I think it could be a little bit of both. The thing is, if information could be released, then I would say, “Yes, it can be released” and I will ask them to do that. I will check and see if they can actually do that or if they cannot.
The question is not interference. It's what happens with it. If I feel that the question is forcing me to do something that I don't want to do, to me that's interference. Asking me to do something in the investigation is interference. Asking me to arrest somebody, not arrest somebody, sanction somebody or not sanction somebody is interference. Asking questions is not interference.
