” In his plea, Dr. Swamy had questioned the contradictions in the Delhi Police status report and why after 3 and a half years since the death of Sunanda Pushkar, wife of MP Shashi Tharoor, the report continues to be incomplete. While questioned on the absence of comment by Shashi Tharoor, Dr. Swamy said, “Why is Tharoor running away from this case? What is there to hide?.” He also said, “If you love your wife, come and support us.”
