Indrani Mukherjea tells police that Sheena Bora is in the US

Mumbai, Sep 1 (IBNS) Indrani Mukerjea, the prime accused in the alleged killing her daughter Sheena Bora, has reportedly claimed that the 24-year-old is in the US and is not coming forward because she hates her.

Media reports have quoted police as saying that Indrani, a former media executive married to media honcho Peter Mukherjee has stuck to her assertion.

She reportedly told police that she used to hate Sheena, but didn't kill her.

Besides Indrani, her ex-husband Sanjeev Khanna and driver Shyam Rai have been arrested in connection with the alleged murder that took place in April, 2012.

Sheena was allegedly strangled inside a car and then her body was burnt in a forest area of Raigad in Maharashtra.

Indrani, who used to present Sheena as her sister had  told friends and family that  she had gone to the US.

Indrani begot Sheena and a son, Mikhael from an earlier marriage or relationship which is yet to be established.

She has another daughter, Vidhie, from her marriage to Sanjeev Khanna.

Sheena was having an affair with Rahul, Peter Mukherjee's son from a previous marriage which Indrani had always been strongly opposed to for reasons police are looking into.

After Sheena's  murder Indrani allegedly kept up the charade by using her daughter's  phone for a year, forging letters in her name and also sending a fake resignation letter to her office.

All three accused were produced before the court  on Monday. Indrani is also accused accused of trying to kill her son Mekhail Bora, Sheena's younger brother.
