Jamaican police have confirmed that Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer died of natural causes and was not murdered, as they stated earlier.
Mr Woolmer, 58, died after being found unconscious in his Kingston hotel room on 18 March, following his team's loss to Ireland in the cricket World Cup.
An initial pathologist's report concluded that he had been strangled.
Every member of the Pakistan team was fingerprinted before returning home, sparking anger among many in Pakistan.
Jamaican Police Commissioner Lucius Thomas told a news conference in Kingston that three expert opinions had concluded that the original pathologist report of death by manual asphyxiation was wrong.
Mr Thomas also said that toxicology tests had now been received and that they showed there was no substance to indicate poisoning.
However, I still have a question?
"Bob Woolmer had diabetes, he had blood pressure, an enlarged heart, he had respiratory problems. On top of it, the depression of losing and then he drank a bottle of champagne. They should have first ruled out natural causes before this whole drama about the murder," Imran Khan said.
Anybody notice anything strange here? We are told Woolmer died of "natural causes", and we are given some underlying health problem Woolmer had, and we are told a couple of things that he didn't die of, but we are never told what actually killed him. Usually, drinking a bottle of champagne doesn't kill you. If his diabetes were rampaging out of control and that killed him why not say so? Wouldn't that have been painfully obvious in a preliminary autopsy?
Readers are left with the impression that Woolmer died of spontaneous asphyxiation.
Conspiracy nuts are gonna have a field day with this one.
