Indrani Mukerjea, a prime accused in the Sheena Bora murder case, claimed before the trial court on Friday that accused-turned-approver and her former driver, Shyamvar Rai, had demanded R50 lakh from her to not testify against her.

Mukerjea made the submission while arguing in person on her bail application before special CBI Judge J C Jagdale. While deposing in the court, Rai narrated a different sequence of events from what he had told the Mumbai police [who probed the case initially], she said.
