Posting again in the hope someone has had a similar experience or heard of this happening before.

Knock was back in march last year, came as a shock. Police said ip address was linked to a communication offence and had a warrant for devices. Persons device was seized and were told that if anything is on the device they would need to have a word, if not the device would be returned. They came back around 3 hours later and said there was nothing on it but if it was person to count themselves very lucky because they would have been arrested, phone sent to forensics and all the rest.

would you take this as the end or do you think they have copied the device to come back later? It's now close to 13 months and they never actually said it was the end or nfa

They would never return the device if they needed it for an investigation. So that is the end.

If they only took one device and you've already had it back I would have thought that was the end of it. Seems your devices were never sent to forensics.

I'm hoping that's the case and that's the end of it. I read that sometimes they can image the phone so was worried that's what they've done without saying. Annoying that they won't say what they did do and what the next steps are
