CCTV pictures released

Apparently the police are threatening to release CCTV footage of people in the area of where someone was murdered. Apparently people should be ashamed if they’ve not come forward as witnesses…I’m not a lawyer but this does seem to be an invasion of privacy and I’m guessing it breaks the Data Protection rules (although theres probably a police get-out clause) as they are publishing details on people NOT related to the crime but just happened to be in the area.

    Yeah, there would be human rights problems with that. Why do you think they blank the faces around and about in the CCTV images on crimewatch.
