Following arrest and interview of the half-brother, on suspicion of assault occasioning bodily harm, and gathering of limited evidence (including house to house visits which revealed nothing), the police decided to take no further action as they considered there was no realistic prospect of conviction. Police documents in the hearing bundle included records of a site visit that was undertaken to identify any CCTV or witnesses but there was a nil return. The police concluded that there was insufficient evidence to refer the file to the Crown Prosecution Service (“CPS”).
