Several police teams have reached Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh to collect evidence on the case.
"We will talk to the owners and staffers of hotels where the couple had stayed in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand and also make them identify Poonawala. We will also take him to the forest area to ascertain the routes taken by him while dumping the severed body parts," a police official told news agency PTI.
Notably, after leaving Mumbai, Walkar and Poonawala had travelled to several locations and police will visit these places with Aftab to ascertain whether something had happened on those trips to trigger the murder.
Meanwhile, a CCTV footage, purportedly showing Aftab, walking on a street outside his house with a bag late in the night, has surfaced online on Saturday. Delhi Police is yet to verify the authenticity of the video.
Shraddha was strangled by her live-in partner Aftab on May 18. He then chopped her body into 35 pieces, which he kept in a 300-litre fridge for almost three weeks at his residence in South Delhi's Mehrauli, before dumping them across the city over several days past midnight.
