Peter Nygard, the former fashion mogul accused of sexual assault, testified in his own defense during his trial. He stated that he wanted to cooperate with the police during his interview and denied all allegations against him.
TORONTO — Peter Nygard testified Tuesday that he wanted to co-operate with police during his 11-hour interview with a Toronto detective in 2021 because he had"nothing to hide."
"I went in there to co-operate with them fully. I had nothing to hide," Nygard said of the October 2021 interview during which he was questioned about allegations made against him. Multiple complainants in the trial have alleged they were taken to Nygard's Toronto headquarters under pretences ranging from tours to job interviews, with encounters ending in a top-floor bedroom suite where they allege they were sexually assaulted.
Nygard told Crown attorney Neville Golwalla on Tuesday that the Toronto police detective treated him respectfully and that he felt comfortable during the interview, which he said was more like a"conversation."
