Sunanda Pushkar death: Urine traces found on Sunanda’s bed

A highly-placed source said that Pushkar had reportedly urinated before she died

New Delhi: Even as the mystery deepens into the death of former Union minister Shashi Tharoor’s wife Sunanda Pushkar, Delhi police sources said they were corroborating the forensic evidence reportedly showing traces of urine on Pushkar’s bed.

A highly-placed source said that Pushkar had reportedly urinated before she died. The investigators are looking into whether traces of urine had any link with her death.

The police on Thursday sought a clear opinion from the AIIMS forensics department explaining the contradictions between the autopsy and viscera reports. While the autopsy had hinted to death by poisoning, the viscera samples report had ruled it out.

Sources also said that the police is also looking into the fresh injection mark found on Pushkar’s arm. “We want to ascertain whether some injection was given to her before she collapsed,” said a source.

The police is also re-examining the CCTV footage of the hotel to see who all had entered her room.

Meanwhile, the Central Administrative Tribunal has put on hold any change in the head of department of the forensic department in AIIMS till July 11.
Sources in the institute say that they are waiting for the AIIMS director to take further action.
