Catching Criminals
It is the job of the police to capture those they believe to have committed crime.
It is not the job of the police to decide...
Whether you have committed a crime.
Whether you should appear in court
What punishment, if any, you should receive.
A police officer can stop and question you of you are suspected of committing a crime
Once you have given the police your name and address, it is up to them to decide whether they want to ask you more questions
The police can detain you for up to 24 hours at the police station.
They then decide either to arrest or release you.
