The meal contained curry made with peanut powder instead of almond powder, according to the report, which also stated that the waiter who took Wilson’s order, as well as the chef making the food, were illegally employed at the restaurant.
Wright said, “There is no doubt at all that the curry he ate, the lid of which bore the legend ‘no nuts,’ contained peanuts and that the peanuts caused his death by way of an allergic reaction to eating them.”
“An analysis of the curry recovered from the plate in the kitchen of Paul Wilson’s home also demonstrated that peanut had killed him. Less than three grams of the sauce from the curry would have been sufficient to give rise to the level of peanut in the stomach.”
