A Subject access request

After the visit to my house by the two police officers in 2018, I applied for a subject access request to see the reason for their visit.

The subject access request stated that there was no record of their visit.

I made a complaint. A police storm report was produced: DP-20180703-501, which stated there was a record of their visit.

Two police officers were reported in a storm report as calling to my house on Tuesday 3rd July 2018 at 22.50 pm.

The storm report states:

The storm report is suspect (as an example, the redaction could be removed by simply altering the background colour)

The same was true for other documents that I was sent from Dyfed‑Powys Police.

Based on the nature of these documents, the version of events laid out in these documents cannot be relied on to be true or accurate.

There are multiple indicators that suggest that the storm report was actually referring to someone else and had been altered.

This would be relatively easy to prove. Station records and the officers' notebooks should show where the officers were at the relevant times.

In any event, the subject access request and the storm report cannot both be correct, given the fact that my name, address and date of birth were correct on both documents.

On the 14th December 2023, I received a second copy of storm report DP-20180703-501. It was different from the first copy I was sent. I queried the authenticity of the first one.

I made a comparison between the first and second version of the storm report.
