On Tuesday, there will be another major milestone in the long road for justice for the victims of the post office.
Inquiry in It – Sir Vyan Williams – publish the first part of his final report, focus on the human influence of compensation and scam.
Thousands of sub-postmasters were incorrectly convicted for financial damage from the defective horizon computer system of the post office, developed by Fujitsu.
More than 900 people were prosecuted and 236 were sent to jail, which is considered one of the largest abortion in the history of Britain.
Sir Van kept the victims in the heart of interrogation, who had worthy technical evidence for several decades and grilled many of them who had a role in ruining so many lives.
Dozens of sub -posts also gave evidence – many who had served their business, their homes and some people to jail.
Sir Veen’s findings on his treatment will definitely be damaged to everything that has been heard since the investigation starts in 2022.
To look at the inquiry almost at the box office – to look at youtube more than 20 million times, proceed closely with people who have no connection with the post office.
However, before this months we will know who will do the head Indicate the finger of the defect,
This will come in part two of the report, which means that accountability is still a long way.
Sir Vayan took a major interest in compensation for the victims, with a point that he extended the terms of his reference on the issue, “perhaps beyond the braking point”.
He held four separate hearsation on prevention and released an interim report in 2023, compared to this. Various schemes “Quilt patchwork with some holes in it”.
The victims and their legal representatives are still struggling to secure the final payment, want to see what their findings are on compensation and whether it is living even to the mantra of being complete and fair.
He hopes that his recommendations will result in more action.
Nevertheless, you must be wondering why we are getting only the first part of the final report.
Sir Vyan knows how much compensation is for many of the victims and that is why he wants to publish his recommendations on this issue as soon as possible.
“This is something that I am very keen to say, as much as I can do properly,” he told the investigation last year.
But the implication of this is that part two – to establish what happened and what to blame is coming out at any time.
This second report cannot be published until 2026, which needs to be given to those who are given the opportunity to respond with the sheer volume and complexity of evidence.
for justice, No criminal test can start until 2028The police investigating the scam last month confirmed that the files would not be submitted to the prosecutors until the final investigation report is published.
After years of waiting, even after the publishing part of the Sir Varan’s report, the long road of sub-postmasters will continue for justice.
