[F128G Searching arrested persons.U.K.

(1)This section applies if a person is arrested for an offence under this Part at a place other than a police station.

(2)An immigration officer may search the arrested person if he has reasonable grounds for believing that the arrested person may present a danger to himself or others.

(3)The officer may search the arrested person for—

(a)anything which he might use to assist his escape from lawful custody; or

(b)anything which might be evidence relating to the offence for which he has been arrested.

(4)The power conferred by subsection (3) may be exercised—

(a)only if the officer has reasonable grounds for believing that the arrested person may have concealed on him anything of a kind mentioned in that subsection; and

(b)only to the extent that it is reasonably required for the purpose of discovering any such thing.

(5)A power conferred by this section to search a person is not to be read as authorising an officer to require a person to remove any of his clothing in public other than an outer coat, jacket or glove; but it does authorise the search of a person’s mouth.

(6)An officer searching a person under subsection (2) may seize and retain anything he finds, if he has reasonable grounds for believing that that person might use it to cause physical injury to himself or to another person.

(7)An officer searching a person under subsection (3) may seize and retain anything he finds, if he has reasonable grounds for believing—

(a)that that person might use it to assist his escape from lawful custody; or

(b)that it is evidence which relates to the offence in question.

(8)Subsection (7)(b) does not apply to an item subject to legal privilege.]
