< Back Police Station Reps - Canterbury Police Station Old Dover Rd, Canterbury CT1 3JQ Canterbury Police Station 01622 690690 We Cover Canterbury Police Station Why You Need A Solicitor If You Are Considering A No Comment Interview In England, you have the right to remain silent when being interviewed by the police. This is often referred to as a "no comment" interview. This right is protected by the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 (PACE). There are a number of reasons why you might answer no comment to police questions in a police interview in England. Some of these reasons include: You are innocent and do not want to say anything that could incriminate yourself. You do not remember the events in question. You are confused about the questions being asked. You are concerned about the consequences of answering questions. You want to speak to a solicitor before answering any questions. During an interview, you have the right to say "no comment" in response to any or all questions posed by the police. This can be a protection against self-incrimination, and it can also be used if legal advice has not been available prior to the interview. However, it is important to understand that the right to remain silent comes with potential implications. In court, the jury can be allowed to draw adverse inferences from your silence, as outlined in the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. This means that if you choose to say "no comment" to all questions in a police interview, and later on you introduce a new piece of evidence in court that you could have mentioned during the interview, the court is allowed to consider why you didn't mention it earlier. This doesn't mean that you will automatically be found guilty if you choose to remain silent, but it can potentially influence how your evidence is perceived. If you're arrested and brought in for questioning, it's essential to get legal advice before deciding on a "no comment" interview. A solicitor can help you understand the potential implications of remaining silent versus answering questions.

< Back Police Station Reps - Tonbridge Police Station 1 Pembury Rd, Tonbridge TN9 2HS Tonbridge Police Station 01622 690690 We Cover Tonbridge Police Station What is the difference between a prepared statement, a no comment interview and answering all police questions in legal terms in a police interview as a suspect in england? In the legal context of a police interview in England, here are the differences between using a prepared statement, a 'no comment' interview, and answering all police questions: Prepared Statement: A prepared statement is typically written in advance of a police interview, often with the help of a legal advisor. It allows the suspect to lay out their version of events without interruption and to avoid potential confusion or misinterpretation. By using a prepared statement, the suspect can carefully control what information is provided and ensure that it is presented in the most advantageous manner. However, following the prepared statement, the police will usually still ask further questions, and a suspect will need to decide how to respond to these. 'No Comment' Interview: This is when a suspect responds to all, or almost all, questions with 'no comment' or similar. This right is protected under the right to silence, where a suspect is not compelled to answer police questions. However, under Section 34 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 in England, if a suspect fails to mention any fact which he later relies upon in his defence and which in the circumstances at the time he could reasonably have been expected to mention, it may harm their defence. This essentially means that staying silent during a police interview might be held against the suspect at trial if they later bring up facts they did not mention during the interview. Answering All Police Questions: This strategy is exactly as it sounds; a suspect provides answers to all the questions asked by the police. This approach can demonstrate cooperation and may help to resolve any misunderstandings quickly. However, it can also potentially expose the suspect to risk if they mistakenly incriminate themselves or provide information that can be used against them later. It's important for a suspect to understand their rights and potential legal strategies before deciding to answer all questions, ideally with the assistance of a solicitor. In all these scenarios, it is strongly recommended that a suspect seek legal advice before participating in a police interview in England. The exact circumstances of the case, the evidence available, and the potential charges involved all influence which approach is most advisable.

Finding out information about an individual who has been arrested and is being held in custody at a police station in England can be complicated, mainly due to privacy and confidentiality regulations. As a rule, the police usually do not disclose information about a person in custody to anyone not directly involved, such as a lawyer, social worker, or immediate family, unless they have the consent of the individual in custody. There are exceptions for certain scenarios, such as safeguarding issues, or if there is a legitimate concern for the individual's wellbeing. Here are a few ways you may be able to get information: Direct Contact from the Individual: If you're a close friend or family member, the person arrested is usually given an opportunity to make a phone call. They may choose to contact you and inform you of their situation. Legal Representative: If you're in contact with the person's solicitor or legal representative, they may be able to share some information about the individual's situation, provided they have the necessary permissions. Please note without that permission they cannot share anything. Custody Visitor Scheme: This is a scheme where volunteers can visit police stations to check on the welfare of detainees. However, they can't disclose information about individual detainees to the public. Contact the Police: In certain circumstances, and if you have a legitimate reason, you may contact the local police directly for information. They will decide what information can be disclosed based on various factors, including the person's rights, the impact on any ongoing investigations, and the reason for your enquiry. The default position is however other than confirming that they may be there they will disclose nothing further.
