Former Union Minister Shashi Tharoor's wife Sunanda Pushkar didn't die because of polonium or any other radioactive substance, the FBI has emailed to the Delhi police.

The 51-year-old was found dead at the luxurious Leela Hotel in Delhi in January 2014.

Earlier, her death was considered as a case of suicide but later, the Delhi Police claimed that Pushkar was poisoned to death by unknown persons.
