Directive 7.7: Legal discharge, shelving and acquittal
When a person is involved in a legal action and the decision is taken to dismiss or shelve the case, or the person is acquitted, the announcement of the decision must be, in form, proportional to the presentation of the offence. If the identity of the person is published, in applying the exceptions listed above, or if the person is identifiable, announcement of the judicial decision should, in a spirit of fairness, take this into account.
