Removing a Police Record

[Leptons]

Basically a couple of years ago I was a passenger in my mates car that got stopped. He was found to have a quantity of Coke on him and as a result we both got locked up. I was bailed and subsequently received a NFA.
Now due to a contact case for my daughter this has been found to be still on my record. Clearly been entered by some irresponsible muppet on a Friday afternoon.

It states:

"Leptons was arrested for possession with intent to supply. He was found in a car with leptonses friend and the driver was found to be in possession of a quantity of cocaine. The report does not state if he was the driver or passenger."

What the fk

That will always be on there.
It will however say you were NFA'd. It is not a conviction or a caution and so is not disclosable.

Non-conviction info is sometimes disclosed, for example in relation to people seeking jobs that involve contact with children. You might (I say might) have an article 8 ECHR case for removal of the info, but it would not be a slam dunker.

PS: The info has been disclosed already, I infer, in the context of family proceedings. It would have been hard to resist this, given the context. Unfair? I think so, but the law probably doesn't.

[Mk3Spitfire]

Really? I thought CRB checks only showed convictions and cautions. My apologies then.
I can't see them removing it under HR?
It's bad though, and i don't agree with situations like this remaining on your record.

Although, it does beg the question, did you REALLY know nothing about the drugs being in the car? Not saying you were involved, but if he had enough coke/evidence to suggest supply, surely you had some idea if the kind of people you were associating with?!

[Leptons]

I see, thanks. It wouldn't sound so bad if it was a little more detailed. For it to not even differentiate between me and the driver is bang out of order IMO.

I'm not really sure that's relevant. He had them stuffed down his pants and I didn't.

Moral of the story. Choose your friends more carefully.

Get over yourself. Let's say you accept a lift off a lad you haven't seen since school and you get pulled. He's got a load of Coke stuffed down his pants. You'd be in the same position.

And that sums it up - the standard police response. He still doesn't believe you. Guilty until proven innocent.

Oh calm down princess.
"Still doesn't", what, you mean after one post?
It was a question, not an allegation. And maybe me suspicions are down to experience.
Stop crying sweetheart, it'll be ok.

[carinaman]

Because allegations can never be false or malicious can they?

My point? A police officer divulging dodgy, unproven allegations while other police officers fail to deal with leads on Ian Watkins. At least they got him when they did him for drugs eh? A bit like the DPG three getting done for Extreme Pornography due to the mud slinging at Andrew MITCHELL MP.

I was involved with someone that did dope. That must by association mean that I am a also wrong 'un. It's no wonder I have two speeding convictions under my belt then is it?

[carinaman]

Not revising your Professional Standards policy this weekend then?

[Mk3Spitfire]

Which is what?

[Mk3Spitfire]

How does going on about Watkins or Mitchell have anything to do with this scenario???
No "false allegations" were made, a lawful arrest based on the facts which subsequently resulted in NFA? If there was that much coke in the car, of course they'll arrest all occupants.
You are completely wild with your attempts to link every police matter with a negative one that has been in the press. It just doesn't fit.

What's happened to PH? We used to have some really good BIB here, Like Dibble, et al. But recently we've been getting idiots who seem to go out of their way to look like tts.

Try taking a bashing from the likes of c-man on a daily basis. Unwarranted and uneducated bashings.
Reasonable/sensible questions and posts will be met with reasonable/sensible responses. He and some others are apparently incapable of balanced debates or seeing both sides of the story.

I still can't work out why everyone is so angry. It's only the internet.

;-) There is that! I wonder if we would all be so argumentative if we were in a room together?

That has nothing to do with Lepton's query and begged no question about him knowing about the coke. Even if he did, it doesn't change the OP's question actually.
