Public inquiry into post office scandal starts

Sky, 15 Feb 2022
A public inquiry has begun to examine the wrongful convictions of hundreds of people who ran post offices.

Between 2000 and 2014, more than 700 people were wrongly accused of theft, fraud and false accounting due to a flaw in a computer system.

Some were jailed while others lost large amounts trying to fight for justice.
