New Delhi, July 7 (IBNS): A Delhi court has granted a regular bail to Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, who is an accused in the Sunanda Pushkar death case, media reports said.

Tharoor arrived before the court on Saturday.

The next hearing of the case will be on July 26.

Pushkar was Tharoor's wife, who died under mysterious circumstances at a hotel room in New Delhi in 2014.

On May 14, Delhi Police filed the chargesheet in connection with the death of Pushkar, naming Tharoor as an abetter.

Charges under sections 498A and 306 of Indian Penal Code (IPC) were filed against the leader.

On Thursday, Tharoor was granted an anticipatory bail by Delhi's Patiala House Court on a surety of Rs 1 lakh.

Tharoor now can't leave the country without the permission of the court.
