My partner was recently pulled over by police on his way to work at 2.30am. We have both endured harassment by police for last 5 months and he is currently on bail. He stopped and the pc came over to the vehicle, asked him to turn off the engine and asked for his details. Assuming he had went back to the squad car to confirm this, my partner panicked and drove the 30 second drive up the hill home. Jumped out the van and ran. All this purely because they have struck the living fear into us for month's and he wasn't aware of him committing an offence and breaching bail. Anyhow, he was too scared to turn up for work or contact home for 10 days as he thought he'd be arrested. Police had hassled both myself and his brother near every night looking for him. When I spoke to the pc on the Saturday, he said he didn't want to arrest him, only charge him for an offence (not state what the offence was). If I could try and make contact with him and get him to contact the station within a week, he would not charge him with failure to stop, only failure to supply breath specimen. My partner contacted me 4 days after the police had spoke to me (within the week that the pc had specified) and off his own back had called them. He has been told he is being charged for both offences. So despite the pc lying to me he has also charging him for failing to provide specimen. He was never asked for one in the 1st place. Where does he stand with regards to both charges? Thanks
