Postmasters outside the High Court after convictions quashed.

BGUK_2112607 - Some of the 39 convicted postmasters celebrate as their convictions are quashed. Judges have quashed the convictions of 39 former postmasters after the UK's most widespread miscarriage of justice. They were convicted of stealing money, with some imprisoned, after the Post Office installed the Horizon computer system in branches. The system was flawed and postmasters and postmistresses have spent years trying to clear their names. Judges said the Post Office sought to reverse the burden of proof when prosecuting the postmasters. London, England.
