And the soap opera drags on. Headless, pointless. Asking questions of Tharoor to which they already know the answer.
Wait, this is India. Where soap dramas have no end. Should have known...

Soap cum circus. The crucial information will never be known as the police seems more interested in running a pointless show to catch a singular culprit (when there is actually more than 1) rather than the bigger scarier question-marks which concern the nation's security. Like, how much did Tharoor blab to his Paki (ISI) love interest? What was Sunanda going to reveal? Some little political indiscretion/treachery by Tharoor? And the housekeeper said Sunanda had already revealed it to the media, so why isn't Barkha on the list of those to be investigated? (Interrogation will be pointless as Barkha and gang would have already swept away all evidence. Better to impound all her devices and use a file recovery program on her mobile devices, personal laptops/desktops, work machines, etc. See if any deleted files contain relevant info. Doubt it. But sure would be fun to trouble Burkha. And who knows, maybe some of her other criminal activities might turn up...)

Wow is the Delhi police slow. Everything they have "discovered" was already pieced together by Sunanda's twitter friends immediately upon Sunanda's death and by Subrahmanya Swami. Delhi police may as well drop their own investigations and just carry over the tweeters & S Swami's conclusions as well: time to nab Tharoor, KKKangressis and expose the ISI.

Quote:Shashi Tharoor grilled for 4 hours in Sunanda Pushkar murder case
IndiaToday.in New Delhi, January 20, 2015 | UPDATED 09:24 IST
Shashi Tharoor
AdTech Ad
Shashi TharoorShashi Tharoor was intensely questioned on Monday night for about four hours by a special team of Delhi Police on the circumstances leading to the mysterious death of his wife Sunanda Pushkar a year back and her spat with Pakistani journalist Mehr Tarar over her links with the Congress MP.
Tharoor's questioning, which started around 8 PM ended around midnight. He left in his vehicle without responding to questions from waiting media. Police too refused to divulge any details of what transpired during the questioning, reported PTI.
Police sources said that this was the first round of questioning and Tharoor may be called again.Read: Sunanda Pushkar case: SIT questions Shashi Tharoor
However, sources said that the former Union minister was asked about the 15 injuries on her body, especially injury number ten which was an injection mark as the medical report has indicated that the poison which caused her death could have either been taken orally or injected.
He was also asked about the reason of the tiff the couple had on the flight from Thiruvananthapuram to Delhi on January 15 following which she left him at the airport and checked in at Leela Hotel.
Tharoor was asked whether Sunanda was suffering from any disease and the kind of medication she was taking. He was quizzed about the empty Alprax tablets which were found in the hotel room and who used to consume it as the viscera tests were found negative for it.

He was queried whether she was suffering from Lupus (a kind of skin disorder) as was speculated.
A visibly glum Tharoor faced searching questions nearly three weeks after a case of murder was registered on the basis of a medical report that concluded that she died of poisoning.
This is for the first time Tharoor has been questioned on death of 52-year-old Sunanda by the police. He was earlier examined by the SDM who was carrying out an inquest proceeding in the case. She was found dead at a luxury hotel on January 17 last year.
A five-member Special Investigation team comprises DCP(South) Prem Nath, Additional DCP PS Kushwah besides three officers.
Tharoor, donning a blue shirt and a black jacket, reached the office of Anti Auto Theft Squad (AATS) in South Delhi's Vasant Vihar area. Tharoor was issued a notice by SIT to join the investigation.
The Congress MP had a meeting with his lawyers at his residence in Lodhi Estate before proceeding to SIT's temporary office which has been heavily barricaded to keep a waiting media at bay.
The sources said that Tharoor got emotional at times as he faced a volley of questions from the SIT.
The former Union minister was also quizzed about another woman who his domestic help Narayan named in frequent tiffs between the couple.
Tharoor was asked about the last time he saw Sunanda alive and the happenings on the night of January 17 when he first found her dead at the hotel suite.
Among the questions he faced was at what time he left the AICC venue for the hotel and what did he do when there was no response to his calls to Sunanda during the day.
He was also asked when was the time fissures started to appear between him and Sunanda and what were the reasons for it. He was asked about his visit to Dubai and his alleged meeting with Mehr Tarar there.
He was asked whether he had had any scuffle with Sunanda on the intervening night of January 16 and 17 which had led to the injury marks on her body and the broken glass pieces in the room.
Police wanted him to list out the people who had met them at the hotel and why they had called doctors to the hotel room instead of rushing her to a nearby hospital when they had found that "something has happened to her".
Sources said that police will tally his version today with what he gave to the SDM last year to see whether there are any discrepancies.
Sunanda was found dead in her suite at Leela Palace hotel on January 17 last year, a day after she was involved in a spat with Mehr Tarar on micro-blogging website twitter over the latter's alleged affair with Tharoor.
Some of those questioned in the case so far include Tharoor's domestic help Narayan Singh, family friend Sanjay Dewan, the hotel doctor who pronounced her dead and hotel staff including its manager.
Sources said that police will also question in a day or two a woman journalist with whom Sunanda had spoken before her death and Tharoor's PS Abhinav Kumar who had informed the then SHO of Sarojini Nagar police station about the death.

Quote:SIT reveals Sunanda Pushkar, Shashi Tharoor argued over writer Katherine Abraham
Mahender Singh Manral | Mail Today | New Delhi, January 15, 2015 | UPDATED 13:51 IST
Special Investigation Team's (SIT) probe into the murder mystery of Sunanda Pushkar Tharoor, wife of former Union minister Shashi Tharoor, has now revealed that a woman called Katie, over whom the couple reportedly argued, is actually Thiruvananthapuram-based author named Katherine Abraham.
[...]
(Nothing useful about Katie except the following. Basically, the media attention is all a PR campaign to boost the popularity of some no doubt 3rd rate book by total unknown christo Katie.)
Meanwhile, BJP leader Subramanian Swamy on Wednesday also claimed on his Twitter account that Katie is actually Katherine Abraham. However, Swamy later tweeted, "My information is from the police. I made no such claim. I said Katie is a girl called Katherine, but will not identify her because she is not involved in the murder."
(Delhi police is now just dragging deliberately. Katie is an obvious red herring. Never mind, the KKKangressi media circus will continue. I understand Delhi is still ruled by AAP? No wonder the Delhi police is so slow, must be a commandment from higher-ups: "there Shall Be bureaucratic red tape, incompetence, bumbling... But make like you're doing something. Lots of hullabaloo, regular news reports about nothing etc." AAP is communist, after all.)
[...]
Meanwhile, sources told Mail Today that SIT investigators believe that someone close to Sunanda could have injected the poison into her body that led to her death. "It is a clear case of poisoning and we need to find out the motive behind this murder," the police source said.
(Ya don't say. Finally, the police is catching on. A little slow, but "you can do it".)
Investigation into the case has so far revealed that Sunanda was restless and was clearly unhappy during her last days. "There are some contradictory statements on her mental state as people close to Tharoor have told SIT sleuths that there was no problem in the couple's relationship. However, a lot of people we questioned said Sunanda was clearly very disturbed," a source said, adding that her brother Rajesh Pushkar told the police that his sister was happy in her life. Sunanda had never complained against Tharoor, but she was a bit depressed due to controversies surrounding IPL and an ugly Twitter spat with Tarar, Rajesh had said.
(Delhi police is veering off course into "Sunanda was depressed" territory. Next they may conclude she poisoned herself to make it look like murder and throw suspicions on the "innocent" ISI and treacherous Tharoor. Convolutions are nothing when it comes to defending KKKangressi hits.)
Wow is the Delhi police slow. Everything they have "discovered" was already pieced together by Sunanda's twitter friends immediately upon Sunanda's death and by Subrahmanya Swami. Delhi police may as well drop their own investigations and just carry over the tweeters & S Swami's conclusions as well: time to nab Tharoor, KKKangressis and expose the ISI.
