Sunanda Pushkar death probe: Subramanian Swamy meets Rajnath Singh, claims police inaction

Delhi: BJP leader Subramanian Swamy said on Thursday that he had met Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh over the issue of Sunanda Pushkar death probe.

Talking to Times Now news channel, Swamy said claimed police inaction in the probe of Congress MP Shashi Tharoor's wife.

He also revealed that he had told Rajnath that he wanted to approach the court for monitoring of the case.

However, Swamy said that he also told the Home Minister that he would wait till about October 15 to approach the court and added that he would write a detailed letter to Rajnath regarding the whole issue.

As per Swamy there was enough proof to begin trial in the case and hinted that some people maybe trying to scuttle the probe.  

52-year-old Sunanda was found dead in her suite at a five-star hotel in south Delhi on the night of January 17, 2014, a day after she was involved in a spat with Pakistani journalist Mehr Tarar on micro-blogging website Twitter over the latter's alleged affair with Tharoor.

Delhi Police filed a case of murder in the case on January 01, 2015 and an SIT was formed to probe the case.
