Officer Jason Ames States: He stated that there have been a few people camping on the land
               as they had no were to go. The people were in fact the occupiers of the land and building on

               party.
               Officer Jason Ames States: After persuasion Cordell allowed A/Insp King to gain entry to
               survey the area.
               Officer Jason Ames States: Inside he could see around 20-30 people milling around, 2 small
               tents, a large set of speakers and sound system and a supply of bottled water. AT no point did
               I take part or organise a birthday party or a illegal rave or bring any equipment leading to a
               large sound system on said premises as it would not fit in my car Index MA57LDY a ford
               focus as mentioned in police statement for me to be driving on the 9th June 2014.
               Officer Jason Ames States: Cordell was informed that the rave was going to be closed down
               and despite a slight resistance to this by him trying to quote legislation to us he agreed to
               pack up and leave. Yes when asked to leave by police.
               Mr Simon Cordell will state that he did get into index Ma57Ldy and go home to his flat 109
               Burncroft avenue Enfield to be he lives and reside every night.
               Officer Jason Ames States: Cordell was informed that the rave was going to be closed down
               and despite a slight resistance to this by him trying to quote legislation to us he agreed to
               pack up and leave. "At no point would he go against police directions”

               Officer Jason Ames States: He was reluctant but co-operated at this stage.
               "Mr Simon Cordell will state that at no point would he go against police directions”
               Officer Jason Ames States: The venue had more or less emptied, but the organisers were still
               packing their equipment away.
               "Mr Simon Cordell will state that at no point of time did he have any equipment in fact by
               this time he had left to go home but got detained by way of a police road block at the top of
               Millmarsh avenue soon to be realized with other members of the public.
               Officer Jason Ames States: Approximately 100 people arrived in Millmarsh Lane at the same
               time.
               Mr Simon Cordell will state that as stated at no point of time did he take part in organising
               any event on the 9th June 2014 he did in fact travel alone to attend a friends birthday party
               not an illegal rave as he is being accused of and at the point mentioned did he meet any of the
               people in question out of the 100 people or advise them to attend.
               Officer Jason Ames States: This appeared odd to me that so many people turned up all at
               once.
               Mr Simon Cordell will state that as stated above he was just attending a friend’s birthday
               party not a illegal rave as suspected of it being.
               Officer Jason Ames States: The crowd appeared to be angry at the fact that police had
               interrupted their evening and were shouting and advancing at officers.
               Mr Simon Cordell will state that he did go to Millmarsh lane driving index MA57LDY in a
               silver ford focus on his own to attend a friends Birthday party. He has been to Millmarsh
               Lane before the date in question. His reason for this is he had been invited to do so at any
               time. Mr Simon Cordell will state that he had been invited to a birthday party at no point was
               he attending an illegal rave, neither at any point did he take part in the organisation of this
               birthday party or supply any equipment and that he was present only as a civil citizen up
               holding the UK Law.
               Officer Jason Ames States: One of the groups shouted let’s just storm it."
