Shakereh Khaleeli (née Namazie; 1947–1991) was an Indian real estate developer and philanthropist who was murdered by her second husband, Swami Shradhananda (Murali Manohar Mishra). She had been previously married to Indian diplomat Akbar Mirza Khaleeli, the Indian envoy to Iran and Australia. They divorced in 1985 and she married Shradhananda the following year.

Her family noticed she was missing in 1991 and alerted the police. In 1994, after three years of a sting operation the Karnataka Police got an admission of murder from Shradhananda and he led the police to her remains which were buried in her own home. She had been drugged, suffocated, and buried in a coffin-like box. He was convicted of the murder in 2005 and sentenced to death. The sentence was commuted to life imprisonment in 2008.
