Sunanda Pushkar death: Post-mortem finds mysterious injection mark

An injection mark discovered on the body of Sunanda Pushkar, the late wife of Union minister Shashi Tharoor, could have contributed to her death, according to a new report in DNA. The DNA report is based on Pushkar’s post-mortem report. “All injuries on her body “were caused by blunt force, simple in nature and not contributing to death, except injury number 10, which is an injection mark,” says the story in DNA.

The tests are being conducted by the Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) which has been asked to speed up the process. The final report will reportedly be ready sometime in March. Tharoor had recently said that he was not happy with the pace of investigations in Sunanda’s case. He also said that it seems increasingly that Sunnah died due to “health related” issues and it is also “increasingly clear” that there was no basis to take the case much further. “It seems increasingly that a tragedy happened that is health related and not related to anything else. But we are waiting for the police investigation to get over and to see the final determination by the doctors and medical team,” Tharoor said.
