Liberal operative denies he invented pink paper record of agreement with fugitive developer, Icac hears

Jeremy Greenwood tells inquiry note contained agreement with Jean Nassif as counsel assisting says ‘threads of your story pull apart very quickly’

A Liberal operative has denied making up a “pink” or “fuchsia”-coloured piece of paper which he says was the record of an agreement with a property developer worth up to $5m, a corruption inquiry has heard.

Jeremy Greenwood told the Independent Commission Against Corruption (Icac) on Wednesday that the note, which he did not mention in a preliminary interview with the watchdog, was not a “recent invention”.
