Legal News & Articles

An individual released under investigation is regarded as being of the same status as a person released on bail, but without the requirement for them to return to the station on a specified date. Whilst most officers are now more than familiar with this form of release, procedurally, the concept still generates a significant number of queries for PNLD, namely because many aspects relating to the release are not directly provided for within the legislation. PNLD Legal Adviser, Ruth Hartley, highlights some queries of interest received by PNLD, below.
