Assistant commissioner declines to give publication date and defends right to make arrests without evidence
Scotland Yard has said it will make public the key findings of a review into arrests made around the coronation but the Metropolitan police assistant commissioner Louisa Rolfe declined to say when and defended her officers’ right to make arrests without evidence.
At a hearing of the London assembly’s police and crime committee, Rolfe said officers in central London had been acting on a “developing intelligence picture” when they detained 64 people, of whom 42 remain on bail pending investigation.
