"Mr Takeda has never discussed such things with my father, never discussed anything like that with anybody that I know"

He wouldn't have had to discuss it.

Just making the bribery payment alone would be plenty enough of a "discussion."

That is, if he's guilty, of course.

I for one believe the man. It's pure coincidence that after a 2.8 million Singapore dollars payment was made by the Tokyo Games' bid committee to Singaporean consultancy firm Black Tidings in 2013, that almost magically Tokyo was handed the win. Pure coincidence.
