Expert: poison found in Woolmer's body November 10, 2007 Edition 1 Jamaican expert Fitzmore Coates testified at the inquest in Kingston, Jamaica, into the death of ex-Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer (58) that tests showed traces of the potentially deadly pesticide cypermethrin. Coates, the acting chief forensic officer at the Government Forensic Science Laboratory, said he was asked to do a toxicology analysis of Woolmer's stomach contents and found 3.4mg/ml of the pesticide. "The final calculation of cypermethrin in the stomach content ... could cause vomiting, diarrhoea, nausea and death," he said. Last month, government pathologist Dr Ere Sheshiah, who performed the post-mortem, testified that the cause of death was "asphyxia, associated with cypermethrin poisoning". Coates testified that he found cypermethrin in samples of blood and urine taken from Woolmer. He said the substance was also seen in a straw-coloured liquid taken from his room at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel. John Slaughter, a British forensic expert, testified that he found no pesticide in samples tested on May 4. Woolmer was found unconscious on March 18. - Sapa-AFP [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
