Mumbai: The Central Bureau of investigation on Friday requested the Maharashtra government to preserve Indrani Mukerjea's samples taken in hospital. Indrani is the prime accused in the murder of her daughter Sheena Bora.
These include samples of her stomach wash, urine and blood relating to her recent hospitalisation. The CBI has also asked Maharashtra government to send the inquiry report of prison/any other authority, and action taken in this regard.
Meanwhile, sources said that jail authorities have acceded to Indrani's request that she should not be kept in solitary confinement as it would make her more depressed.
Indrani was rushed to state-run JJ Hospital after she fell unconscious. The 43-year-old was discharged from the hospital on Tuesday last.
After Indrani's hospitalisation, conflicting reports had emerged on suspected drug overdose in prison. While one report showed she had overdosed on anti-depressant pills, the other found no such thing.
Indrani and the two other accused - her former husband Sanjeev Khanna and driver Shyam Rai - were arrested in August-end on the charge of murdering her daughter Sheena and disposing the body in a forest in Raigad district, about 84 km from here, in April 2012.
The case, initially with Mumbai Police, is now being handled by CBI.
