| Comment | Hey — I’ve been through this process I can offer you some guidance.
Somebody above commented about PIRC. They regulate Scottish Police. It’s a waste of time. It’s made up of ex Police officers and what you would be complaining about happens every single day. They’ll just say they’ll use it for organisational learning and then… not learn.
If your house has been raided without due cause make sure you take pictures of everything including all the damage and keep receipts of costs incurred.
If your wife is traumatised and this has in any way raised her anxiety, make sure she speaks to her Doctor and gets it formally logged. Even better if she gets long term treatment for it or a diagnosis of PTSD. I would be traumatised if the Police broke entry to my home in this nature. For yourself too.
Next point of call would be to contact a Personal Injury solicitor, preferably one that specialises in GDPR. How did the Police get your data and how did they use this information to make assumptions about your address?
I personally can recommend Thompsons, they may consider doing this on a no win no fee basis.
Document everything and make sure everything is backed up professionally.
The Police have insurance they can afford to pay compensation for f*****g up.
Good luck, feel free to DM if you have any questions. |
