New Delhi: Pakistani journalist Mehr Tarar is likely to be questioned in connection with the murder of Sunanda Pushkar, wife of Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, police said on Thursday.


"Tarar is a relevant person in the case... If necessary, she will be examined," said Delhi Police Commissioner B.S. Bassi.


Tarar's friendship with Tharoor had reportedly led to a row between Tharoor and Pushkar.
