The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has submitted a list of 23 witnesses it would not be examining against former media executive Indrani Mukerjea and other accused in connection with the killing of her daughter Sheena Bora. The CBi in the list that includes Mumbai's former police commissioner Rakesh Maria and other police officials said they would not be examined in the trial as they were "unrelied witnesses". Indrani and her two former husbands Peter Mukerjea and Sanjeev Khanna are accused of being involved in the killing of Sheena Bora, Indrani's daughter from her first relation. Sheena (24) was murdered on April 24, 2012, allegedly by her mother Indrani, Khanna, and driver Shyamvar Rai in conspiracy with Peter Mukerjea. The killing, however, came to light only in 2015 when Rai was arrested by the Mumbai police in another case. At the time, Maria was the city police commissioner and had supervised the probe.

Rahul Mukerjea, son of former media baron Peter Mukerjea, on Thursday denied before a special court here that he knew whether Sheena Bora was still alive. Rahul, a witness in the 2012 Sheena Bora murder case, was being cross-examined by defence lawyers before special CBI judge S P Naik-Nimbalkar. Sheena's mother Indrani Mukerjea is a prime accused in the murder case. The crime came to light in 2015, three years after Sheena (24) was allegedly killed by Indrani with the help of Indrani's former husband Sanjeev Khanna and driver Shyamvar Rai in April 2012. To a question by Indrani's lawyer Ranjeet Sangle, Rahul said, "As per my personal knowledge, I do not know whether Sheena is alive or dead as of today. "It is not true to say that I am fully aware about the whereabouts of Sheena and that she is alive today," he added. The witness also denied that he was in regular touch with Sheena till the end of September 2012. He did not conspire with Sheena to prepare a forged passport so

Over six years after she was arrested for allegedly murdering her daughter Sheena Bora, former media executive Indrani Mukerjea on Friday evening walked out of Mumbai's Byculla women's prison here. I am happy, a beaming Indrani told waiting reporters. Sporting jet black hair, Indrani stepped out of the jail around 5.30 pm, hugged her lawyer Sana Raees Shaikh, smiled and waved to waiting media. She then stepped into the lawyer's high-end car and drove to her Worli flat. She did not entertain queries from media there. Her changed appearance prompted a flurry of comments on social media. So they have beauty parlours in jail, read a tweet. Supreme Court granted Indrani bail in the case on Wednesday. Sheena Bora (24) was killed sometime in April 2012 if the investigators are to be believed, but the crime came to light three years later with the arrest of Shyamvar Rai, Indrani's former driver, for illegal possession of weapon on August 21, 2015.
