ALT WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I AM ARRESTED? Before arresting you the police should explain that you're being arrested and why. If you're arrested, say "NO COMMENT" to all questions and do NOT accept a caution until you have legal advice. Seek advice from a solicitor with expertise in protest law (see below). You have the right to: •tell someone about your arrest • an interpreter if English isn't your first language • an appropriate adult if you're under 18 or a vulnerable person You are NOT legally required to share your nationality or immigration status when arrested, although police may check this if they suspect you are not a British citizen.
