I must admit it was late at night so didn't really register the difference.
Have looked this up, and think, that maybe it just means she is out on bail but he isnt??
The police will charge you if they believe they have enough evidence to prove:
- a crime has been committed
- you committed the crime
The police will decide if:
- you can go home until your first court hearing – you can agree to follow certain rules, known as an 'undertaking'
- you can go home while the procurator fiscal decides whether your case will go to court – you'll get a letter with the court date
- you'll be kept in police custody until you're taken to court for your hearing – this will be the next day unless it is a weekend or public holiday
- they'll give you a Recorded Police Warning or fixed penalty notice
- no further action will be made against you
