Transcript of HMRC Investigators Heather Whittaker and Jim Samson interviewing Lynne Watson (HMRC), 9 October 2006 were Lynne told the investigators that she had never heard me express support for suicide bombers or sexually harass anybody despite the fact she sat behind me and could hear everything I did and said. At a later employment tribunal hearing, HMRC Solicitor, Ian Painter told the tribunal that the reason the department did not interview this witness earlier (I had previously been found guilty of expressing support for suicide bombers), is because the department was eager to secure a guilty verdict.
