Taking the investigation beyond the state, Mumbai police arrested former husband of Indrani, Sanjeev Khanna, in connection with the case in Kolkata. Sheena is stated to be Indrani’s daughter from an earlier marriage with one Siddharth Das.
Khanna, a resident of Hastings Road area in Kolkata, was arrested from his friend’s flat in Alipore for his alleged involvement in the murder, Kolkata Police Joint CP (Crime) Pallab Kanti Ghosh said.
Meanwhile, Peter Mukherjea’s son Rahul who is at the center of the alleged affair with Sheena said that he had met her hours before the murder.

Mumbai Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria told reporters here that the murder was by strangulation followed by burning of the body by petrol. The murder took place on 24 April 2012 and the body was found by Raigad police on May 23, he said.
Maria also said that Khanna is an accused in the case.
A shocked Peter Mukerjea said he had believed that the deceased was Indrani’s sister and not her daughter while Mikhail said Sheena was the daughter and not the sister of Indrani.
“I have no doubt my mother Indrani killed my sister Sheena Bora,” he said, claiming to know the “exact reason” but would not reveal it until his mother confesses to it.

His statement came amid reports that Sheena and Peter’s son Rahul through his earlier marriage had been dating each other and Indrani was opposed to it.
Intriguing claims came to light that Indrani had introduced her daughter and son to people as sister and brother. After the murder, she is also said to have claimed that Sheena had gone to the US for higher studies.
Indrani was arrested by Khar Police last night over her alleged role in the murder of Sheena in 2012.
Peter said he would cooperate with investigators in the probe. “I have never experienced anything like this before.

The news I am getting, the kind of crime that has been committed, I would have never expected.
“Whatever help, information, police need, I am happy to help them with that. I would be absolutely clear and straight with them and cooperate,” he said.
“I don’t understand at all with regard to my wife…
Sheena Bora is her sister, I believed all these years, and now I am being told that she was her daughter. Whom I thought was her brother, is now her son from an earlier marriage, which I was not aware of. I was aware of one marriage and not so many others. So, now there are number of things that are appearing to me which are completely new to me,” he said.
