Original Note:
An arrest has been made and charges could follow. The law requires the information released by the public and CPS to be "managed" to avoid prejudicing the case (contempt laws) and to ensure a fair trial. There is also no verification that the source is a serving officer https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/contempt-court-reporting-restrictions-and-restrictions-public-access-hearings https://www.gov.uk/contempt-of-court#:~:text='Contempt%20of%20court'%20happens%20when,can%20affect%20a%20trial's%20outcome.
