Mumbai (Maharashtra): Indrani Mukerjea, accused in the Sheena Bora murder case, has filed an application before a special CBI court in Mumbai, seeking exemption from wearing convict's uniform (green saree) in the prison.
The court has asked Byculla Jail to file a reply on the application.
In her application, Mukerjea said that jail authorities were asking her to wear the convict's uniform even though she is an under-trial accused. The next date of hearing on her application is January 5.
In 2012, Indrani along with Peter Mukerjea and former husband Sanjeev Khanna had allegedly murdered Sheena over a financial dispute. The alleged crime was uncovered three years later in 2015.
