"Fujitsu's Role in Post Office Scandal: Unaccountability and Societal Impact"

Fujitsu executive admitted that software bugs causing financial discrepancies in the UK Post Office's Horizon system were known since its deployment in 1999, leading to wrongful prosecutions and convictions of over 900 postal employees. The Post Office allegedly edited witness statements and obtained most of the 900 convictions, prompting calls for criminal prosecutions and compensation. The UK government plans to introduce a new law to swiftly exonerate and compensate those falsely convicted.
