Indrani Mukerjea series out on Netflix after court junks CBI plea

The documentary series on Indrani mukerjea, who is facing trial for allegedly killing her daughter Sheena Bora, was released on the OTT plateform Netflix after the Bombay High court rejected a cbi petition against its streaming on Thursday

 

As of my last update in April 2023, Indrani Mukerjea was a key figure in a high-profile criminal case in India, related to the murder of her daughter, Sheena Bora, in April 2012. Indrani, a former media executive, was arrested in August 2015 and charged with the murder, drawing significant media attention due to the nature of the crime and the involvement of other high-profile individuals, including her husband, Peter Mukerjea, also a prominent media executive.

The case revealed a complex web of personal and financial relationships, with Sheena Bora initially being presented to the public as Indrani's sister, though she was, in fact, her daughter from a previous relationship. The investigation uncovered motives allegedly tied to financial gains and family dynamics.

Indrani Mukerjea, along with her ex-husband Sanjeev Khanna and her driver Shyamvar Rai, were accused of conspiring in the murder. Peter Mukerjea was later arrested and charged with being part of the conspiracy, though the extent of his involvement has been contested.Throughout the trial, all accused have maintained their innocence. The case has seen numerous developments over the years, including the turning of Shyamvar Rai into an approver (a witness for the prosecution in exchange for a potential reduction in sentence), revealing intricate details about the planning and execution of the murder as alleged by the prosecution.

The trial has been extensively covered by the media, highlighting various aspects of the Indian legal system, the challenges of high-profile criminal investigations, and societal reactions to crimes involving affluent individuals.
