Taped phone call told of 'porn file': ICAC A Labor election candidate dumped amid corruption claims wanted to "go for" a rival who had been caught out watching porn, a secretly taped phone call reveals. Jeffrey Salvestro-Martin was this week disendorsed as the ALP's candidate for John Howard's former Sydney seat of Bennelong as the ICAC began probing whether he and other members of Ryde council received undisclosed political donations in the form of advertising before the September 2012 local government elections. The inquiry earlier heard claims that leaks and threats were used against a senior council manager, John Neish, by former mayor Ivan Petch and other councillors who were trying to delay a development proposal. A phone tap played before the inquiry on Thursday revealed Mr Salvestro-Martin told Mr Petch he was "going for" Mr Neish because he believed the general manager had "offended my reputation in every respect." Mr Petch had called Mr Salvestro-Martin after obtaining a log of pornographic sites accessed by Mr Neish using a council-owned computer. "I got a CD, ah, mysteriously delivered to me today," Mr Petch can be heard telling Mr Salvestro-Martin in the January call. (It's) Neish's porn file. An incredulous Mr Salvestro-Martin could be heard telling his friend that if the CD was genuine it should be sent to ICAC. "Ivan, this guy's going for a big swim seriously," he said. I'm at the point now where there's no holds barred any more. Anyway, I'm going for the guy. Testifying before the commission on Thursday, Mr Salvestro-Martin denied he was trying to punish Mr Neish. "You were attempting to convey to Councillor Petch (that), your reputation having been damaged, you thought that now it would be appropriate to do something to damage Mr Neish's reputation?" counsel assisting the commission Jason Downing asked. No, no. My principal concern was if this was genuine that the ICAC needed to be advised," Mr Salvestro-Martin responded. The inquiry continues before Assistant Commissioner Theresa Hamilton.
