Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) in Rohini on Sunday said the remaining sessions of polygraph test on Aftab Amin Poonawala, accused of brutally killing his live-in partner Shraddha Walkar, will be conducted on Monday.
As these sessions are pending, the narco analysis is likely to get postponed by few more days, a senior official said.
"The remaining polygraph sessions will be conducted on Monday," Head of the Department of Crime Scene Management at FSL, Rohini, Sanjeev Gupta, said.
Poonawala allegedly strangled his Walkar, 27, and sawed her body into 35 pieces, which he kept in a 300-litre fridge for almost three weeks at his Mehrauli residence in South Delhi, before dumping them across the city over several days.
He was arrested on November 12 and sent to five-day police custody, which was further extended by five days on November 17. On Tuesday, he was sent to four more days of police custody.
