Hated Sheena but did not kill her: Indrani tells police
Mumbai, Aug 30 (IBNS): Indrani Mukherjea, who is accused of killing Sheena Bora, has told police that she hated her daughter, but did not kill her, media reports said.
According to NDTV reports quoting sources, she told her interrogators that it was her ex-husband Sanjeev Khanna who was responsible for the murder.
Earlier, in a major development in the Sheena Bora murder case, Mumbai Police have recovered the car in which the crime was committed.
Sheena's mother Indrani Mukherjea, later married to media tycoon Peter Mukherjea, was arrested in connection with the murder that took place in April 2012.
She is being interrogated in Khar police station.
Indrani was arrested on August 25 on the basis of the information divulged by her driver Shyam Rai who was picked up earlier.
Later, Indrani's ex-husband Sanjeev Khanna was arrested from Kolkata. Khanna reportedly confessed to his complicity in the crime.
Sheena was stated to have been strangled inside the car and then her body was put in a suitcase before it was burnt in a forest area of Raigad, about 84 km away from Mumbai.
Police have recovered remains of the body from the site which have been sent for forensic analysis.
