Sheena murder case: Sanjeev Khanna confesses his complicity in the crime

Mumbai, Aug 28: The sensational Sheena Bora murder case probe tonight acquired a new turn with police claiming that Sanjeev Khanna, former husband of Indrani Mukerjea, confessed to his complicity in the crime during a joint interrogation of three accused on a day the victim's skeleton remains were recovered.

"We just interrogated the third accused(Khanna)and he has confessed to his complicity in the crime," Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria told reporters after Indrani, wife of former STAR CEO Peter Mukerjea, her driver Shyam Rai and Khanna were brought face to face along with her son Mikhail Bora.

Khanna had earlier claimed that he was sleeping when 24-year-old Sheena was murdered and found her dead in the vehicle. "This morning we have recovered the skeletal remains of the deceased Sheena Bora. We have also recovered her passport from Dehradun today.

This would negate the theory that Sheena went to the US. Further inverstigations are going on," he said. Maria said the skeletal remains would be sent for DNA test tomorrow.
