New Delhi: Sunanda Pushkar, who was upset over an alleged extra-marital affair between her minister husband Shashi Tharoor and a Pakistani journalist Mehr Tarar, was found dead in a five-star hotel room which police suspect may be a case of suicide.
The death of Sunanda comes just 24 hours after her spat with the Pakistani scribe accusing her of stalking her husband Tharoor.
The war of words between the Union Minister’s wife and Tarar went public after Sunanda opted for venting her anger on Twitter.
Here are some of the posts by Sunanda and Mehr on their Twitter accounts:

Or perhaps to build up twitter followers thats a cheap thing 2 do ask the Pakistanis what they think of her & yes 20 calls a day is stalking

She further tweeted that she and Shashi are happy together.

Mehr Tarar, on her own Twitter account, said Sunanda was `out of her mind`:
I have nothing to say to a woman clearly out of her mind. To be called an ISI agent, a stalker..I have nothing to add. Just shows who she is

Taking on Sunanda, Tarar added:
For a woman to trash another woman linking her w/her husband is the lowest form of sickness ever. It's nauseous. No respect for her marriage
