The postmaster who served Princess Kate has hailed Chancellor Rishi Sunak's decision to overturn the convictions of hundreds of Post Office victims, but is now calling for accountability from the bosses.
Compensation for the wronged
Emergency legislation will be introduced within weeks to exonerate those wrongfully convicted in England and Wales, potentially leading to six-figure compensation for the victims of the Horizon Post Office scandal.
Princess Kate's connection
Hasmukh Shingadia, the postmaster who was wrongly convicted, used to serve Princess Kate and her family at his shop.
Clearing names
Over 700 branch managers who were wrongly convicted in the Horizon IT scandal could have their names cleared by the end of the year.
Demand for corporate manslaughter charges
MPs are now calling for corporate manslaughter charges to be brought against Post Office bosses following the suicides of four workers who were falsely charged.
Ending a miscarriage of justice
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak described the decision as putting an end to one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in the nation's history.
Landmark TV drama
The decision comes after the airing of ITV's drama "Mr Bates vs the Post Office," which led to a political crisis and years of campaigning by postmasters to clear their names.
Compensation still awaited
While welcoming the decision, Hasmukh Shingadia, known as Mr. Bates in real life, says the fight is not over for those still waiting for compensation.
Postmasters' relief
Hasmukh Shingadia, Princess Kate's former postmaster, called the decision wonderful news and a huge relief for postmasters who have been waiting a long time for justice.
Further questions for Ed Davey
Hasmukh Shingadia and other victims are calling for embattled Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey, who was post minister at the time of the scandal, to face further questioning under oath in the Horizon public inquiry.
They believe Davey did not try hard enough to find the truth and should surrender his knighthood.
