Sub-postmaster scandal Inquiry, London, United Kingdom - 16 Feb 2022
A post office in London, Britain, 16 February 2022. The Inquiry into the sub-postmasters scandal that ruined hundreds of peoples lives, with many wrongly imprisoned is continuing and is expected to last to the end of 2022. Between 2000 and 2014, over seven hundred sub-postmasters were accused of theft and fraud in what has now become known to be the most widespread miscarriage of justice in British legal history. The inquiry is looking at whether the Post Office knew about faults in the Horizon IT system and will question how so many sub-postmasters were found to be culpable.
