Sorry got above myself but Police officers must be trusted when they enter information in their notebook it must be the truth. I think you will find Perverting the course of justice is a criminal offence in which someone prevents justice from being served on himself or on another party. It is a common law offence carrying a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
All of those who were called would have lied on Oath...Grrrrrrrr and double Grrrrrrrrrrr
