Pakistani investigator raises says evidence 'inconclusive

“Inconclusive” evidence means that it would be wrong to classify the death of Bob Woolmer as murder, according to a Pakistani investigator who was sent to Jamaica to assist with the investigation
Mir Zubair Mahmood, a Karachi-based detective who was part of the two-member investigation team dispatched by the government last month, reflected on the lack of evidence. “We have gone through all the confidential investigation which I cannot share with you because it would be unethical, but I can say that at this point no-one can say that it was a murder or a natural death.”
The comments cast doubt over earlier comments by police there that Woolmer had been murdered. “Several tests have been sent to Scotland Yard and the results are awaited,” Mahmood said. “And the most I can say [is] that the investigation … is inconclusive.”
The Pakistani investigation team returned from the Caribbean last week and handed in a 40-page report on the findings in Jamaica to the interior secretary last week. The report follows a report in a British newspaper that suggested Woolmer might have been poisoned by a weedkiller, high concentrations of which were found in his stomach and on the outside of a champagne glass.

‘Mushtaq passed champagne to Bob’

New Delhi: The Bob Woolmer murder has taken a new twist. A Pakistan based televison channel claims that the two champagne bottles reportedly mixed with poison were given to Woolmer by bowling coach Mushtaq Ahmed.
Mushtaq Ahmed apparently received the bottles from some other person and passed them to Woolmer, ARY TV quoted Pakistan’s media manager for the World Cup, Pervez Mir as saying.
Mir also alleged that the team manager, Talat Ali was a witness to the incident.
The bottles were recovered from the Pegasus hotel room of Woolmer who died under mysterious circumstances a day after Pakistan’s shocking World Cup defeat at the hands of Ireland. Pakistan failed to qualify to the Super Eights stage of the World Cup.
Speaking to CNN-IBN, Pervez Mir said, “There were two bottles given to Mushtaq, but he doesn’t drink. So he sent it to Woolmer. Mushtaq cannot be looked at as a suspect. Gifting of champagne doesn’t mean anything.”
According to reports in British media, a rare weedkiller was mixed with the champagne bottles, one o which was left untouched.
ARY TV reported that Ali and the Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Dr Nasim Ashraf declined to comment on it.
“As far as I know Woolmer was not a champagne drinker,” Mir added.

Mushtaq's story doesn't add up, why a muslim guy Abdul would gift sharab to Mushtaq? he is not very subtle about his religious belief. He seemed nervous and was stutering in interview.

Woolmer probe turns to final email

The investigation into the murder of Bob Woolmer has turned to his final email to the PCB. The Sunday Telegraph has reported that there is now a theory that the email, where Woolmer said he would stand down as coach, was faked by his killers.
Detectives are focussing on the language used. People close to Woolmer have said that it clearly wasn’t written by him and suggestions are that the author was someone whose first language wasn’t English.
Part of the email to Nasim Ashraf, the board chairman, is reported to have said: “I would like to praise my association with the Pakistan team but now I would like to announce my retirement after the World Cup, to live the rest of my life in Cape Town. I have no lust for the job and I will not like others to make personal remarks at me. Professionally, I am open to criticism, I will be ready to continue the job if the president asks me for it.”
Neil Manthorp, a respected South African cricket journalist who knew Woolmer well, told The Sunday Telegraph: “I have received hundreds of emails from him over the years and this is not his style - not the sort of words and phrases that he would use.”
The email is believed to have been sent at 6am on March 18, a few hours before Woolmer was found in his hotel room by a maid. Mark Shields, Jamaica’s deputy commissioner, has flown to Cape Town to meet Gill Woolmer, who is also reported to have reservations about the authenticity of the email.

** However, speculation continues in Jamaica that Woolmer may not have been murdered. The Sunday Gleaner is claming that a source in London has told them that Scotland Yard believe there is no evidence of murder and that Woolmer died of a heart attack.**

A piece of trash and another attempt by western media to taint Pakistan’s image.

Woolmer email puts heat on Pakistanis
By David King
May 14, 2007 01:00am

FORMER Australian Test captain Ian Chappell has backed claims that the “last” email of Bob Woolmer was not written by the murdered cricket coach.

Police are investigating whether Woolmer’s final email was sent by his killers, after it emerged the language used in the communique was unlikely to have been the work of a native English speaker.

“I can’t believe it was written by a man whose first language was English,” Chappell told London’s Sunday Telegraph newspaper.

Friends of Woolmer raised the alarm that the language used was categorically not that of the former England Test batsman, or someone who spoke English as a first language.

Part of the email, sent to the Pakistan Cricket Board, read: “I would like to praise my association with the Pakistan team but now I would like to announce my retirement after the World Cup, to live the rest of my life in Cape Town. I have no lust for the job and I will not like others to make personal remarks at me. Professionally, I am open to criticism, I will be ready to continue the job if the president asks me for it.”

According to The Sunday Telegraph, the Pakistani board refused to release a copy of the full email, which was allegedly sent at 6am on Sunday, March 18 - less than five hours before Woolmer’s body was found by a hotel maid. The Jamaican police are said to be “very interested” in the email.

Neil Manthorp, a South African Cricket journalist and broadcaster, who was a close friend of Woolmer’s said it was not his writing: “I have received hundreds of emails from him over the years and this is not his style - the sort of words and phrases that he would use.”

Mark Sheilds, the former Scotland Yard detective leading the investigation, flew to Cape Town last week to interview Woolmer’s widow, Gill.
She is said to be “deeply dismissive” of the suggestion her late husband wrote the email.

Friends of Woolmer believe the email may have been sent under duress in an attempt by the killers to cover their tracks.

**If the email was not sent by Woolmer, it will increase suspicions that one of the Pakistani camp was responsible for his murder, the newspaper reported. **
It will be seen as an attempt to suggest that there was no animosity from Woolmer towards the team over its shock exit from the tournament.

Detectives believe Woolmer, 58, was poisoned and strangled in his room on the 12th floor of the 17-storey Pegasus Hotel in New Kingston.

Re: WOOLMER’S MURDER/BODY RELEASED

I think some of us will have had potay and par potay by the time this bungled investigation is completed

Claims grow that Woolmer was not murdered
http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/woolmer/content/current/story/294182.html
A report in today’s London Times has backed claims at the weekend that a Home Office pathologist has concluded Bob Woolmer died of natural causes and was not murdered.
Reports from the post-mortem, photographs and other material have been examined by Dr Nat Carey, the pathologist who examined the bodies in the Soham murder case.
The original post-mortem, carried out in Jamaica, decided that strangulation was possible because a bone on Woolmer’s neck had been broken.
Police are reported to be waiting for the results of a toxicology report after traces of a herbicide were found in Woolmer’s body. The chemical is sometimes used on cricket pitches as a weedkiller, and one theory is that he might have accidentally ingested it. The report will show if the level of the toxin were suspiciously high or whether they could have built up over a period of time.
The Times noted that the herbicide can cause sickness and diarrhea, both of which Woolmer suffered on the night he died. The broken bone could have been the result of a fall as he collapsed in his hotel bathroom.
The report also claimed that the possibility that he was attacked by a disgruntled fan or player have been ruled out.
There were also criticisms of the handling of the investigation by the Jamaica police, with delays in retrieving and examining the CCTV, a failure to take swabs from Woolmer’s hands and body, and the fact that the body was embalmed within hours of the post mortem.
The Jamaica Gleaner](http://www.jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20070515/cleisure/cleisure1.html) published a hard-hitting editorial on Tuesday in which the local police were openly slammed. “The now-it-is-now-it-isn’t spectacle being played out in the international media over Woolmer’s death must be particularly upsetting to his family and makes Jamaica’s constabulary appear a bunch of incompetent boobs. It couldn’t hurt the investigation, we feel, to publish the pathology report so as to clear the air. There should also be some official statement why the scheduled coroner’s inquest appears to have been postponed indefinitely.”

Re: WOOLMER'S MURDER/BODY RELEASED

^ No its gonna die out to mute rants from Jamaica that it was murder and the rest of the world shaking their heads and saying that it wasn't.
At the end some one from the Jamaican govt. will probably own up to the wrong hypthesis from their columbo wanna be and cover his mistakes etc...

Re: WOOLMER’S MURDER/BODY RELEASED

**This gets more pathetic by the day. Talk about incompetence.

Doubts grow over pathologist’s findings**

While news regarding the ongoing investigation into the death of Bob Woolmer is hard to come by, there are increasing suggestions that the Jamaican police jumped the gun in launching a murder enquiry.
Today’s Sunday Times said that police in Jamaica have privately admitted that Dr Ere Seshaiah, the Kingston pathologist, was wrong to say that Woolmer had been strangled. But Seshaiah told the paper that he stood by his diagnosis that Woolmer was killed by “asphyxia as a result of manual strangulation”. Nevertheless, the future of the investigation now seems to centre on the results of toxicology tests.
But a senior Jamaican police officer told the newspaper that that it now looked likely that Woolmer died from a heart attack induced by sickness. “I would go for natural causes,” he said. “The scene was not disturbed. If someone was strangled you would expect some resistance or fight.”
** In another development, it was suggested that Mark Shields, the lead investigator, travelled to South Africa last week to inform Woolmer’s widow that her husband may not have been murdered.**

^ That was on the cards from the start. The stooge act of an investigation was telling the above story right after the first weeks of murder claims.
