House of Commons vote on extending the maximum time police can hold
terror suspects to 42 days. There is talk of compensation packages
available for the falsely accused. The chances of you getting that
money however are slim to none, lets not forget, this is the same
country that charges prisoners who have been falsely accused for bed
and boarding costs."
