Mumbai: Former media magnate Peter Mukerjea, arrested by the CBI in connection with the sensational Sheena Bora murder case for allegedly “shielding the accused”, was produced in a magistrate’s court here on Friday.
Peter Mukerjea’s wife Indrani, her former husband Sanjeev Khanna and her former driver Shyamvar Rai were also brought to the court.
In a fresh twist in the Sheena case, Peter Mukerjea was arrested on Thursday by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), hours after it filed a chargesheet in which Indrani, the mother of the victim born from her first marriage, and two others were accused of the crime.
A CBI spokesperson had said that Peter’s name surfaced during its probe in the case and “he has been arrested”.
The spokesperson refused to divulge any further details in the case, but sources in the probe agency said he has been arrested for allegedly “shielding the accused” and “inconsistencies” in his statements. Peter was placed under arrest after another round of questioning.-PTI
