POLICE POWERS. ARREST.
In England and Wales the police have wide powers to arrest people suspected of having committed an offence with or without a warrant issued by a court. For serious offences, known as ‘arrestable offences’, a suspect can be arrested without a warrant. Arrestable offences are those for which five or more years’ imprisonment can be imposed. This category also includes ‘serious arrestable offences’ such as murder, rape and kidnapping.
