Former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Post Office Limited Paula Vennells (C) arrives to give evidence to the Post Office Horizon IT Inquiry, in central London, on May 22, 2024.
The scandal has been described at an ongoing public inquiry as "the worst miscarriage of justice in recent British legal history".
The Post Office took 700 people to court between 1999 and 2015 based on faulty evidence resulting from central I.T.
Questions remain over what Vennells and other executives knew, all while the Post Office continued to push for sub-postmaster prosecutions.
Vennells joined at a time when the Post Office was losing significant amounts of money and was under pressure to improve its financial performance.
