Sunanda death case: Tharoor records statement before SDM

In his letter to Shinde, Tharoor said he was “horrified” to see the “reckless speculation rampant” in the media. He said the relevant authorities should be asked to expedite the investigation and come to a rapid conclusion so that the truth emerges at the earliest.

Tharoor, in his 50-minute statement before the SDM, is understood to have narrated the events prior to the death of his wife Sunanda in a five-star hotel suite here.  

Apart from Sunanda's brother, Nalini Singh appeared before the SDM claiming she was one of the last persons Sunanda had talked to.

“I have shared with the SDM exactly what Sunanda said to me. She was planning something as she had something in her mind. She did share something with me and I shared it with the SDM,” Singh told PTI.
Singh said Sunanda was “very distraught, disturbed and upset” following the Tarar episode.

One of the doctors of the three-member panel that carried out the postmortem today said no trace of alcohol was found in Sunanda's body.
