Staffordshire Police interviews
Staffordshire Police may deal with an arrest or investigation in this area. Confirm the custody suite or voluntary-interview address with the officer. Police-station legal advice is normally free and independent. You may request Ghafar Khan by name before answering questions.
Court allocation can differ even between neighbouring Staffordshire cases. The latest HMCTS document controls the date, time and venue.
Court and travel information
A case may be heard at the Magistrates’ Court stated on your summons, bail notice or requisition: a Staffordshire case may be allocated to Cannock Magistrates’ Court or another venue according to the proceedings. A serious case may proceed to Stafford Crown Court, Birmingham Crown Court or another court selected for the case. Always rely on the latest official paperwork.
Lichfield City and Lichfield Trent Valley stations provide local and inter-city connections. Allow time for transfers if the hearing is at Cannock, Stafford, Birmingham or elsewhere. A recognised local reference point is Lichfield Cathedral, Cathedral Close and Minster Pool; this is not an office location.
