Shraddha Walkar was pregnant, wanted to marry and have the baby, but Aftab Poonawalla made her abort: Sagarika Shona Suman

MUMBAI: After a Marathi actor Madhuri Sangita Patil who had worked with the Delhi murder victim Shraddha Walkar on a beach cleanup drive in Mumbai almost a year ago, alleged that the victim had got pregnant and wanted to marry her live-in partner and have the baby, one more Mumbai-based actor who had met Shraddha at the same cleanup drive, also reiterated and shared the same story.

According to actor Sagarika Shona Suman, Shraddha shared her experience with 3-4 people and said she had got pregnant and wanted to have the baby, after getting married with Aftab, for whom she had left her family and her mother and father.

But her boyfriend Aftab Ameen Poonawala insisted that she go in for an abortion as per him, they were not ready to handle a baby and a family at that stage.

This was narrated by Shraddha to both the women Sagarika Shona Suman and Madhuri Sangita Patil who were present at the cleanup drive at Juhu beach, almost a year earlier.

“Shraddha Walkar was very keen on getting married. She had admitted to a social worker Shreha Dhargalkar and me during one of our conversations that she was pregnant once and her boyfriend made her go in for an abortion. However, I suspect in the course of her 3-4 year relationship with Aftab Amin Poonawalla she had pregnant two times. And may have aborted her pregnancy twice. That is why she was aloof and depressed, because she had left her mother and father and family for Aftab and he was not ready to marry her and live with her legitimately,” Madhuri said, adding that Shraddha abhorred the concept of a live-in relationship.

Apparently after searching on Google, Aftab got some pills from a chemist and gave them to Shraddha. She was bleeding for two or three days and managed to abort the pregnancy, Madhuri informed, which was also repeated by Sagarika Shona Suman.
