How long will the police investigation take?
A police investigation can take several months and the investigation will carry on as long as the police think they can achieve something. They will check developments and try to tie in information with any other similar cases or ongoing criminal activity. If the police collect enough evidence to identify a suspect they will interview the person and take the appropriate action for each particular case.
