Funnily enough a friend of mine that had never been in trouble with the Police, was taken to the new Station in B'burn, whilst waiting to be either arrested and put in a cell or as he hoped apologised to and released, he was set upon by two officers, then arrested for attacking them. His solicitor demanded a copy of the surveillance video for the time, guess what? It had vanished never to be seen again, because it had gone they couldn't continue a case against him, unfortunately, because it had vanished he couldn't continue a case of police brutality against them.
Funnily enough, no enquiry was set up to find out where the video had gone to or how it could have been removed.
