Fujitsu staff face statutory inquiry into Post Office IT scandal

Investigation into one of the largest miscarriages of Justice in the UK since the witch trials continues

Two former Fujitsu workers, who are currently under police investigation for possible perjury, will give evidence and face questions in the statutory inquiry into the Post Office IT scandal.

For those who came in late, between 2000 and 2015 736 British sub-post office workers were arrested and jailed for fraud over accounting errors found by Fujitsu's Horizon Post Office’s computer system. However, it was later discovered that the computer code was buggy. To make matters worse, Fujitsu and the Post Office knew about the flaws but failed to reveal them during trials of subpostmasters.
