    Accurate documentation and handling of evidence are essential to ensure its validity in legal proceedings.

    Street offence charges can be challenged depending on the circumstances. Defences may include lack of intent, disputing the evidence, or procedural errors during the investigation.


    Identifying flaws in the prosecution’s case can significantly affect the progression or outcome of the charges.
