The CBI, which is probing the sensational Sheena Bora murder case, on Saturday told a special court here that prime accused Indrani Mukerjea had informed her husband and former media magnate Peter Mukerjea about killing her daughter on April 24, 2012.

“Indrani has admitted that she had told Peter about her daughter Sheena’s murder on April 24, 2014, the day when the crime took place,” the agency told Special CBI judge H S Mahajan while replying to Peter Mukerjea’s bail application.

Indrani Mukerjea-Peter“Indrani had revealed this while recording her statement (before CBI) on December 15 last year,” CBI said.

The agency opposed the bail of Peter, who was arrested in the case in November last year, on the ground that he was part of the murder conspiracy and had concealed information about the victim’s disappearance from his son and Sheena’s fiance Rahul.

“Peter was in touch with prime accused and his wife Indrani from the day of Sheena’s murder and till her body was disposed the next day,” it said.

“He was also part of the conspiracy and had concealed the fact (about Sheena’s death) from his son Rahul Mukerjea,” it added.

The agency also informed the court that certain important documents (including that of financial transactions in the case) are under its scrutiny and the investigation was still going on.

The court adjourned the hearing on Peter’s bail application till January 30.

Meanwhile, Indrani, her former husband Sanjeev Khanna and her former driver Shyamvar Rai were today produced in the court, where Indrani’s daughter Vidhie (with Sanjeev Khanna), relatives of Khanna and brother and other relatives of Peter were present.

CBI is likely to file its reply on the bail application filed by Indrani’s fromer husband Sanjeev Khanna, filed through his lawyer Shreyansh Mithare, on January 30.

The court also directed the CBI to file its reply on Indrani’s application seeking her medical reports from the state-run J J hospital.
