India's Supreme Court blocks actress Indrani Mukerjea's travel while on trial for her daughter's murder.

The Supreme Court in India has rejected Indrani Mukerjea's plea to travel abroad while she is on trial for the murder of her daughter, Sheena Bora. The court also ordered the trial to be completed within a year. The CBI opposed the travel request, citing the sensitivity of the case and its halfway progress, with 96 witnesses already examined. Mukerjea’s lawyers argued that 92 witnesses still need to be examined, but the court dismissed her appeal, overturning a previous special court's permission for her to travel to Spain and the UK.
