My partner was pulled over for his passenger acting suspicious as police were carrying out road side checks. He was at work at the time training a new driver on deliveries this being the 1st time having met the passenger. The police could smell cannabis in the van. It actually hadnt been smoked in the van but the passenger had in his possesion.
Due to smell my parnter was asked to take the impairment test on the road side to which he passed he was swabbed to which he passed. Due to my partner 10 years ago having a criminal history nothing to do with drugs the police were not satisfied due to smell in the vehicle and said they would like to carry out a strip search to which my partner complied and was taken across to the police station. All whilst this is happening the passenger was not searched he was asked his name and let go to he drive the vehicle away. Baring in mind if they had searched him they would of found drugs. My partner is a social smoker he vary rarely smokes cannabis he had not smoked anything but 1 spliff more than 12 hrs prior.
At the police station he was not stripped searched and at the custody desk he was patted down again shoes etc. The officer than asked his sergeant wether he was able to carry out a blood sample which was granted. He was not interviewed and not put in to a cell. The blood test was taken. We now have the results 9.6 in his system. Bare in mine he passed the road side test and that his passenger who was not even searched. We feel that steps wasnt taken correctly and under false pretence i.e going back to station for a search to than carrying a blood sample. What can he do he as he is at court early april any advice please?
