LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board has asked the assistant manager of the national team to return to Jamaica and remain in Kingston until the body of Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer is sent to his hometown of Cape Town.
Asad Mustafa had arrived in London on his way home from Jamaica but has been told to go back.
"We need to have a responsible board official in Kingston while the investigations continue into Woolmer's death and until his body is released by the authorities to be sent to Cape Town," a senior board official told Reuters on Sunday.
Woolmer was found unconscious in his hotel room on March 18 the day after his team was eliminated from the World Cup following a shock defeat by Ireland. He was pronounced dead in hospital later that day. Jamaican police are treating the death as murder.
While the Pakistan squad left the Caribbean last week, Mustafa and the team's South African fitness trainer Murray Stevenson stayed back in Jamaica to assist the police with their investigation.
