Karachi: The Pakistan Cricket Board on Wednesday said it had got no request to send any players or officials to testify at the long-awaited inquest opened into Bob Woolmer’s death during the cricket World Cup in the West Indies.
“We see the inquest as a routine matter of the Jamaican police. If their coroner sends us a request to send players or officials to testify we will sit down and decide than,” said PCB Chief Operating officer Shafqat Naghmi.
“But we personally don’t want to put our players or officials under anymore stress in this issue as they have already been through a lot during the World Cup,” he said.
“We would not encourage anyone to go there. But we will take a policy decision when we get any request and according to the situation prevailing in the inquest,” he said. — PTI
