"We are keeping this case on priority and the report (of the Polygraph test to police) will be given soon," said Sanjeev.

Aftab was arrested on November 12 and sent to five-day police custody, which was further extended by five days on November 17. Last week, he was sent to four more days of police custody.

Meanwhile, Shraddha Walkar’s father Vikas on Saturday said that accused Aftab had casually told him that he killed Shraddha, and it was exactly in the manner she had mentioned in her police complaint. Talking exclusively to ABP News, Vikas Walkar said, “He told me very casually, in a normal manner that she is no more and admitted that he killed her.”

The Border Security Force has been deployed outside the Forensic Science Laboratory in Rohini after the police van carrying Aftab was attacked by some men carrying swords, reported news agency ANI. The accused who attacked the police van was produced in a court and have been sent to judicial custody, said the Delhi Police, reported the news agency, adding that the remaining accused will be identified and arrested. 

Aftab has been taken to the Forensic Science Laboratory in Delhi for a polygraph test twice before. However, because he was ill, staff at the institution reportedly found it impossible to record his statements.

Aftab allegedly strangled and killed his live-in partner Shraddha Walkar, a call centre employee, in his Chhatarpur flat in Mehrauli. He then dismembered her corpse into 35 pieces and stacked them in a refrigerator and would later dump them in midnight at various places in the city.
