PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) - Jamaican police could face legal action for declaring Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer's death a homicide, the team's World Cup spokesman said Friday, claiming the high-profile case unfairly cast suspicion on the country's players.
"The name of Pakistan has been maligned and the names of Pakistani cricketers have been maligned because everybody became a suspect," spokesman Pervez Jamil Mir told The Associated Press in a telephone interview from Pakistan.
Last month, a Jamaican newspaper reported that Scotland Yard investigators had concluded that Woolmer died of natural causes after his team's upset by Ireland on March 17 in the World Cup and was not strangled as local police had said.
