Former media tycoon Peter Mukerjea, who was arrested on Friday, was taken to CBI headquarters in Delhi on Tuesday for further questioning in connection with his involvement in Sheena Bora murder case, sources said.
Peter was arrested three months after the discovery of Sheena Bora's remains in a forest near Mumbai indicated that she had been killed.
The media tycoon's wife Indrani Mukerjea was arrested in August, days after the crime surfaced, for allegedly killing her 24-year-old daughter with the help of her ex-husband Sanjeev Khanna and driver Shyam Rai, who are also in jail.
The Central Bureau of Investigation believes Peter knew that Sheena Bora was dead. CBI accused him of "deliberately concealing facts" pertaining to murder and disposal of the victim's body.
He was taken from Mumbai to Delhi early Tuesday by a special team of CBI investigating the case, sources said.
