you're unlucky enough to find yourself at the local police station, you
have the right: To know exactly why you have been arrested To see the written codes governing your rights and how you are treated To speak to the custody officer (the officer who looks after your welfare) To have someone notified of your arrest (but not to necessarily make the phone call yourself so don't start acting like Eddie Murphy in 48 Hours!) To consult with a solicitor privately Try to remember these key points: 1. Don't
panic until you've seen a solicitor Simple. Just
like the movies, you do have the right to remain silent. You should request a solicitor to visit you in the police station as soon as humanly possible and ask for them to be present when you are interviewed. Don't let them fob you off. It's one of your rights and it's free. The police can only keep you banged up for a limited period of time - normally a maximum of 24 hours or 12 hours longer for a serious arrestable offence. So try to remain calm. Make sure you know why you've been arrested, and that the correct time of your arrest is on the custody record. The
police can perform an 'intimate body search' on you if an officer (at
least the rank of Superintendent) has reason to believe that you have
concealed Class A drugs - such as heroin and cocaine, but not cannabis
on you and that you are in possession of the drugs either with intent
to deal or with a view to committing a customs offence. So be sure to
mention that before they get the rubber gloves out! |
