Disclsoure of information in such cases is likely to impede the investigation under progress. Please examine in the light of section 8(1)(h) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Act, there shall be no obligation to give any citizen, information which would impede the process of investigation or apprehension or prosecution of offenders; Notwithstanding anything contained in this Act, there shall be no obligation to give any citizen, information which would impede the process of investigation or apprehension or prosecution of offenders; and also whether disclosure might affect the physical safety of the individual.
