For a second time on Tuesday morning, the police team took Aftab to the Mehrauli forest area to recover the remains of the victim’s body which the accused chopped into 35 pieces.
He was first taken to the area on Monday. The police said that after chopping the body on May 18, the accused bought a new refrigerator with a large storage capacity the next day and stored the remains in it.
To counter the stench, he lit incense sticks at his home. Aftab was reportedly inspired by the American crime show ‘Dexter’, which tells the story of a man with homicidal tendencies who lives a double life. Being a trained chef, the accused was adept at using a knife, according to the sources. However, the murder weapon is yet to be recovered. Shraddha Murder Case: Delhi Police Probing Conspiracy Angle.
