"Prior to Kassab's arrest, did he ever offer you any money to turn a blind eye to his activities?" "Never."

"Your choice." "Mr Fowler, how would you react if I told you that we had compelling evidence that large-scale drug distribution took place in the Cross during the time that you were chief of detectives there?" "Well, I'd be surprised if you hadn't found that." "I knew about it myself." "But knowing about it and making arrests, that's two different things." "So you would deny that drug dealing thrived as a result of your knowing connivance?" "That suggestion's a slander." "And you've never been involved in any way with the collection or distribution of corrupt monies paid by drug dealers?" "I have not." "Corruption and you were complete strangers, in other words?" "That's correct." "You haven't had any relationship with your police colleagues where they might pass money on to you for any purpose?" "I have not." "Detective Scullion, for example..." "has there ever been an occasion where he's paid you a substantial sum of money?" "No, there has not." "Detective Sergeant Trevor Haken..." "the same again?" "Yeah, I've already told you, the answer's no." "And your injury..." "a fall outside the lift at work... that must have come as quite a shock." "Well, yes, obviously."

"Well, you may say that you object to answering and if you choose to do that, the answers you give cannot be used against you unless, of course, your evidence is false or misleading." "Would such a choice help to put you at ease?" "Yes." "Because I no sleep." "I'm crook." "I've got bad headache."
