Peter Mukerjea distances himself from his wife Indrani by ensuring a separate legal team for himself, reports India Today TV.


 Peter has said that he will separate his lawyers from Indrani's and said he was shocked at reports that Indrani wanted to kill Mikhail as well. He is also believed to have told a friend that he had been living with a psycopath.


He has also said he will not involve himself directly in any way in the case. He had earlier wanted to be a part of the defence team and had even kept legal counsels for Indrani on standby.

Indrani Mukerjea was arrested a week ago for the 2012 murder of her daughter Sheena Bora. She will be brought to a Mumbai court today. Sources in her legal team say Mukerjea has been physically abused by the police, a complaint that has been shared in a call with Mumbai police chief Rakesh Maria.


Indrani Mukherjea's counsel has complained to Mumbai Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria that his officials are forcibly extracting a confession from Indrani. The counsel said that she was not allowed to meet her client late on Saturday night and that Indrani's face was bruised and swollen.
