Between 1999 and 2015 the Post Office relentlessly pursued operators of sub-post offices across the UK for alleged theft, fraud and false accounting based on information from its Horizon IT system installed in the late 1990s.

In total, about 3,500 branch owner-operators were wrongly accused of taking money from their businesses, with more than 900 prosecuted by the Post Office despite protesting their innocence and raising issues with the software in their defence. The scandal is frequently described as the most widespread miscarriage of justice in UK history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key witnesses, including ex-Post Office chair Henry Staunton, give evidence to UK lawmakers about the UK Post Office Scandal.
