Government says probe in Indrani's drug overdose to be over in one week
Last week, Indrani was admitted to Mumbai's J J Hospital amid speculation that she might have attempted suicide through an overdose of drugs, but now, according to reports quoting hospital sources, she has regained consciousness and is out of danger.
Doctors said that currently they cannot allow anybody to question Indrani, but if her condition improves she will be sent back to jail and investigating authorities will be able to probe the murder accused.
Wife of media baron Peter Mukerjea, Indrani was arrested by Khar Police on August 25 for her alleged role in the murder of Sheena, 24, her daughter from an earlier marriage, in 2012. Sheena was allegedly kidnapped from outside National College in Bandra and strangled to death in a car by Indrani, her former husband Sanjeev Khanna and driver Shyamvar Rai.
