Aaftab Poonawala Withdraws Bail Request, Lawyer Cites "Miscommunication"

The Delhi Police had filed a reply in a Saket court saying that bail should not be granted to Aaftab Poonawala since the crime has deeply impacted society.

Aaftab Poonawala, accused of murdering his live-in girlfriend Shraddha Walkar, today withdrew his bail application due to miscommunication with his lawyer

The bail application was filed erroneously without Aaftab's consent, a Delhi court said.

Aftab's lawyer Advocate MS Khan informed the court that after a 50-minute-long discussion with Aaftab on Monday, the accused has decided to withdraw the bail plea.

He categorically told the court that the plea was filed due to miscommunication.
