#Sheena Bora murder: Peter Mukherjea records his statement with police

Mumbai, Sep 2 (IBNS) Media tycoon Peter Mukerjea on Wednesday recorded his statement with the Mumbai police on the murder of his step-daughter Sheena Bora, allegedly by his wife Indrani Mukerjea and two others, reports said.

The  Mumbai police had called last week  the former Star India CEO for questioning and had refused to accept a written statement from him.

 
 
Indrani Mukerjea was arrested on August 24 for the murder of Sheena Bora, her daughter from an earlier relationship, in 2012. 
 
She has been accused of killing her  with the help of her ex-husband Sanjeev Khanna and driver.
 
Indrani used to present Sheena as her sister hiding their true relationship.

Peter Mukerjea  married  Indrani  in 2002 and set up a media company with her.
 
He had  first claimed that he was unaware that Sheena Bora was his wife's daughter. But later, he admitted that he was told the fact and it could be sometime in 2011.

He also claimed that the same thing was communicated to him by his son, Rahul Mukerjea, but he had not believed him as well.

Sheena Bora was having a relationship with  Rahul, Peter Mukerjea's son from a previous marriage.
 
Sheena was stated to have been  strangled in a car and then her body was burnt and dumped in the forests in Raigad, 84 km from Mumbai. 
 
The remains were found a month later and buried by the local police, which treated the body as unclaimed.
 
 For three years, Indrani Mukerjea told family and friends that Sheena had shifted to the US.
 
The lid over the murder blew off recently following an anonymous call that made police to crack on the case.
