How do you identify an Arresting Officer?

When arresting a suspect, a Police officer who is not in uniform should identify himself/herself by producing his/her warrant card. He should also inform the person to be arrested that he is a Police officer. If in doubt, the suspect should demand to see the warrant card to verify the identity of the arresting officer.

If you still have doubt about the officer’s identity, you should call ‘999’ for assistance.
