Former Union minister Shashi Tharoor on Wednesday sought a speedy inquiry for a "clear and definitive conclusion" as to the cause of death of his wife Sunanda Pushkar in the wake of reported claims by a senior forensic doctor that he was pressurised to manipulate the autopsy report in the case.

"Upon the tragic loss of my wife Sunanda and from the very beginning, I have requested for a thorough investigation by the authorities to be conducted and concluded rapidly and transparently.

"I reiterate my request to bring this protracted inquiry to a clear and definitive conclusion at the earliest, so as to put all speculation to rest," Tharoor said in a statement on Facebook.

The head of the forensics department at AIIMS, Dr Sudhir Gupta, has claimed that he was pressurized to give a doctored report in Pushkar's death case.
