'''Shraddha Walker''' ( – May 2022) was an Indian girl who lived in South Delhi with her boyfriend Aaftab Amin Poonawala. On November 10, her father filed a missing person report at Mehrauli Police Station, South Delhi district and based on his complaint an FIR was registered by the police and an investigation was initiated to find Shraddha.

On November 14, her boyfriend Aaftab Amin Poonawala was arrested after Delhi police started probing into a missing complaint filed by Shraddha’s father.<ref name="FP">{{cite web |title=Shraddha Walker Murder Case: Accused Aftab to stay in jail as court extends police custody |url=https://www.firstpost.com/india/shraddha-walker-murder-case-accused-aftab-to-stay-in-jail-as-court-extends-police-custody-11647121.html |website=Firstpost |language=en |date=17 November 2022}}</ref>

==Background==
Shraddha was born and brought up into a Hindu family and was working in a call centre in Malad, Mumbai where she met Aaftab Amin Poonawala and gradually both started dating each other. After a few months, Shraddha’s parents came to know about their relationship and in 2019, Shraddha told her mother that she wanted to have a live-in relationship with Aftab, but her family refused to allow her to get into a live-in relationship with him due to religion differences. However, Shraddha was adamant about her decision and left the home to live with Aftab.<ref name="OPI">{{cite web |last1=Staff |first1=OpIndia |title=Aftab used to beat her, she had broken ties with her family but Shraddha's father kept trying to find her: Details from FIR |url=https://www.opindia.com/2022/11/shraddhas-parents-were-against-interfaith-relationship-she-had-complained-about-aftab-being-abusive-details-of-her-fathers-fir/ |website=OpIndia |date=15 November 2022}}</ref>

After some time, Shraddha’s friends informed her parents about her whereabouts, and they came to know that the duo had shifted to Naya Gaon and later to Vasai. According to the FIR, Shraddha started calling her mother and informed her that Aftab often fought with her and physically assaulted her as well.<ref name="OPI" />

On January 1, 2020, Shraddha’s mother passed away and around 20 days after her death, Shraddha called her father a couple of times and reported the same. Her father requested her to leave Aftab and come back home. However, Aftab apologised to her, and she went back.<ref name="OPI" />

On September 14, a close friend of Shraddha called her brother and informed him that he could not contact Shraddha for two months and a day after he told Shraddha’s father that he was in regular contact with Shraddha, but her phone had been switched off for the last two months. Shraddha's father then tried her phone, but it did not connect so he decided to file a complaint at Manikpur Police Station. Manikpur Police transferred the case to Mehrauli Police Station and informed her father that the duo had shifted to Delhi.<ref name="OPI" />
