In Scotland, @policescotland tell "victims of serious crime" that "all electronic devices need to be checked to ensure there's nothing relevant missed."

How do I know?

My house was set on fire and they took my phone & another I had lying about, made me unlock it & checked it.

They then trawled my phone and started asking me questions about my social media habits/messages and, about my YouTube video watch habits.

Basically, they decided I lit the fire while I was asleep and just waited to burn alive....

The same Detective Sergeant at Alness CID also told me:

"If you play with fire you expect to get burnt," after I was targeted by the far-right online shortly before the fire. Sorry the FIRST FIRE attack.

A helpful PC in Inverness offered help after the first fire. He helped me with getting moved.

The Detective Sergeant then used what I said to the PC to claim I set the second fire to get a move.

The issue with that, I'd already been given one by that time...

Undeterred, he then visited people I had messaged on Facebook to see if I had said anything incriminating.

When that failed, they visited my disabled mum who has neurological/memory problems & told her to give a statement but, said my dad, wasn't "allowed in the room."

They accused me of not leaving my home after the first fire despite the fact, wait for this....

I was 20 miles away on the way to my parents, as advised by a PC, when a drunk driver crashed into me. I was literally with police when they claimed I was at home. 🤦‍♂️

In spite of all this, a year later I was arrested, the charged with both fires & for wasting Police time.

They're trying to use my own mother as a witness against me despite the fact she couldn't remember her statement the next day.

Fail to check I wasn't at home as above.

Also, because I watched a YouTube video about the Oklahoma Bombing, that is being used against me.

And, because I wanted to move ASAP after the 2nd fire, despite already preparing too, they say I lit it to move.

I was 1mins from my kids, now I'm 20. Not my idea of good.

The also used my then association with @Resisting_Hate_ as a bad thing as calling out the far right is a bad thing?

TWO years after the fire and I still have no closure.

My solicitor is extremely confident in this case.

I will clear my name & have @policescotland investigated

If you're not comfortable following me, I completely understand.

I'd hope my actions speak for themselves.

I only escaped the 2nd fire because my neighbour woke me as the house was lit.

Everything The Crown Office are using is above. Nothing else. Full disclosure.

Rest of THREAD in quoted tweet, I replied in the wrong place.

So now I have to wait for a trial anytime between July 2019 and March 2020.

I am 100% confident the truth will out and, that @NHighlandPolice will be forced to investigate their officers for such poor work.

Scaring my severely disabled mum witless was the last straw.

I was literally with other Police officers at the time they said I was 20 miles away at the scene of the fire....

Using my YouTube watch history as proof? No fire videos where there btw.

I was already moving so lighting a 2nd fire to get a house move wouldn't make sense.

Oh finally, the first question I was asked in my interview was;

"So you're a Muslim Alex?"

Worth noting that someone who I was friends with in school, and after, was one of the officers present. Felt odd to say the least.

The SAME Detective Constable interviewing me also ignored an accusation of domestic sexual assault/rape ON me in 2017 because, they'd have been forced to interview me as a victim.

I didn't report it myself, someone else did on my behalf as I was too embarrassed.

This is why I campaign on domestic abuse & #UniversalCredit so much.

I lost all faith in the system after this.

If you do something wrong once, you're treated like the accused all the time, never as a victim.

I'm sharing this because it's right people know the facts.

If the only way I can get @InvernessPolice to take my RAPE complaint seriously is by losing my anonymity on here, then fine.

I'm not asking for a conviction but taking a statement from me would be a something at least.

Police Scotland have made contact with me to investigate my allegation As such, I'm no longer able to comment on the above.

This is to ensure any investigation to proceeds free from prejudice for both myself and anyone else.

Thank you for the support over the past few days.
