Wife Of Indian Minister Found Dead Over Reports On Her Affair

              

The wife of Indian minister Shashi Tharoor has been found dead, following reports that he was having an affair, Indian media have said.
Sunanda Pushkar is reported to have been discovered at a hotel in Delhi.


The couple became embroiled in controversy over a series of Twitter messages on Thursday which appeared to reveal he was having an affair with a Pakistani journalist.
The couple insisted they were happily married, blaming “unauthorized tweets”.
Mr Tharoor married Ms Pushkar, a former Dubai-based businesswoman, in 2010.
He was forced to resign from his first ministerial position in 2010 amid controversy over his involvement in bidding for a cricket team.
Ms Pushkar had allegedly received a free stake in the Indian Premier League franchise he was bidding for.
