Garda rejects claims he prepared explosives found in bogus arms finds
Completing a record 23 days of evidence at the Morris Tribunal, he insisted that he had never been interested in promotion or even applied for a written sergeant's examination.

"It was mostly subversive work that I was involved in and the post of sergeant would have involved a lot of mundane administrative duties and I was not that keen on office work, he said.
