Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Paddington Green Police Station Paddington Green Police Station in west central London, is operated by the Metropolitan Police Service. It is a conventional police station, and is open to the public 24 hours a day, but it is also the most important high security police station in the United Kingdom. The building is a typical 1960s office block, other than the 16 high security cells in the basement.
High-profile terrorist suspects arrested across the UK are often taken to Paddington Green for interrogation. Examples include members of the IRA, the British nationals released from Guantanamo Bay, and the 21 July 2005 London bombers. The IRA bombed the telephone box outside of the police station early on the morning of October 10, 1992, as a demonstration aimed at the British security services. Recently media publications have stated the old and decrepit mid 60's Police station as "inadequate to hold terrorists. |
