CBI sources remained tight lipped about reasons which triggered this sudden move but confirmed that Mukerjea will be further examined here.

wake of his apparent flip flop on various questions.

Sheena's mother Indrani Mukerjea, her former husband Sanjeev Khanna and her former driver Shyamvar Rai are listed in the charge sheet in the case for the murder that took place in April 2012 and are in judicial custody in Mumbai.
Sheena (24) was Indrani's daughter from an earlier marriage.
Peter was arrested arrested on November 19 and granted CBI custody till November 26 by the special court in Mumbai.
CBI has claimed financial transaction as the motive behind the murder of Sheena and Peter during his interrogation disclosed investments of crores of rupees made by him and Indrani.
The agency has also claimed that it has across some important information and incriminating documents which are very crucial for the purpose of investigation about which Peter had exclusive so he needed to be interrogated thoroughly.
