The Saket Court in New Delhi has documented the testimony of a police inspector involved in the investigation of the Shraddha Walkar murder case. On July 23, 2026, Inspector Ram Singh presented his findings and insights regarding the case, including his interrogation of the accused, Aftab Amin Poonawala. The court proceedings were presided over by Additional Sessions Judge Hargurvarinder Singh Jaggi.

Inspector Singh is the official who filed the charge sheet subsequent to the investigation. His role is crucial, as he has been part of the ongoing legal process. The testimony was given in conjunction with Special Public Prosecutor Madhukar Pandey, representing the Delhi Police. Aftab Amin Poonawala is currently facing trial for the alleged murder of Shraddha Walkar, which has garnered significant public attention.

Further Examination Scheduled

During the court session, Inspector Singh was called upon for further examination-in-chief, which has been deferred to a later date following an initial examination. His contributions included details about the second supplementary charge sheet and the technical documents associated with it. The investigation is proceeding with a focus on a day-to-day basis to ensure timely progress in the proceedings.

As part of the evidence presented, Inspector Singh’s testimony concerning detailed forensic data and procedural compliance was recorded. The court is determined to move swiftly through the evidence gathering, having noted the importance of concluding this case in a timely manner. This drive for efficiency is an aspect of the judicial process emphasised by the court.

The prosecution aims to expedite the trial, with eight witnesses still pending examination. Some of the chief evidence has been partially documented, while additional witnesses’ testimonies have been rescheduled. This effort to conduct a continuous hearing marks a notable approach in handling high-profile cases.

Background Of The Case

The Shraddha Walkar murder case involves serious allegations against Aftab Amin Poonawala. The case reportedly revolves around the murder that took place in May 2022. It only came to public light in November 2022 after her parents took steps to locate her due to their concerns over her prolonged absence. An FIR was subsequently lodged at the Mehrauli police station in November of that year.

According to allegations, Aftab Poonawala is accused of disposing of Shraddha’s body parts in a forested area following the murder. This shocking aspect of the case has drawn considerable media and public scrutiny. It has highlighted safety concerns and the broader social issues surrounding interpersonal relationships.

In 2025, further developments occurred with the death of Shraddha’s father, Vikas Walkar. His passing has added another layer of complexity to the ongoing case, as it has affected the emotional and legal dynamics relating to the prosecution. The court’s focus remains fixated on delivering justice in this high-profile investigation.
