The 28-year-old is currently being held in judicial custody for dismembering Shraddha’s body and keeping the chopped body pieces in a refrigerator before dumping them in the Chhatarpur jungles in south Delhi. Aaftab spends his free time planning his chess strategies, frequently alone himself but also occasionally with two other prisoners, according to the jail officials.
