The Mumbai Police has asked the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to look into and probe the financial transactions and business ventures floated by Peter Mukherjea and wife Indrani in connection with the Sheena Bora murder case.

Sources said the agency has received a communication in this regard from police investigators.

ED enforces two laws — Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) — and sources said the agency will study the case from these angles and decide if a parallel investigation by them is required.

“The documents sent by Mumbai police include some details on the personal finances and transactions of the involved accussed and those related to a media company floated by the Mukerjeas, Indrani and Peter, in the past,” they said.
