Mumbai, Nov 20 (IBNS) Media tycoon Peter Mukerjea, who was arrested on Thursday, has been charged with destroying evidence and lying to protect his wife Indrani Mukerjea in connection with the Sheena Bora murder case, media reports said.

According to NDTV, The charges listed against  Mukerjea are "causing disappearance of evidence of offence and giving false information to screen offender."

 Mukerjea's wife Indrani was arrested in August, days after the remains of Sheena Bora - her daughter - were found in the Raigad forest 80 km from Mumbai.

Sheena was strangled in 2012 allegedly by Indrani Mukerjea, her ex-husband Sanjeev Khanna and driver Shyam Rai.

Khanna and Rai are also under arrest.

 Peter Mukerjea was arrested after Indrani Mukerjea's conflicting statements reportedly led the CBI to believe that he was aware of the plot to kill his step-daughter.
