However, police stopped him and the gun was found on him during search in August 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Rai, in his statement recorded under Section 164 of the Criminal Procedure Code which is admissible unlike a statement to police, said that &#8220;after Indrani picked up Sheena in her car he gagged her while Indrani&#8217;s former husband Sanjeev Khanna held her hands and she strangled her&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>According to the prosecution, 24-year-old Sheena was murdered on April 24, 2012. Indrani, Khanna and Rai had allegedly strangled Sheena, Indrani&#8217;s daughter from an earlier relationship inside a car.<\/p>\n<p>Sheena&#8217;s body was found in a forest in Raigad. The crime, which came to light last year, is allegedly linked to certain financial dealings.<\/p>\n<p>The trio were arrested in August last year, while Peter Mukerjea was arrested in November. According to CBI, Peter was part of the murder conspiracy.<\/p>\n<p>While Peter and Khanna are lodged in the Central prison at Arthur Road, Indrani is in Byculla women&#8217;s jail in the city.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key accused Indrani Mukerjea&#8217;s former driver Shyamvar Rai, who has turned approver in the Sheena Bora murder case, has submitted that his 43-year-old employer &#8216;implicated&#8217; him in an arms case by planting a gun on him soon after allegedly killing her daughter.
