Unlawful Data Seizure, Retention & Surveillance/Stoking of a Man


🧾 Personal Statement of Facts

I assert that the agents of Thames Valley Police, acting under the direction or authority of PC Harriet Lacey (P4867), have engaged in repeated and unlawful processing, retention, and use of my private data and personal communications, in breach of multiple statutory frameworks. These violations are not technical — they amount to a sustained invasion of my private life, my medical confidentiality, and my right to be let alone.


📦 The Events

  1. On 1 August 2025, my three phones were seized during an arrest carried out without a warrant, contrary to PACE 1984 and the Criminal Law Act 1977.
  2. Those devices contained medical data (diabetes control apps), private legal documents, and personal communications.
  3. I submitted multiple Subject Access Requests (SARs) and Freedom of Information (FOI) requests regarding my own data (Logs #324, #488). I was stonewalled or denied.
  4. The police refused to return my data, citing powers under PACE s.22 (Log #318), despite the absence of any active investigation or charge.
  5. I later learned, via internal records and metadata, that they had accessed my private material, including protected legal communications and confidential health data.
