If you are arrested the police will need to interview you in the presence of an appropriate adult. This might be a parent, a carer or a representative from the YOS.
You have a right to free legal advice, the police will phone a solicitor on your behalf.
Following your interview a number of things may happen, you may be:-
· Released without charge
· Bailed whilst the police make further enquiries (you will be given an appointment to return to the police station to ‘answer bail’)
· Bailed to the Youth Bureau
· Bailed to attend Court
· Remanded until a remand application is made to the court
