Did he really die of asphyxia after his team Pakistan lost to Ireland in the World Cup? He also appeared to have been suffering from diarrhoea and toxic substances like cypermethrin were found in his stomach. Although the doctors and pathologists declared that Woolmer died a natural death, nothing was able to explain the cut found on his nose and the broken bone in his neck. Amid all speculation of match-fixing, the case was brought to rest.

After a continued rage over the incident, Dr. Ere Seshiah, the pathologist who conducted the autopsy, revealed a few photographs from a fellow doctor’s cellphones which indicated the involvement of a third party. But Deputy Commissioner of Police Mr. Shields had shut the case stating – “It is deeply puzzling that if there was ‘something between the hands of the assailant and the neck of the victim’, it has not been detected by an experienced pathologist”.
