> This is similar to someone caught in video robbing a store but beating the charge because of a technicality

It is more like someone being _accused_ of robbing a video store and then it turned out the only evidence against them was acquired when the police broke into his home to steal his dairy.

And to add to that. Broke into his home to steal his diary without noticing that they were outside of their jurisdiction. When they mentioned this oversight to the Acting Prime Minister, he forgot to pass it on to the Prime Minister (who may have been somewhat distracted fending off attacks on another minister who broke the law accepting campaign funds from the guy who broke into the video store).
