1. Victims´ human rights
2. Truth
Victims. 4.1. Victims, regardless of whether they are staff or prisoners, are entitled to services under the Victim’s Code. NOMS, the police and CPS will comply with their responsibilities as set out in the Code of Practice for Victims of Crime.
4.2. The prison will facilitate the reporting of a crime to the police if the victim wishes a crime committed against them to be reported. This does not mean that a full criminal investigation and prosecution will necessarily follow, but it is important that the victim’s views on the investigation and prosecution are properly conveyed to the police and CPS. Police Forces will comply with the NCRS and HOCR when receiving crime referrals. .
4.3. The prison will take into account the views of a victim who does not wish a crime committed against them to be reported to the police. Whilst the views of the victim are important and may influence the decision to refer for prosecution, where the circumstances of the crime meet the criteria set out in Annex B or the circumstances are sufficiently serious, the prison must report the crime to the police while offering appropriate support to the victim.
4.4. The police must ensure that in every case reported to them the victim has the opportunity to provide a Victim Personal Statement (VPS). This includes victims who are prison officers and victims who are prisoners. The purpose of

Details of all police pursuits are not routinely released to the media unless they result in a serious or fatal accident or are linked to a serious crime.

Details about how the accident happened will not be confirmed so as not to prejudice any investigation by the Independent Police Complaints Commission or any future court proceedings.
Victims. What information actually flowed from the presses in the Dutch Republic? Many print media describing the persecution came in the form of letters. This suggests that pamphleteers were genuinely concerned with the question of credibility. At first glance, this might seem odd; there was an enormous influx of people with first-hand experiences, making the presses’ reliance on long-distance correspondence seem unnecessary. Whereas modern technology has almost entirely defeated the delay caused by distance, early modern news did not travel faster than people. Indeed, it is likely that many of the letters published in the Republic were smuggled out of France in the pockets of refugees. 619 Ibid., p. 22. 620 X. Xxxxx, The History of Protestantism, vol. 3 (Wilmington, 2015), p. 336. 621 For a detailed account of the legitimization efforts of the Revocation see X. Xxxxxxxx, Le venin de l’hérésie. Nevertheless, there appears to have been a strong preference for factual information that had been penned in France. The letters may have taken the same amount of time to reach the Dutch presses as the refugees themselves, but at least they were direct reports. The anonymous author of the Lettre escrite de France (Letter written from France) argued that he could well imagine that readers would find it hard to believe all the reports coming from different parts of France. He could barely grasp it himself, despite being in the midst of it all.622 Moreover, research has shown that in the early modern period, as in other periods, people would not usually talk about traumatic experiences, unless it served a socially strategic purpose.623 It is quite possible that many Dutchmen listened to the stories of the refugees with some skepticism. Of course, there was no doubt that the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes had actually taken place. The French court itself had disseminated copies of the edict, of which at least four Dutch editions circulated in the United Provinces.624 Several editions and translations of the Articles du sermens d’abjuration (Articles of the oath of abjuration), the document which the new converts had to sign to officially become Catholic, also circulated.625 This document, quite literally shoved under the noses of the harassed Huguenots, was evidence of the persecutions.626 In a way, the letters served a similar purpose. Instead of deriving from the memory of individuals, they were allegedly direct reports from the ground. Despite the living evidence in the p...
