Know exact cause of Sheena's murder : Mikhail

Guwahati, Aug 26: The brother of Sheena Bora, the murdered daughter of Indrani Mukherjee, today claimed that he knew the "exact reason" for the crime by their mother but will do the needful only if she does not confesses it to the police.

"I believe that our mother killed my sister. I know the exact reason of the murder and it is not the ones that are being told to the media," Sheena's brother Mikhail Bora, who stays with his maternal grandparents here, told reporters.

Asked about the motive behind the murder, he said "I am sorry, I will not tell it to you now. I will wait till she (Indrani Mukherjea) confesses it in front of the police.

If she does not, then I will do whatever is necessary." Bora said Sheena was his own sister and "it is shocking that our own mother introduced her daughter as her sister.

That means she was telling lies from the beginning." Indrani had taken Sheena along with her to Mumbai for higher studies and admitted her at St Xavier's College. Later, Sheena had joined a corporate house as an employee.

"I did not know that my sister was no more till this news came in. When she disappeared in 2012, mother used to tell me that Sheena had gone to USA for higher studies.

"Even when she (Indrani) visited Guwahati in 2013, she told us that Sheena was fine and is in the US," Mikhail said. Indrani left her two children with her parents here and settled outside Assam after her first marriage.

Mikhail said they met their mother only around 12 years back when Indrani had visited Guwahati. "After that, she used to send money for us and our grandparents. But she stopped a few years ago," he added.
