A special court today granted&nbsp;permission to CBI to question Indrani Mukerjea, prime accused&nbsp;in the Sheena Bora murder case, in Byculla women's prison&nbsp;here.
Special CBI court Judge H S Mahajan gave permission to&nbsp;the central investigative agency.
"We had sought permission to interrogate Indrani in jail&nbsp;as we have got some more material and we need to confront&nbsp;her with that," a CBI official said.&nbsp;

The official added that they had sought permission to&nbsp;question Indrani for four days, to which the court granted.
Meanwhile, CBI opposed former media baron and Indrani's&nbsp;husband Peter Mukerjea's bail application stating that he was&nbsp;involved in the conspiracy.
"Indrani gave full information to Peter about the&nbsp;conspiracy. He had knowledge and he was part and parcel of&nbsp;the conspiracy," special CBI prosecutors Bharat Badami and&nbsp;Kavita Patil argued.
Badami also told the court that Indrani was giving&nbsp;"running commentary" to Peter about the crime.
However, the court sought to know from the agency about&nbsp;the motive of Sanjeev Khanna, Indrani's former husband, &nbsp;n the&nbsp;criminal conspiracy with Indrani when Peter was also there.
Rahul Mukerjea, Peter's son from previous marriage, and&nbsp;Sheena were in a relationship. CBI had earlier told the court&nbsp;that Indrani and Peter were unhappy with their relationship.
Badami said that when Peter came to know that Sheena was&nbsp;Indrani's daughter, everything changed and it resulted in&nbsp;the murder.&nbsp;
Badami also told the court that at the time of disposal of&nbsp;Sheena's body, there was a conversation of 15 minutes between&nbsp;Indrani and Peter. "After that, there were no calls at odd&nbsp;hours and not even before that," he argued.
The prosecutor also told the court that if Peter was&nbsp;on good terms with certain top police officials then why&nbsp;didn't he help Rahul in finding Sheena after her&nbsp;"disappearance".&nbsp;
The court will continue to hear the arguments tomorrow.&nbsp;
The bail application of Peter, who was arrested in&nbsp;November last year, had been rejected once earlier. Besides, Indrani and Peter, Sanjeev Khanna and her driver Shyamvar Rai&nbsp;are also accused in the case.
Indrani, Rai and Khanna allegedly strangled Sheena&nbsp;(24), Indrani's daughter from earlier relationship, inside a&nbsp;car in April 2012. The crime came to light last August.
