3.13 Illegally or Improperly Obtained Evidence

Illegally or improperly obtained evidence is evidence obtained in violation of a person’s human rights or obtained in breach of the law, policy or procedure – and it would be unfair or unjust to use it. All charges related to this evidence must be dropped under this law, but any items related to the offence may still be seized by police under asset forfeiture.
