Syed v Director of Public Prosecutions
Queen’s Bench
“It was incumbent on police officers who were considering using force to enter and search premises, without a warrant, to establish first whether they had power to do so on account of some serious or dangerous incident having occurred. Police officers’ concern for the welfare of someone on the premises was not sufficient.”
