But I have a niggling feeling that, had the cops asked the owners of the car to report to the station, and had the car been blown up elsewhere - we would be condemning the the same cops for not arresting the culprits.
Your argument is correct however it shows the serious issue in our police force.
If a policeman arrests you and lets you go when carrying a bomb, in most countries, the Chief of Police would resign.
Now what is worse.
A policeman arresting you then letting you go. Or a policeman arresting you and not even doing a basic search of your person. I can assure you, when they put you in their car in other countries, you are checked to the core. Your car is left where it is and another team comes to collect it.
Lets just accept that there is something wrong with police procedures here and maybe just maybe next time it won't blow up.
