Sunanda Pushkar's death: Police receives final medical report

| | Jan 15, 2016, at 08:08 pm
New Delhi, Jan 15 (IBNS) The Delhi police have received an FBI report that could present new information on how Sunanda Pushkar died, reports said.

The report, analysed by medical experts at AIIMS  is now  being studied by a special team set up to investigate  Pushkar's death.

Pushkar, 53, was the wife of  former union minister Shashi Tharoor. She was found dead in a luxury hotel in Delhi in January 2014, days after she publicly accused him of having an affair with a Pakistani journalist.

The police registered a case of murder and  questioned  Tharoor more than once.

After an autopsy by doctors at Delhi's AIIMS hospital initially concluded  Pushkar probably died of an overdose of anti-depressant drugs, the police said she was poisoned. Amid conflicting information about what caused her death, the FBI was asked to help analyse her viscera samples or samples of organs like the large intestine.
