Delhi Police chief B.S. Bassi Wednesday said Congress MP Shashi Tharoor would be questioned again Thursday with regard to the murder of his wife Sunanda Pushkar in January last year.

"After questioning Pushkar's son and other people, we need to question Tharoor again. He has been asked to appear before the SIT tomorrow," Bassi said.

The police chief, however, did not disclose the time when the former union minister would be questioned.

Tharoor was earlier questioned Jan 19 at the Vasant Vihar police station in south Delhi.

Police had constituted a special investigative team (SIT) to probe the murder after registering a FIR in the case Jan 1 this year.

Sunanda Pushkar was found dead in a luxury hotel room Jan 17, 2014.

A case of murder was registered against unknown people Jan 1, 2015.
