He also said that he burnt the pieces of the corpse with petrol and after grinding several bones in a grinder, threw the powder on the road. Aftab also revealed how he disposed of Shraddha’s head.

In the chargesheet, the police alleged that he initially thought of packing the body in a plastic bag and disposing of it. He had even bought a bag, but rejected the idea thinking he would get caught immediately.
