Pakistan Cricket head coach Bob Woolmer was murdered during the 2007 Cricket World Cup
Yep, Pakistan head coach Bob Woolmer was murdered and an arrest has been made by the Jamaican police.
Wow, makes you think what kind of tournament is going on at the 2007 Cricket World Cup eh? Chief of Geo TV Hamid Mir, speaking to Ndtv, stated the killer is not a Jamaican national and that police have confiscated his telephone. It was also reported that Woolmer was working on his autobiography at the time and it is reported some pages are missing.
Bob Woolmer, 48, was found unconscious by staff at the Pegasus Hotel in Kingston the day after Pakistan's shock defeat to Ireland in the 2007 Cricket World Cup. Woolmer was taken to hospital where he later died.
Police revealed that they were treating the former England batsman's death as ''suspicious.'' He had been found in his room with vomit and blood spattered around the walls.
Understandably, the entire country of Pakistan is saddened and worried after the murder news.
''Tragic, yes, worrying yes, because we have a member of our team, a national coach of Pakistan, who has been murdered and this is not something which can be taken lightly,'' Pakistan cricket team spokesman Pervez Mir said at their Ritz Carlton hotel base in Montego Bay.
''If a man dies of natural causes, that's life, that's nature,'' Mir added.
''But when somebody is murdered as we now know from the police this is very alarming and very worrying. It's a very, very scary situation for us, when you hear something like this and a member of our team has been targeted.''
''We don't know what's behind the murder. We have to get to the bottom of this. The loss we have suffered has to be investigated and the culprits have to be brought to justice.''
