Not so. Not in the UK, anyway. The BBC famously came unstuck when they outed Cliff Richard as the subject of an historic sex abuse allegation, and it cost them dearly in damages. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/20...-law-ensure-media-can-name-criminal-suspects/ Our press are not allowed to name criminal suspects until they are charged.If the police are questioning someone in an open investigation that is legitimate news and someone would publish the name.
