#1 Dawood Ibrahim's hand in Woolmer's suspected murder

Lucknow, March 22: Giving a new turn to Bob Woolmer's death under mysterious circumstances, underworld don Babloo Srivastava has said that D-company head Dawood Ibrahim might have been involved in the suspected murder of Pakistan cricket coach, Sahara Samay sources said.

Talking to Sahara Samay, he said that Dawood is the biggest fixer of international matches. He further said that Dawood might have put on stake huge sum of money ranging between Rs 400 to 500 crore.

The channel's correspondent told from Lucknow that even earlier Babloo had told that all unimportant matches of the world have been fixed.

Babloo also told that this was the biggest reason why Pakistani players played under immense pressure and lost to minnows Ireland.

It is also speculated that Woolmer's book was in the last stage and match-fixers might have got some air that the Pakistani coach may reveal more about the betting blot in the game after Pakistan's shameful defeat at the hands of Ireland.
