Court Rejects Indrani Mukerjea’s Bail Plea

Mumbai: A special CBI court today rejected a bail plea of Indrani Mukerjea, prime accused in the 2012 Sheena Bora murder case.

Mukerjea had filed the bail application before special judge for CBI cases J C Jagdale about six months ago on health grounds.

“Her medical condition is severe, deteriorating and aggravating. Path is not towards cure…Path is towards deterioration,” Indrani’s lawyer Tanveer Ahmed had said earlier while arguing for bail.

“Medical experts have opined the infirmity with the lady is of an irreversible condition…So, deterioration is something which is inevitably going to happen,” he had added.

Opposing her bail plea, the CBI had said there is no proof that her health is deteriorating.

There is no change of circumstances since her last bail plea was rejected (November 18) by the special CBI court, the agency’s counsel Manoj Chaladan had submitted.

Sheena (24) was allegedly strangled in a car by her mother Indrani, Indrani’s former husband Sanjeev Khanna and Indrani’s former driver Shyamvar Rai in April 2012.

The body was burnt in a forest in neighbouring Raigad district.
