The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has submitted its final list of 125 witnesses in the Sheena Bora murder case, including 26-year-old Vidhie Mukerjea, daughter of prime accused Indrani Mukerjea, 53, and her former husband, co-accused Sanjeev Khanna.

MUMBAI:

Vidhie Mukerjea, Sheena's half-sister, is considered a crucial witness, as she is believed to have insight into the tensions between Indrani, Sheena, and her fiance Rahul Mukerjea, Peter Mukerjea's son from a previous marriage.

The submission follows Indrani's recent objections over Vidhie's exclusion from the priority list of 69 witnesses submitted earlier this month. In response, Indrani's lawyer, Ranjit Sangle, had urged the prosecution to clarify the complete list of witnesses to allow a holistic defence strategy.
