat in Maharashtra’s Palghar district to Delhi in 37 boxes in June and paid ₹20,000 for it, a police official said on Monday.
Poonawala had told Delhi Police that before moving to the national capital, he and Walkar fought about who would pay for shifting the items from their house in Vasai area of Palghar, according to police sources. A police official said they will find out whose account was used to pay ₹20,000 for the transportation of furniture and other household items in June through the Goodluck Packers and Movers company.
After a Delhi Police team on Sunday recorded the statement of an employee of the packaging company in Maharashtra’s Palghar district, it came to light that Poonawala had shifted belongings in 37 packages from his flat at White Hills Society in Evershine City of Vasai to his residence in Delhi’s Chhatarpur area in June, the official said. The Delhi Police team is in Manikpur in Vasai, the native place of the victim and where the couple had stayed before shifting to the national capital.
