Post Office Horizon scandal: ITV reveals secret recordings

A secret audio recording obtained by ITV News has revealed Post Office boss Paula Vennells was told directly about problems with the Horizon system and warned not to cover them up. In a meeting with independent investigators from Second Sight on July 2, 2013, Ms Vennells was made aware of allegations that sub-postmaster branch accounts could be accessed remotely. This is something the Post Office had denied for years. She was also told by investigators that the companyā€™s position in denying Horizon faults was both ā€œdangerousā€ and "stupid", according to the recording. Report by Czubalam.
