Not that this evidence was in fact improperly gotten, I’m sure this is just the UK’s famously haughty aristocratic legal system helping out one of the card carrying members of the old boys club.
You are correct of that. In the US in fact, grand juries, congressional testimony, and idk what else, has been used to give immunity to perpetrators.
Ie, the Iran Contra douchebags, they gave them congressional immunity to force their testimony or some shit. It was before my time so not sure on the details.

They still do that, they can even abuse these rules and make some procedural error deliberately to mess up an investigation.
With the Swedish system, the evidence is evaluated on it’s own, and procedural error are dealt with separately.
This gives the police fewer ways to completely legally get rid of evidence from being considered.
