Council Video subsequently edited

Hi,
I hope someone can clarify what I could do under the following
circumstances:
PCN received for alleged moving traffic contravention (yellow
box junction), and Representations were made in a timely manner.
After 103 days, Council's rejection received, but they have not
responded to an important aspect where the video showed a
vehicle from a side road that did not abide by Highway code Rule
172, nor obey the 'right of way' rule, and caused my vehicle to
get stuck in the box.
Council has not only ignored that issue, but it has now altered
the original video which showed that vehicle's errant action
that caused alleged infringement in the first instance, by
reducing that which it showed initially.
I'm at stage of applying to London Tribunal, but the main issue
that I appealed on has been edited out by the Council, &
Adjudicators will not be able to see the original video which
told the whole story.
How can I request the original copy, please?
Would much appreciate any advice from you on this very helpful
site.
Thank you

The video has to show the moment you enter they box. If they've
edited it such that it starts after another vehicle manoeuvre
which happened after you entered, that should strengthen your
hand.
Hard to comment in detail though as we haven't had sight of the
documents or video yet.
Also, 103 days is likely to be considered unfair. If you help us
to help you by providing the detail we need we can probably find
other things you can win on over and above an argument about
video editing.

Thank you, Mr Chips, for your quick response.
The original video did show my vehicle entering the hatched
space, as well as the vehicle that came out of side road without
waiting at the white lines, but now after it was edited, only
shows the last bit, which is being used to back the Council's
refusal.
This type of action diminishes any faith a motorist could have
in such organisations for justice and fairness.
I need assistance from a younger person to correctly post up the
paperwork for your perusal - which I will attempt this weekend.
Rejection of Representations dated 26/06/26 was received on
30/06, so I believe deadline for applying to Tribunal is coming
up fast (not sure if 28 days from 26/06 is start of clock or
date of receipt).
Thank you very much for your interest and assistance.

IMO, register your appeal now because this starts the process
clock e.g. council know you're serious, they have to deliver
specified docs to the tribunal etc.
You do not need to write War and Peace, you seem to be relying
on your reps and a prospective and fundamental failure to
provide to the adjudicator a proper copy of the primary evidence
upon which they're relying.

If you post up the council, car reg number and PCN number
there's a good chance we can look at it online.
