The latest reports say that Pakistan team members and officials have given routine DNA swabs so police can discount them from the investigation. Police now say Woolmer was strangled, and possibly had been attacked by more than person and possibly knew his attacker/attackers. Two pages from a warts-and-all book he was writing reportedly were missing. Woolmer's death came on the morning following Pakistan's defeat at the hands of international minnows Ireland in the Cricket World Cup now being played in the West Indies. 565117@blogcritics.org Sat, 24 Mar 2007 07:34:09 EDT
