Post Office justice measures could include special stamp for victims

Victims of the Horizon Post Office scandal could meet face-to-face with Fujitsu and Post Office representatives as part of a restorative justice effort. The charity overseeing a new scheme said the first five months were an initial pilot phase, but it hoped the scheme would last five years and include extra initiatives such as a special commemorative postage stamp. It comes on top of the various financial compensation schemes in place for sub-postmasters. The Horizon IT scandal saw hundreds of sub-postmasters falsely accused of embezzling Post Office funds after faulty software suggested money was missing from their branch accounts. Children affected by Post Office scandal'should get grants' More than 900 sub-postmasters were wrongly prosecuted because of incorrect information from the Horizon computer system.
