Unlawful Arrest

Here are some examples of unlawful arrest:

  • If there was no good reason to suspect that you committed an offence
  • If the purpose of the arrest was not to charge you but just to scare you
  • If the police officer did not tell you that you were under arrest, and you were not caught while committing an offence
