March 23, 2007: The sad but true conclusion from the
pathologist report in Jamaica is that Bob Woolmer died of
asphyxia as a result of manual strangulation. Reports also
indicate that the Pakistan team members were questioned and
finger printed.
The full statement from Lucius Thomas, the commissioner of
police for the Jamaica Constabulary Force, regarding the
investigation into Bob Woolmer's murder.
"Consistent with our approach from the time Pakistani
cricket coach, Mr Robert Woolmer was found in his hotel room
on Sunday, March 18, the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF)
has updated the media on all developments concerning our
investigations of this case. The Jamaican police are in a
position to inform that it is now in possession of the
official post-mortem report from the government pathologist
who conducted the autopsy on the late Mr Woolmer.
The pathologist report is now available and states that Mr
Woolmer's death was due to asphyxia as a result of manual
strangulation. In these circumstances, the matter of Mr
Robert Woolmer's death is now being treated by the Jamaica
Police as a case of murder. Steps are being taken to
conclude these investigations, which include collecting
statements from all persons who in the opinion of the police
can be of assistance to these investigations.
In due course further announcements will be made as to the
progress of our investigations of Mr Woolmer's murder. The
JCF is making an appeal to anyone who may have information
that would help us to identify Bob Woolmer's killer or
killers to come forward in order that his wife, Gill, and
his family can begin the process of healing.
It is our belief that those associated with or having access
to Mr Woolmer may have vital information that would assist
this inquiry. We appeal to these individuals to come forward
now to assist us with our investigation. Our condolences go
out to Gill, Bob's widow, and their sons, friends and
members of the Pakistan team."
