Woolwich suspect walked out of police interview
In his third interview with police, Adebolajo asked one of the officers to explain why he was questioning him.
"Relate it back to why you feel this will benefit Lee Rigby's family and ensure the safety of the British people," he said, sitting covered in a blue blanket with a copy of the Koran in front of him.
The officer replied: "Lee Rigby was a soldier who was killed on Wednesday 22nd, as you know.
"The family of Lee Rigby are obviously very upset about it, and I'm trying to ask you as part of an investigation."
Moments later he left the interview room, after the officer asked him to use "plain and simple" language.

Lawson 'smoked cannabis to make situation tolerable'
Nigella Lawson has admitted in court she smoked cannabis in the last year of her marriage to art dealer Charles Saatchi.
"I have to be honest, I have smoked the odd joint," she said. "I found it made an intolerable situation tolerable".
Ms Lawson continued: "It's a false friend and not a good idea. I found the answer was in changing the situation and trying to create a tolerable situation for me and my family.
"I have to say, since freeing myself from a brilliant but brutal man, I'm now totally cannabis, cocaine, any drug-free."

Lee Rigby 'suffered numerous and very deep wounds'
A pathologist has told the Lee Rigby murder trial that the soldier suffered "numerous and very deep" wounds to his neck and that it would have taken "severe force" to inflict some of them.
There were stab wounds nearly six inches (14.4cm) deep in his chest, some of which had damaged his lung and breastbone, and there were also injuries to his arms, pathologist Simon Poole told the court.
Dr Poole found that the cause of death was "multiple incised wounds".
He said one of the wounds to the soldier's arms could have been defensive, or could have been inflicted as he lay unconscious.

Mel Greig and Southern Cross Austereo, which runs 2Day FM, released a joint statement saying they have "amicably resolved all aspects of their dispute arising from the royal hoax call".
