Our client had been issued with a caution for being illegally in possession of a pepper spray. The client was an international student and originated from a country where pepper spray was legal and widely available.

The client had been in the UK for a number of years and had always had the pepper spray in her possession, and had frequently traveled through Customs into the UK carrying the spray in her hand luggage. On no previous occasion had the client been questioned about the pepper spray, and was completely unaware that it was illegal.

The client was stopped during a routine search into an official premise, whereupon the spray was discovered. The police were quickly summoned, and very shortly afterwards a police caution was issued.

As the client hoped to work in a regulated environment, and had spent many years studying towards this goal, the imposition of the caution would have been extremely detrimental to her career. Pepper spray is classified as a firearm under UK law, and so any disclosure of the caution on a DBS certificate would state that an offence had been committed under firearms legislation.

Despite there being no legal defence in the client’s case, we were however able to successfully persuade the police to expunge the client’s caution, PNC arrest record, and biometric data.
