If the police weren't involved, then they wouldn't have anything on you, and they certainly wouldn't go on a fishing expedition around various agencies, local authorities, etc. to see if they can find anything. I wouldn't expect them to have anything to disclose, unless the Benefits Agency chose to tell them at the time, but if the police didn't contact you, that suggests they weren't involved at all.</description><pubDate>Tue, 01 Sep 2020 13:48:02 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>AB2014</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
