Aaftab Amin Poonawala, the accused in the Shraddha Walkar murder case, has moved two applications before the trial court seeking supply of the chargesheet and footage in a proper manner.
He has also sought the release of his education certificate saying he wants to pursue his higher studies.
The application was moved by advocate MS Khan on behalf of Aaftab.
In one of the applications, it is submitted that the e-chargesheet has been supplied to the counsel but it is not in proper form and cannot be read.
It is also said that the pen drive containing the chargesheet is overloaded and is not supported by any advanced computer.
It is also said that the footage is mismanaged in the said pen drive.
The plea has sought direction from the investigation officer to provide the chargesheet in a folder-wise manner and the footage in a separate pen drive.
In other applications, it is submitted that the accused has a copy of the chargesheet but he does not have writing material like a pen, pencil, or notebook. He wants to assist his counsel so he urgently needs writing material.
The plea has sought direction from the jail authorities to provide him with these things.
