New Delhi, April 30
A Delhi court today allowed Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, an accused in a case related to wife Sunanda Pushkar’s death, to travel abroad.
Special Judge Arun Bhardwaj granted permission to Tharoor to visit the US from May 5 to 20. In his application, Tharoor claimed that he has to attend certain press meets there.
Granting him bail in the case, the court had directed him not to leave the country without its permission. The former Union minister has been charged under Sections 498-A (husband or his relative subjecting a woman to cruelty) and 306 of the IPC, but has not been arrested in the case.
Pushkar was found dead in a suite of a hotel in the city on January 17, 2014. The couple was staying in the hotel as the official bungalow of Tharoor was being renovated. — PTI
