Delhi police chief denies pressure from Tharoor on Sunanda death case
New Delhi, Jan 8 (IBNS): Delhi Police Commissioner BS Bassi denied any pressure following a letter written by Congress leader Shashi Tharoor alleging that police officers pressurised his help into framing him in the death of his wife Sunanda Pushkar, media reports said.
Bassi said: “I have spoken to the police officers regarding these concerns, and they told me there is no such thing.”
Tharoor wote to the Delhi Police chief in November last year that sleuths used the traumatic physical assault to try and intimidate his help Narayan into confessing that he and I murdered Sunanda, sources said.
