In the case of this Reading - Basingstoke case, seems that the RP officier is tend to be a bit abusive in the questioning in restricting thr answer be yes or no only.

I have a feeling that the caution may not have mentioned the right to slience.

This makes me wonder, is "right to slience" a thing for Revenue Protection caution as in during police interview under caution.

If so, by not mentioning the "right to slience", would the evidence be made can be void when being presented in court?

It seems the RPI was trying to get answers from a suspect who admitted being unable to cooperate due to being emotional. The questions asked are simple, closed, yes or no questions, so I don't get how it could be abusive.

Pure speculation.

Yes.

If the caution is not properly read, it may or may not be admissible, but it is on the defendant to prove this and the contemporaneous notes show the OP said they understood the caution.

Why do you think that?

It apears that this thread has been started to answer a specific question away from the main thread. Unfortunately the OP of the main thread has come here and responded as well as on their own thread. I am therefore going to have to close this thread because the last thing we need is two threads dealing with the same topic.
