Shraddha Walkar, who was allegedly strangled by her boyfriend Aaftab Poonawala, her body chopped up into pieces, and dumped in a jungle in Delhi, had feared exactly that two years ago in a complaint to the police at Tilunj in their hometown Vasai in Maharashtra, investigators today said. She had written the complaint to the cops after he beat her up at a flat they shared, and said that his family knew about his violent behaviour, sources in the Delhi police said. The local police said Shraddha later gave another written statement that "we no longer have any quarrel" after his parents spoke to them, and asked for no action to be taken. Aaftab's parents are in Delhi to record statements, as is one of her co-workers, Karan, whom she'd told about the assault.
