My understanding was that the position on this type of thing differed between England and Scotland in that in England you could withdraw a complaint after the police had got involved but not in Scotland.

Pressing would be pressuring without being able to force while insisting would be pressuring with the ability to force. In my opinion, of course. Looks to me like the CPS caved. Then again, I could be wrong about all of that. the words "it was claimed" and "police are said" are a bit of a giveaway that this is made up by a journalist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
