After confirming that the device he'd heard of was indeed a polygraph, he was offered an opportunity to be examined. Detainee then related that he would take the polygraph exam, but that we should expect some inconsistencies in the results, because some days he was not in a good mood, and that he would sometimes lie on those days. Detainee also stated that the translations were probably sometimes wrong as well, which would cause us to think he was lying about things but he felt sure he could explain them.
• When asked to relate some things he had lied to interviewers about previously, detainee refused and stated that we would have to tell him things we didn't believe, and that he would then tell if the example was a lie or not. At this point, the interview was terminated.
Post - interview, the translator related that in his opinion, Detainee spoke like an educated person, as opposed to the
uneducated person he claimed to be.
