The Delhi Police Crime Branch has arrested a woman and her son for allegedly killing her husband and chopping his body into pieces. In a case that is being said to share chilling similarities with the Shraddha Walkar murder, sources in the police said the mother-son duo kept the body parts in their fridge and dumped it later in Pandav Nagar and Trilokpuri area.
The incident is said to have taken place in June. Local police had found a severed head and some body parts near a ground in Pandav Nagar, but the body couldn’t be identified at the time.

The case was transferred to the Crime Branch and the accused, Poonam and her son Deepak, have been arrested for alleged murder and hiding evidence.
CCTV footage of the incident shows the accused walking towards a vacant ground with a bag, ostensibly containing body parts.
The incident took place almost a month after 27-year-old Walkar was allegedly killed by her live-in partner and her body was chopped into 35 pieces. Police had said Walkar’s body was also stored in the fridge, and was disposed of over the next few months.
