Post Office Scandal - Part 2


Listen Later

Over 700 subpostmasters/subpostmistresses were convicted of a number of offences based on information from the Horizon system over a 14 year period. Many peoples lives were destroyed as a result of the largest scale UK miscarriage of justice; some were sent to prison, some died before their convictions were overturned, some lost their homes; the stress of what happened affected peoples health and some could not work for years. There was also at least one person who tragically committed suicide.

In this episode I talk to Mohamed Hami about what happened to his wife, Rubbina Shaheen who was a victim of this miscarriage of justice. Rubbina lost everything including her liberty and what happened to her has had a devastating affect on their lives. Her story is a tragic example of what could happen to any of us when we are wrongly accused of committing offences that did not ever happen.
