Police Contact Clarification Reasons
Summary
Police may contact a victim multiple times for clarification, evidence gathering, or well-being checks. Nfa decisions typically inform the suspect, not the victim. The nfa process involves informing the suspect, and reasons can include lack of evidence or public interest. Victims can request updates from the police.Full Conversation
would they contact twice if it was to inform of an NFA
In cases where the police decide on a "No Further Action" (NFA), they typically inform the suspect rather than the victim. If the police contacted the victim twice, it might not be related to an NFA. Instead, they might be seeking more information or clarification. Would you like to know more about the NFA process?
yes
The "No Further Action" (NFA) decision means that the police or Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) have decided not to proceed with charges against a suspect. Here's a bit more about the process:
- Informing the Suspect: The suspect is typically informed if an NFA decision is made.
- Reasons for NFA: Lack of evidence, witness reliability issues, or the public interest test not being met.
- Victim's Role: The victim may not be directly informed about the NFA, but they can request updates from the police.
Is there something specific about the NFA process you'd like to explore further?
