Sunanda's cousin suspects Tharoor involved in the murder

January 06, 2015 15:44

In October last year, when the AIIMS post-mortem report had said that Sunanda Pushkar died to poisoning, Ashok Kumar, the cousin of Sunanda Pushkar, had told the media that he suspected Tharoor's involvement in the case. Kumar said that Pushkar was very upset about the closeness her husband shared with Pakistani journalist Mehr Tarar. Sunanda could never commit suicide as she used to tell others how to lead their lives, Kumar had said.

Kumar told a news agency that that the family knew it wasn't a natural death, but was planned. Raising questions over Tharoor, Kumar asked why would the Congress leader go out for a meeting when his wife was unwell. Kumar had demanded a CBI probe into the incident.
