IANS/Mumbai

A Mumbai court yesterday sent Indrani Mukherjea and her former driver Shyamvar Rai, both accused in the murder of Sheena Bora, to judicial custody for 14 days.
The third co-accused, Sanjeev Khanna, Indrani’s former husband, has been taken to Kolkata for further investigation, police told the court.
Indrani, mother of Sheena Bora, and Rai were produced before the Bandra magistrate’s court at the end of their police custody yesterday. They were sent to judicial custody till September 21.
Khanna was produced before a magistrate’s court in Kolkata, where he was first arrested on August 26, since his police remand ended in Mumbai.
In the remand application in the Bandra magistrate court, police said they wanted to investigate e-mail exchanges between Indrani and Khanna pertaining to the 2012 murder.
Indrani, Khanna and the driver are accused of killing Sheena, setting her on fire and dumping the remains in a forested part of Raigad, near Mumbai.
On Sunday, the investigators took Indrani to her home in Worli and a place in Bandra in a bid to recreate the crime sequence and conspiracy hatched over three years ago.
Police have alleged Indrani and Khanna picked up Sheena from Bandra on April 24, 2012 in the car driven by Rai.
They drove to some quiet by-lanes of Bandra where Sheena was allegedly strangulated and the car was later taken to then media tycoon Peter Mukherjea’s bungalow in Marlow Housing Society in Worli.
Later they took it to an isolated spot near Gagode village in Raigad, burnt and disposed off the body.
Besides recreating the crime sequence that night, police are also probing who chose the crime spot in Gagode and why.
