Full transcript
Mr Haddad, I'm Detective Ryan from NSW Police, and we're investigating the suspicious fire at your storage yard on Wentworthville Road last Thursday night.
يا ضابط، لم أكن هناك عندما بدأ الحريق. تلقيت اتصالاً من الجار في منتصف الليل وأسرعت إلى هناك فوراً.
Fire and Rescue NSW recorded the emergency call at eleven thirty pm. Can you walk me through what time you actually left the premises that night?
غادرت المكان في حوالي الساعة السابعة مساءً بعد أن أغلقت البوابة والقفل الرئيسي، ولم يكن هناك أحد آخر بالداخل.
Before the fire, were you experiencing any financial difficulties with the business, or any pending insurance claims you hadn't yet mentioned to anyone?
لا، الأعمال كانت تسير بشكل جيد، ولم يكن لدي أي مطالبة تأمين معلقة قبل هذا الحريق.
Who else besides yourself currently has keys or regular access to the shed and the storage yard?
يوجد لديّ اثنان من الموظفين لديهما مفاتيح، لكن أحدهما استقال قبل أسبوعين بعد خلاف حول الراتب.
You mentioned an employee who resigned after a pay dispute two weeks ago. Did he express any anger or make threats before he left?
كان منزعجاً جداً من الموقف، لكنه لم يهددني أبداً ولم يقل أي شيء يثير القلق قبل مغادرته.
Our forensic officers will examine the site, and an investigator will contact you directly once the report is finished. Please don't return there until it's cleared.
أتفهم ذلك تماماً، وسأتعاون مع التحقيق بالكامل. هل يجب أن أحضر محامياً قبل أي مقابلة أخرى؟
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went. Your first full dialogue is marked free.
