Apex Court grants bail to Indrani Mukerjea

The Supreme Court today granted bail to Indrani Mukerjea, who is one of the accused in the Sheena Bora murder case. The Supreme Court also took into account the fact that Indrani has remained in jail for over 6.5 years and that the Sheena Bora murder case was based on ‘circumstantial evidence.’

The order was passed by a bench comprising Justices L Nageswara Rao, BR Gavai and AS Bopanna in response to a special leave petition filed against an order passed by the Bombay High Court in November 2021 rejecting her bail plea.

She had been denied bail on multiple occasions by a special CBI court, which is conducting the trial in the murder case.
