I have read somewhere that it is done by Dawood Ibrahim for Bookies. Javed Miandad's role is not confirmed. He was the coach for the Pakistan's team before and replaced by Woolmer. Dawood and Javed are relatives. Wait for the final outcome.

Woolmer has been murdered by these people who seek to control the game," he said. One authoritative source within the game has told Sportsmail that a heart attack has been ruled out and that the cause of death was choking.
Woolmer died after being found unconscious on Sunday and the main focus of the police investigation is on whether he was strangled. Blood marks were found on his neck.
The source added: "This is far from being a straightforward matter." A 10-man forensic team spent Wednesday at Kingston's Pegasus Hotel. They are set to examine mobile telephone numbers used by people connected with the squad and some SIM cards will be seized.
Local toxicologists were carrying out further tests on Woolmer's body. Sarfraz, a maverick who has long campaigned against bookmakers' involvement in Pakistani cricket, made a series of astonishing claims to Sportsmail and claimed match-fixing was still rife.
"It is still going on. I believe Woolmer found out about what went on in the West Indies and was about to reveal all."
Sarfraz said some players agreed to lose against the West Indies, thinking they would easily beat Ireland and Zimbabwe.
He added: "When it all started going wrong against Ireland you could see the despair on their faces — it was as if they had just lost their parents. It was the realisation of what they had just done.
"Woolmer is not the first person in cricket to be fooled by these people. Hansie Cronje [the former South Africa captain who was banned for life after being convicted of match-fixing] died in a plane crash that has never been properly explained.
"A bookie called Hanif Cadbury, who had links to him was killed in Johannesburg four years ago. Woolmer was the coach when Cronje was up to no good and must have had an inkling of what went on then. Now the same thing has happened with Pakistan."
Woolmer had started work on a sequel to his autobiography at the time of his death, but it is not believed that there was any reference in it to match-fixing either in South African or Pakistani cricket.
Sarfraz went as far as to name five players he believed were involved in betting, but they cannot be named for legal reasons.
In recent years, Pakistan teams are assumed to have cleaned up their act and many players have followed the example of captain Inzamam-ul-Haq and become strict adherents to Islam.
Woolmer's widow, Gill, said she was "totally shocked" to learn that her husband's death was suspicious, but added: "I don't see any conspiracy in his death.
"He had nothing to do with the match-fixing controversy and any such people being involved is highly unlikely. We never got any threats as far as I know."

I don't think this will be answered as fact ever by Cops.
But then, I guess, lot of big hands are involved not just in this game but in Bangladesh V India match as well. Ganguly should know the answer for sure.
