Just hours after the Jamaican police made the sensational disclosure that coach Bob Woolmer was murdered; Pakistan’s Geo TV has made revelations of a suspect being arrested by the Jamaican police in connection with Woolmer’s murdered.
Geo TV told India’s NDTV of the suspect being arrested by the Jamaican police and that his nationality was being concealed at this stage.
There is information that the so called suspect’s identity would be revealed in the next 8-10 hours and that his mobile phone has been confiscated to retrieve the phone numbers stored in it as they could provide vital clues to Woolmer’s murder.
Further revelations state that the person arrested had been in touch with the Indian and Sri Lanka teams, raising further doubts about the complexity of the nexus involved.
Fresh information has revealed that the person arrested was a frequent visitor of Bob Woolmer and had also been speaking to some of the Indian, Sri Lankan and Pakistani team members.
Although Pakistan’s Geo TV has made a startling disclosure about a suspect being already arrested by the Jamaican police in connection with coach Bob Woolmer’s murder, his nationality is yet to be revealed.
However, reports from Jamaica suggest that the person arrested is not a Jamaican, although he has been in touch with Pakistan, Sri Lankan and Indian players too.
He is also known to have been a frequent visitor of Bob Woolmer.
