The Delhi Police team at Vasai, Palghar in Maharashtra has recorded the statements of 11 people in connection with the Shraddha murder case, according to the sources on Monday.

Among those who were questioned and whose statements were recorded include Shraddha’s friends Laxman Nadar, Rahul Rai, Godwin, Shivani Mhatre and her husband, Aftab-Shraddha’s flat owner, Shraddha’s manager Karan Bahri, Shraddha-Aftab’s flat owner Jayshree Patkar, Secretary of Unique Park, where Aftab’s family lived – Abdullah Khan, Ramdas Kevat, President of Unique Park and Govind Yadav, the owner of Packers and Movers, who sent Aftab’s goods from Vasai to Chhatarpur.

A team of Delhi Police headed by SHO Mehrauli also went to the Bidhuri Dental Clinic in the national capital to seek a second opinion from the doctor on the jaw that was recovered recently.

According to the doctor present there, the police wanted to match the denture (which has been treated) with the jaw that was recovered at the Mehrauli forest.

According to the police, Shraddha’s teeth were also treated (root canal) in Mumbai.

The doctor said that the Delhi Police team had also brought the investigation report of Mumbai along with them.

“The police had come to us only to take a second opinion,” the doctor said.
According to Delhi Police sources, the police are investigating if the accused Aftab owned more than one phone number.

“The police believe that Aftab used more than one number. The police got this information from the bills recovered by the police during the investigation of this case. The first bill was that of the movers and packers who got them shifted from Mumbai’s Vasai to Delhi. The second bill is from Tilak Electronic from where he bought the fridge. Aftab’s phone number is different on both bills. For this reason, the police suspected that Aftab was using more than 1 number,” the sources said.
