The widow of an Indian businessman who was wrongly accused of a 1997 murder in Scotland is planning to sue Scottish authorities, claiming the case destroyed her husband’s life despite his eventual exoneration.
Sougat Mukherjee, who was named as a suspect in the killing of Tracey Wylde in Glasgow, died in Mumbai in 2023 at the age of 44, nearly four years after the real killer was convicted. His wife, Sapna Mukherjee, said the impact of the accusations was “irreversible” and has appealed to PM Modi to support legal action against Police Scotland and prosecutors, The BBC News reported.
