She was allegedly strangled and her body sawed into 35 pieces and disposed of in various parts of the National Capital by her live-in partner Aaftab Amin Poonawala.

“In the Shradha Walkar murder case, the Delhi Police have received the DNA report from the CFSL (Central Forensic Science Laboratory), Lodhi Road. The DNA report is helpful.

“We have also received report of his (Poonawala’s) polygraph test from FSL, Rohini, and this report will also help in investigation,” Special Commissioner of Police (Law & Order) Sagar Preet Hooda told reporters here on Thursday.

The murder case that came to light a month ago had sent shock waves across the country, even as DNA forensic reports and the polygraph test report are expected to provide some vital clue to the police.
