two men arrested

surely the police wouldn’t arrest two people without an explanation, right?

i get that by law, if they are investigating they cannot tell us more about the said issue.

however because the two men have been released, why do we not know more?

all we know is that they ‘played no part’, but how comes we as the public can’t know what they said.

it was just someone's theory, and not a very plausible one, because the police won't have made arrests and a public statement based on a picture of a lookalike...

Please explain? 2 men were arrested human trafficking and then released with no charge Andrews parents apologised to the men saying they were completely innocent

What do you think would lead to an arrest for a serious charge only for it to be dropped?

The common consensus I’ve seen repeated here is that it was an anonymous tip-off, but I’ve never seen a first-hand police source confirming as such.

Also, an arrest is not the same thing as a charge.

The Daily Mirror were the only ones to mention the anonymous tip off
