Woolmer death: pathologist from Andhra for more tests, Pak team fingerprinted

Meanwhile, police have questioned the Pakistan team, taken fingerprints and even handed them questionnaires before they left Kingston for Montego Bay from where they are to fly for home on Saturday via London. Woolmer’s body will be taken on the same flight.

A second pathologist has in the meantime been asked to give opinion on the findings of the first autopsy report.

The Jamaica Gleaner, quoting unnamed police sources, today reported that “fresh evidence has surfaced, suggesting that Woolmer was strangled in his room at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel between Saturday night and Sunday morning… a bone in the neck, near the glands, was broken and this suggests that somebody might have put some pressure on it.”

Radio Jamaica reporter Rohan Powell also claimed that Woolmer may have been strangled. “I made contact with the ongoing investigation. Police will tell the public and journalists that the cause of death was strangulation. I have sources in Jamaican Police and I stick by my sources,” he said.
