Indrani Mukerjea stepped out of the jail around 5.30 pm, hugged her lawyer Sana Raees Shaikh, smiled and waved to waiting media.
Over six years after she was arrested for allegedly murdering her daughter Sheena Bora, former media executive Indrani Mukerjea on Friday evening walked out of Mumbai’s Byculla women's prison here.
“I am happy,” a beaming Ms. Mukherjea told waiting reporters.
Sporting jet black hair, Ms. Mukerjea stepped out of the jail around 5.30 pm, hugged her lawyer Sana Raees Shaikh, smiled and waved to waiting media.
She then stepped into the lawyer’s high-end car and drove to her Worli flat. She did not entertain queries from media there.
Her changed appearance prompted a flurry of comments on social media. “So they have beauty parlours in jail,” read a tweet.
Supreme Court granted Ms. Mukherjea bail in the case on Wednesday.
Sheena Bora (24) was killed sometime in April 2012 if the investigators are to be believed, but the crime came to light three years later with the arrest of Shyamvar Rai, Indrani's former driver, for illegal possession of weapon on August 21, 2015.
