Netflix’s The Indrani Mukerjea Story: Buried Truth release date postponed
The release of Netflix’s docuseries The Indrani Mukerjea Story: Buried Truth has hit a snag. The streaming giant announced a delay until February 29. This decision came after the Bombay High Court intervened. The Bombay High Court directed Netflix to withhold the series until the end of the month.
The court also mandated a special screening of the documentary for Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) officers. The next hearing is set for February 29. This development follows the CBI’s appeal to halt the release, which was initially declined by a special court.
Concerns raised by the CBI revolve around potential interference with ongoing investigations related to the Sheena Bora Murder Case, in which Indrani Mukerjea is a key figure. Notably, the CBI expressed worries about the impact the series could have on the case.
Indrani Mukerjea faces a slew of charges, including murder, criminal conspiracy, and forgery, as per the Indian Penal Code. Despite being out on bail since May 2022 after spending seven years in Byculla Jail, her legal battles continue.
As the legal proceedings unfold, the fate of The Indrani Mukerjea Story: Buried Truth remains uncertain, pending further deliberation by the Bombay High Court.
