Arrested Collins clear of drugs: report

Written By Unknown on Senin, 25 Maret 2013 | 15.02

FORMER All Blacks hardman Jerry Collins says he was not on any illegal drugs when arrested for carrying a knife in Japan.

Collins is still in custody in Hamamatsu, about 250km southwest of Tokyo, after his arrest by up to 20 police officers in an upmarket department store about 10 days ago.

The 32-year-old told Campbell Live that he was carrying a knife because he feared for his safety.

Collins was not allowed to be filmed, but host John Campbell said Collins told him during a 15 minute visit that he was fine and being treated well.

He had got into a misunderstanding with a gang to a point where he feared for his life and threats to his life.

Collins said he was being followed the day he was arrested and feared for his life, and decided to enter the department store where he was arrested because he wouldn't be attacked with witnesses about.

Campbell said Collins told him he was relieved to be arrested.

An attendant at the department store told Campbell Live that Collins tried to enter a space without saying anything, and when security staff arrived, he showed them two knives, after which he was arrested.

Staff noted he was sweating profusely and thought he may have been on drugs, but Campbell said Collins told him he had been tested for illegal drugs and all the tests came back negative.

The gang involved was believed to be one largely of foreign workers, mostly expat Brazilians, who had disliked foreign rugby players from a time pre-dating Collins' 2011 arrival in Japan, Campbell Live reported.

Meanwhile, Collins' New Zealand lawyer Tim Castle has departed New Zealand, taking with him a number of support documents.

Mr Castle told One News he hoped to meet Collins on Tuesday and to meet with prosecution and police representatives.
