About this episode

Nothing seemed to be amiss when 27 year-old Shraddha Walkar matched with Aftab Poonawala on the dating app Bumble. Yet, a few years into their relationship, Shraddha became unreachable to friends and family, with authorities later discovering that her phone had been switched off for months. This prompted police to look for Aftab; unveiling the most gruesome of findings.

Part 1 - We trace the origins of Shraddha and Aftab's relationship, the various challenges they faced, and the point at which Shraddha seemingly vanished

Part 2 - We pick up from the moment from the shocking discovery in Aftab's apartment, and the resulting ordeal that followed
