Mumbai: Former media baron Peter Mukerjea was booked by CBI in its chargesheet for murder, criminal conspiracy and destruction of evidence in the high-profile Sheena Bora murder case.
In its chargesheet, filed on Tuesday, CBI claimed that Peter was actively involved in the murder conspiracy, alongwith other accused Indrani Mukerjea, Sanjeev Khanna and Shyamvar Rai. Both Peter as well as Indrani were not too pleased with the fact that Sheena was into a relationship with Rahul Mukerjea. While Sheena was Indrani's daughter from an earlier relationship, Rahul was Peter's son from his first wife.
CBI also mentioned in its chargesheet that in an email written by Rahul to Peter Mukerjea dated April 13, 2011, both Rahul and Sheena feared for their lives.
The email, published by TOI today, said, "There is threat to our lives (Sheena and him) by Indrani. We documented every fact, communication, messages and other details. We have given it to a third party for safekeeping. If anything happens to me or her, authority in India and UK will be made aware of the details."
The chargesheet was filed by the national investigation agency, just two days before the stipulated 90-day deadline.
