CCTV footage crucial

January 09, 2015 01:29 am | Updated November 16, 2021 05:54 pm IST - NEW DELHI:

Even as Hotel Leela Palace, where Sunanda Puskhar was found dead last year, clarified that all the CCTV cameras in the hotel were functioning on the day of the incident, the Delhi Police remained tight lipped on the contents of the footage.

Asked about those present on the floor where suite number 345, in which Ms. Pushkar and her husband Shashi Tharoor stayed, was located, Delhi Police Commissioner B.S. Bassi said “all relevant details would be shared at the appropriate time.”

The footage can establish who entered the room on the day, because the new FIR states that the poison was either fed orally or injected. This could have been done by those who visited the room.
