No, I'm trying to say you need to actually remove the key to activate the steering lock.

I think they had better be careful stating a mechinacal fault to be the answer when the police have possession of the vehicle for tests !i If the police come to a differant conclusion then there could be charges or questions to be answered

try leaving the Keys in and wiggle the steering wheel from side to side...on a few cars that'll make it lock in one place..
