Sunanda's son wants speedy end to inquiry into her death


New Delhi, Oct 11 (PTI) : Sunanda Pushkar's son Shiv Pushkar Menon today asked the Delhi Police to conclude the inquiry into his mother's death expeditiously and impartially and expressed dismay at people "conjecturing" on the cause of her death.

In a statement, Shiv, currently in Dubai, termed the recent speculation in the media surrounding the death of his mother as "deeply disturbing" and said he joins his stepfather Shashi Tharoor in again requesting the investigating officers to conclude the inquiry "expeditiously and impartially".

"The tragic loss of my mother has already caused too much agony to all of us. We have full faith in the police and hope that the unvarnished truth regarding her death would soon be known.

"I am dismayed to see so many people conjecturing on the cause of death on the basis of leaks and without knowing the complete facts. We request everyone to wait for the conclusion of the inquiry. We demand that the police give us a copy of their report as soon as it is completed," Shiv said.

He also hit out at his mother's cousin for seeking a CBI inquiry in view of Sunanda's unnatural death saying, "as to the so-called member of the family who has been garnering media attention, I wish to point out that he has had no contact of any kind with my mother in several years and that we have never met.

"I reject his sudden new-found concern for her and utterly dismiss his claim to speak in any way for our family."

Sunanda was found dead in a 5-star hotel in south Delhi on the night of January 17 after her Twitter spat with Pakistani journalist Mehr Tarar over an alleged affair with Shashi Tharoor.

Delhi Police said that the fresh report submitted by AIIMS doctors on the reasons for Sunanda's death was "inconclusive" and it may go for advanced forensic tests.

    We believe God almighty will punish all criminals in most suitable way in this life and Here after. We have no hope of Justice for Gujrat Victims and later fake encounter Victims in our court. Those who were on helms of these incidents occupying top posts . But Truth prevails .Justice will be delivered in its own time. Tharoor do not look like a murderer. But again we don not know.

    there is a barking dog in BJP called Subramanim swamy. he is same like his master in BJP. Their job is to make every incident in India controversial and then hold the Gandhi family responsible. These shameless characters are a bad news for India and all the politicians. As such politics stinks and these fellows make it even stinker. The shameless Modi worshipers are waiting for some masala to comment. None of you Modi worshipers see reasoning in any matters but comment because you love this man. Sharam Karo!

    You seem to be a diehard devotee of the 6th std educated Italian barmaid at the greek restaurant. The beating of the Khangress to pulp in the May elections, has humiliated you soo much that you are trying to vent your frustration in every way possible in this forum. No matter how much you shout and cry, you are not going any where beyond this forum, If it would Janardhana Punjari would not have lost by 200K votes.

    I understand his panic! he is afraid, few of his deeds may come out too!! he was caught in Dubai, by narcotics authorities there.. and he was released by some great FOREIGN AFFAIRS MINISTER of STATE!! -) ....

    in ny case, if it was a private citizen and doubtful case, we need not have pressed for justice.. but Here there is a big mess beta.. ISI, betting syndicate, Daamad gate, ...its not simple and needs to be investigated! may be a person who has softened his stand on Modi, needs to be questioned..? .... anyways, Just trust the system to get justice to ur departed mother, cos while she cant defend her.. they speak nonsense about her.. as she is ill, depressed, had lupus, was having sleepign tablets, was biting herself to death blah blah!!... while the truth was she wanted to have a Pressconference next day 3pm!!! who killed her, nation wants to know -)

    Really disgusting remark/views. Why pointing towards Shashi only, why not explore Sunanda's IPL links.
    In fact Shashi Taroor is a person having outstanding class/intellect and is undoubtedly an asset to indian politics.
    Let us hope that our honorable 56"chest PM will extend the much needed free hand to the Police & the judiciary, so that the Justice be delivered in Sunanda Pushkar & Vadra case.
