In a letter to the CBI, Indrani Mukerjea writes, "Inmate says Sheena Bora is alive in Kashmir."

Indrani Mukerjea, a former media executive who is on trial for the alleged murder of her daughter Sheena Bora, has submitted a letter to the CBI saying that a fellow convict told her that she had seen Sheena alive in Kashmir.

Mukerjea is charged with the murder of her daughter Sheena on April 24, 2012. She was arrested on August 25, 2015, by Khar police and has been detained at the Byculla Jail since September 2015. Peter Mukerjea, her ex-husband and former CEO of Star India, and Sanjeev Khanna are co-accused in the case. Last year, Peter was granted bail.

Sana Ranees Khan, Indrani's lawyer, confirmed that the letter was sent from the Byculla women's jail. On December 28, Khan plans to file a formal application at the trial court, according to Khan. Despite the fact that a hearing was held on Wednesday, no submission was presented to the court.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, Mukerjea was not physically present for the hearing. She claims in her letter that a jail inmate told her she had seen Sheena in Kashmir, and she has requested that the central agency examine the matter.
