In a major breakthrough in the grisly murder of 27-year-old Shraddha Walkar, police received the forensic and DNA reports related to the case.
According to an NDTV report, the DNA from the bones recovered from Delhi forests match that of Shraddha's father, Vikas Walker.
Aaftab Poonawala, who is accused of brutally killing his live-in partner and then disposing off her body parts led the investigative team to the spots from where the cops recovered some bones.
However, the cops decided to get the DNA analysis done to confirm of the bones belonged to the victim.

Notably, during interrogation, Poonawala, 28, confessed to killing Walkar and chopping her body parts into 35 pieces and disposing them of in various parts of the national capital, police had said.
Following his confession, police scanned through various forest areas and even a pond in Madangir was emptied to look for Walkar's missing body parts. Though police have recovered more than 13 body parts, suspected to be that of Walkar, from forest areas of Mehrauli and Gurugram, only a DNA analysis will ascertain that they belonged to the victim.
