Pre-inquest review hearing has been held. According to reports the police are asking for release of information gathered by the AAIB to help with their investigations. Does anyone think that this will not be permitted by the high court.
If the AAIB during investigations establish that a possible cause could also be a criminal act (for example deliberate cutting of hydraulic pipes, false record keeping) then do they have to or have a duty to report this to the police? After all most professionals have a duty within their profession and are legally bound to do so if they have reason for concern.
