In full: Former senior Post Office lawyer gives evidence | Horizon inquiry
The Post Office’s former most senior in-house lawyer will face questions from legal representatives of sub-postmasters today.
Chris Aujard, the organisation’s former general counsel, previously told the inquiry that then-CEO Paula Vennells had dismissed recommendations to cease prosecutions against sub-postmasters in late 2013.
The legal professional also resigned as a director from several UK companies in the 48 hours before he gave evidence last Thursday, according to reports by freelance journalist Nick Wallis.
More than 800 sub-postmasters were wrongfully prosecuted between 1999 and 2015 due to faulty Fujitsu software reporting fictional shortfalls.
Former Cartwright King solicitor Martin Smith will also return to the Post Office Horizon IT inquiry to continue giving evidence.
