- Early Police Intervention
- Interview Avoided
- No Charge
A business owner of previous good character was arrested on suspicion of handling stolen goods, placing both their personal reputation and business interests at risk.
Before any police interview took place, MC Solicitors intervened directly, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence and making representations as to why the investigation should not progress towards prosecution.
The police accepted the defence position and took No Further Action (NFA), without the client being interviewed.
A particularly successful example of early police station intervention, resolving a criminal allegation before the formal interview stage.
Every criminal case depends upon its individual facts. Previous case outcomes do not guarantee the outcome of another case.
