"Post Office Recruits Former Police to Oversee Horizon Scandal Investigation Team"

The UK's Post Office has hired a team, including ex-police, to investigate its own staff's previous work on the Horizon scandal, which led to the wrongful prosecution of sub-postmasters and postmistresses due to faulty software. The internal investigation comes amid an ongoing public inquiry and government action to clear the names of those wrongly convicted. The Post Office has faced criticism for its past investigation practices and is aiming to right the wrongs of the scandal, with a focus on sharing information with affected individuals.
