Hi there,
last week I was up town having a drink with my friends and I turned to them and saw two doormen talking with them, before I knew what happend they were fighting and I diddent know what was going on. So I lost them in the club and ran out to find them, two of them had bloody faces and went back to the door of the club where there was loads of shouting, I should have just left but I stuck around and the police came and arrested us all.
They locked me up for 16 hours and interviewed me about it all, they want me to go back in another week to the police station...I got an alleged offence of Assault occasioning actuall bodily harm...I have never been in trouble with the police before and am quite worried now as I just hope they have the cctv of the club or it may be there word against mine. I hope you guys can understand how worried I am, even though I hardly did anything apart form sticking around and being quite drunk. What would you do in my prediciment? Any advice? :)

Were you represented by a solicitor when you were interviewed? It is part of your rights and entitlements when in custody at a police station and it will cost you nothing to be represented at the police station? They would have had critical evidence such as cctv disclosed to them prior to your interview. Make sure you have one upon your return to the station.

If, in your drunken state, you remember correctly it seems likely that the bouncers made a complaint to the police and picked you out, only because you were still there.
I'm guessing your in the UK. If the police wanted to keep you longer the would have on suspicion. Sounds like they are doing an investigation so just cooperate, again if you remember correctly. If you came back with a big mouth threatening that's another story.
