Shraddha was murdered on 18 May


The Shraddha murder case is considered to be the biggest murder case in Delhi till date. Believing in her love, Shraddha left her family and went with Aftab and lived with him, but Aftab became the reason for her death. During interrogation, Aftab told the police that the fight between the two had reached such an extent that he had made a plan to kill Shraddha. He had made a plan on 11th May but that day's plan failed, but Shraddha was murdered on 18th May. After the murder, Aftab cut Shraddha's body into 35 pieces and kept it in the fridge. After that, he used to throw those body parts every day in the forests of Mehrauli.
