About ACT Policing Headquarters – Winchester Police Centre
The Winchester Police Centre in Belconnen is the headquarters of ACT Policing across the Australian Capital Territory. It houses command, administrative, and specialist policing functions rather than operating as a standard suburban front-counter station.
Members of the public who need to speak with police, report a crime, or attend for bail are usually directed to one of ACT Policing’s community stations at Belconnen, City, Gungahlin, Tuggeranong, or Woden. Even so, some investigations and specialist units are based at or coordinated from the Winchester Police Centre.
If you have been asked to attend, or a matter connected to ACT Policing concerns you, it is important to understand your legal rights and obtain legal advice before making decisions that could affect your case.
Have Police Asked You To Attend ACT Policing Headquarters – Winchester Police Centre?
People are sometimes asked to attend a police facility voluntarily and assume this means they are not under investigation. In reality, police may request an interview as part of an active investigation.
If you have received a phone call from police, a notice to attend, or a request to take part in a recorded interview, it is wise to get legal advice before you respond.
Our criminal defence lawyers can explain:
- Whether you are required to attend;
- Whether you should participate in an interview;
- Your right to silence;
- Potential criminal charges; and
- The best strategy to protect your interests.
