TV9 News: Sunanda Pushkar Death Case: Shashi Tharoor May Be Quizzed..., A Special Investigation Team will probe the murder of Sunanda Pushkar, while her husband Shashi Tharoor, Congress MP and former Union minister, could be questioned again, Delhi Police chief BS Bassi said on Wednesday. "The special team which was formed to investigate the murder is looking into each and every possibility of the case and whatever is needed will be done," police commissioner Bassi told the media. On being asked whether Tharoor could also be questioned, Bassi said: "We will do, if needed." Asked why a case of murder was registered almost a year after her death, Bassi said the final medical report from All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) warranted an FIR to be filed so that Sunanda's viscera samples can be sent abroad for further tests. Delhi Police had on Tuesday registered a murder case under section 302 of the Indian Penal Code on the basis of the AIIMS medical report which concluded that her death was unnatural and due to poisoning, but nobody has been named as a suspect as yet. No one has been named in the FIR too. Sunanda was found dead in a room of a five-star hotel in New Delhi on January 17, 2014. No ailments PTI quoted unnamed sources as saying that a Delhi Police team visited a hospital in Thiruvananthapuram in Kerala on December 2 last year where Sunanda was admitted days before she was found dead. "The team met the doctors who had treated Pushkar and questioned them about the ailment she was admitted there for and asked them to share her medical records," said a senior police official. Pushkar was admitted to Kerala Institute of Medical Sciences last year between January 12-14. She was found dead three days later. Her family had said that she was suffering from lupus and was taking heavy medication. However, AIIMS doctors said she was not suffering from lupus and that she was a healthy individual. The AIIMS medical board had, in its second report submitted to police on September 30, said that her brain, kidney, lungs and liver were functioning normally and that her death was caused by poisoning. The 12-page "Subsequent Medical Board Opinion" had said, "The cause of death in this case is poisoning. Viscera are positive for ethyl alcohol, caffeine, acetaminophen and cotinine." From the medical documents made available to them, the panel has also concluded that Sunanda did not have cardiac problem. She was not suffering from any diseases like hypertension, diabetes or tuberculosis.
