Give me one example. Where e.g. a public figure or terrorist suspect is kept under wraps until they’re found guilty.




The Christchurch terrorist in New Zealand. Unlike in the US, his name and mugshot were never plastered around media, and his name is still popularly unknown.

Multiple footballers in the UK who were accused of sexual harassment. People tried guessing who they are, but all police released was "a footballer in his 20s from Manchester is under investigation for sexual harassment/assault/etc".

Not one example of it being done properly. One country. (I’ll grant New Zealand as a likely candidate.)
