New Delhi, Jul 20 (IBNS) : The Delhi High Court on Thursday asked the city police to file a status report on the probe into the mysterious death Congress MP Shashi Tharoor's wife Sunanada Pushkar.

Responding to a petition filed by BJP leader Subramanian Swamy, a two-member bench of the High Court directed the police to submit the status report in three days.

Delhi Police standing counsel Rahul Mehra informed the court that the status report of the investigating agency has been given to him and he will go through it  before placing it on record.

Swamy has alleged that "inordinate delay" has been caused in the investigation "which is a blot on the justice system".

Pushkar was found dead in a suite of a five-star hotel in south Delhi here on the night of January 17, 2014.
