It might have taken a drama to galvanise the response to a crisis – but the public inquiry into the Post Office Horizon scandal is gradually bringing more details to light, as hundreds of victims seek justice for their ruined lives.
The inquiry will be hoping to uncover more details when it examines a series of covert recordings. This programme has obtained a summary of some of the tapes – a meeting in 2013 between Post Office executives and the independent forensic accountants brought in to investigate.

What happens to those who commit fraud in Britain? At the end, this is fraud and nothing else!
Fujitsu also need to be held to account.
E: but of course they won’t.
Paula Vennells should be arrested tomorrow on charges of false accounting because she must have signed off the Post Office accounts which included the payments from the postmasters. Additionally she and the board of directors should be imprisoned tomorrow for theft of Postmaster funds. No Bail of course because they would all be considered flight risks.All other charges can wait whilst they languish in prison awaiting their trial date by which time it will be possible to charge them with many other offences as well. Get on with it Police.
Paula for prison forever 😊
The PO – Perjory Office
Vennels needs to have her door kicked down, be put in handcuffs, then be dragged all the way to the Old Bailey on foot with cameras all around.
Paper losses were recovered from subpostmasters, not real losses.
Paula Vennells involvement in the post office cover up is abhorrent. She even profited from innocent people being knowingly falsely accused and imprisoned.
If the judtice system helps those involved in the cover up riggle off the hook, the uk must release all prisoners that are currently in prison for lesser offences. One nation. One people. One JUSTICE!
The Post Office management and our Politicians are a perfect example of how useless you need to be for a top job in the UK these days.
Vennels is a vile woman.
This is monstrous! Can the responsible minister not send someone into the Post Office to investigate from within?
Ben Ella should go to orison
Should read Vennells
How many cats does Ms. Vennels own?
There were clearly lies told about there were "no concerns about the integrity of Horizon". Can the Police tell the public if they are making appropriate investigations? Well done to Lord Arbuthnot for taking this up.
Paula was indifferent to the suicides and horrific suffering she was happy to oversee for her own gain. I suspect that the people will want to see justice and that failure of the justice system to enforce this would be catastrophic to the whole system of law. Paula Vennels herself should want to serve a sentence for what she did.
so who pocketed the money that was missing
Paula vennells must go directly to prison the same as she did to post masters calling them thieves.But they never did steel a penny .
Can't believe fujitis have been given another contract,
Venn els and her cronies must pay the price with a prison sentence not just a fine or a confession.
Conclusive evidence at every corner the post office hierarchy over the years were well aware of the corrupt computer system they allowed their sub masters to use and they were complicit in their wrongful convictions. A total miscarriage of justice and lies said to cover up lies
