A case under IPC section 302 (murder) is being registered at the Kotwali police station. The area is being searched for further evidence, the officials said.

The gory crime in the capital comes after 27-year-old Mumbai woman, Shraddha Walkar, was allegedly murdered by her boyfriend Aftab Poonawala last year.

Poonawala later chopped Walkar's body into 35 pieces and had alleged to have preserved them in a refrigerator before dumping them in the forest areas of Chhatarpur in south Delhi. He even had charred her face to hide her identity.
