Indrani said she fears that Sheena may have lost her life on account of greed, betrayal, jealousy, lust and ill-will of persons whom she dearly loved and trusted, and so she wants the main accused to be punished.
In a fresh twist to the Sheena Bora murder case, accused Indrani Mukerjea on Wednesday, placed the blame for the 'disappearance' of her daughter Sheena squarely on her estranged husband Peter Mukerjea and her driver Shyamwar Rai – who is an accused-turned-approver in the case.
In the ongoing trial in the case, Rai, who is a prosecution witness, is being cross-examined by Indrani's lawyers. On Wednesday, Indrani pleaded the special CBI court to provide her with Peter's call data records, in order to establish her claim.
She claimed that she suspects that her estranged husband Peter and driver Rai were behind Sheena's sudden disappearance. In the two-page application submitted before the special CBI court, Indrani pleaded the court to provide justice to her daughter.
Indrani said she fears that Sheena may have lost her life on account of greed, betrayal, jealousy, lust and ill-will of persons whom she dearly loved and trusted, and so she wants the main accused to be punished.
The letter, a copy of which is in DNA's possession, reads that she has strong reasons to believe that Peter, with the assistance of other persons, including Rai, may have conspired and abducted her daughter Sheena in 2012 and made her untraceable; and must have subsequently destroyed evidence.
"I also believe that Peter, along with other persons, may have manipulated circumstances to frame me and influence witnesses," reads the letter, "Also, situations were created and information was provided to lead to my arrest on August 25, 2015 for a heinous crime that they may have committed, aided and abetted."
Stressing on the need for Peter's call data records, Indrani added, "I am convinced that if we are able to obtain the CDR of Peter's mobile phone, we will be in a better position to ascertain if Peter and other persons were involved in the disappearance of my daughter Sheena. Also, there would be more clarity on whether Peter and other persons had a role in framing me."
When contacted, Peter's advocate Shrikant Shivade did not wish to speak on Indrani's allegations.
According to the prosecution, Rai, Indrani and her ex-husband Sanjeev Khanna planned the murder and killed Sheena, Indrani's biological daughter. They also disposed off her body in Pen. Rai later decided to become an approver in the case. Meanwhile, Indrani's estranged husband Peter was arrested under the charges of conspiracy.
