Damaging a car is a criminal offence. In a civilised society you should not say, ““We think you might commit a violent offence although we can’t prove it but don’t go to the pub on Tuesday””, or, ““Stay in your semi-detached villa in Ealing from 3 o’clock in the morning till 3 o’clock in the afternoon””. That is not law; it is just whimsical.
