Bob Woolmer's Death : The Investigation & Speculations Continue
Its being reported now that the Pakistani players are now being questioned too in association with the investigation into Bob's death. Cricinfo's The Surfer has a media round up of all the speculation that has arisen since the inconclusive findings of the autopsy yesterday, but you'd be well advised to hear this audio link from the BBC. Its a mini interview of Bob's wife, Gill, in which she refutes speculation that her husband may have taken his own life following Pakistan's exit from the World Cup, in addition to slamming some of the other media speculation surrounding the reason's of Woolmer's death.
I hope the media show some respect for the family's sentiments and not make a complete drama out of this, certain people have been linking all sorts of stuff to his death. GEO news yesterday I saw did an extended report full of rubbish about how his forthcoming book in which there were revelations about match fixing could have been a cause for him to be murdered. Other hyperbole creators have also been spreading rumors about how Islamic groups, or tableeghi jamaats as they're called, may have part. All hogwash of the highest order. These people should realise how some of this speculation will make his grieving family feel. Just leave this matter alone I say, and let the investigation take its course.
