Jamaican poilce to reveal Woolmer not murdered at all: Reports
London, June 2 (UNI) After months of investigation and umpteen conspiracy theories, the Bob Woolmer death whodunit is nearing its epilogue with the Jamaican police, in humiliating volte-face, all set to declare that the late Pakistan coach was not murdered at all, British media reported.
According to Daily Mail, a senior Scotland Yard murder squad detective has revealed that the investigators now believe that Woolmer died of heart failure brought on by chronic ill-health and possibly diabetes. The conclusion will be revealed at a press conference in Kingston next week.
Gill Woolmer, the widow of the former England player, who lives in South Africa, is understood to have been briefed by Mark Shields, the former Scotland Yard detective who is second in command of the Jamaican police force, another newspaper 'The Daily Telegraph' reported.
The 58-year-old coach was found dead in his hotel room on March 18, a day after Pakistan's ouster from the World Cup due a sensational loss to debutant Ireland.
The first autopsy report was initially said to be ''inconclusive'' but later claimed that Woolmer died of ''asphyxiation due to manual strangulation'' and Jamaica police deputy chief Mark Shields, ''100 per cent certain'' that the coach was murdered, announced a full-scale inquiry into the matter.
The event overshadowed the World Cup and triggered conspiracy theories and no one from match-fixing mafia to even Muslim fundamentalists were spared from suspicion.
There were also extraordinary claims that he was killed with an ancient form of poison called aconite or was fed snake venom by Yardies.
