One of the men accused of the brutal daylight killing of British soldier Lee Rigby told police he took little joy in slaying . Michael Adebolajo 's interview with police was played to jurors at the Old Bailey criminal court in London on Wednesday , day four of the trial in which he and co-defendant Michael Adebowale have pleaded not guilty to the murder of Rigby in Woolwich on May 22 . In the interview , Adebolajo identified himself as Mujahideen Abu Hamza and began a long and uninterrupted statement by praising Allah and expressing his surprise and gratitude for the way he had been treated by police and medical staff , given what he described as `` the serious nature of events . '' `` There still remain some great qualities in this nation , '' the British-born Adebolajo told police before saying he was ashamed to be called British . `` That title -- British -- is associated with the pillaging and rape of innocent people . This disgusts me to the core . '' He went on to say that he did not enjoy watching horror movies or seeing blood spilled . `` It brings me little joy to approach anybody and slay them . Can you believe me ? '' The jury has seen graphic mobile phone and CCTV footage of Adebolajo brandishing a machete and knife with his hands covered in blood after the attack on Rigby . Adebolajo told police he would answer only questions he believed would help the British people . `` I am not here to satisfy your supervisor , '' he said . `` I 'm only here to prevent such an incident as happened on Wednesday , the 22nd of May , from ever happening again . '' He did answer one direct question from police in the interview , and it concerned what he did to Rigby . `` Lee Rigby was killed on the 22nd of May , '' he said . `` He was struck in the neck with a sharp implement and it was sawn until his head , you know , became almost detached , and may Allah forgive me of I acted in a way that is displeasing to him . '' Pathologist Simon Poole told the court Wednesday that drummer Rigby suffered `` numerous and very deep wounds '' to the neck and that the cause of death was `` multiple incised wounds . '' During Adebolajo 's two-hour interview with police , he also criticized British rulers whom he described as `` wicked and black-hearted humans '' from privileged schools like Eton , who wore expensive suits and drove expensive cars . He singled out Prime Minister David Cameron ; brothers David and Ed Milliband , the political veterans ; and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg . He expressed particular disappointment with Cameron , who he said is trying to emulate a man he described as `` using the magic of the tongue to dodge questions . He goes by the name of Tony Blair . Nobody realizes the wickedness and corruption of this man . '' Earlier in the day , the court heard the statement of forensic psychiatrist Tim McKinley , who interviewed Adebolajo three times while he was being treated in a hospital after being shot by police shortly after the attack on Rigby . The psychiatrist described the defendant as polite and said he showed no signs of mental disorder , remorse or regret . Adebolajo told him he posed no threat to civilians , police or medical staff but would be a continued threat to the British military .
