Maybe it would have helped if I had quoted directly from the ICO report:
"As a result of a Police National Computer check a man found out that his
record contained details of crimes which he had not committed. His innocence was
confirmed through finger print evidence. It was established that the person
who had in fact committed the offences was an illegal immigrant who had stolen
Mr X's identity. The Police thought it impossible to remove the record as they
had no other way of recording information about the offences. However they
agreed to put comments on the record about Mr X's physical characteristics
proving that he was not the offender."
Any better?
