IXF, R (On the Application Of) v Chief Constable of West Mercia Police [2023] EWHC 2793 (Admin)

byKeith Rix

“Don’t forget the reasons”

 

The case

On 5 September 2019, the Claimant was arrested by officers of the West Mercia Police, and kept in custody overnight. He was bailed the next morning. On 9 September 2019, the Claimant's mother made a complaint to the West Mercia Police ("WMP") about the treatment of her son by the police during that period. That complaint was "not upheld" by a Senior Complaints and Misconduct Manager in the Professional Standards Department of the WMP.
