Post Office Horizon scandal linked to over 13 suicides, inquiry reveals
A public inquiry into the UK Post Office Horizon IT scandal found that over 13 people may have committed suicide as a result of wrongful prosecutions caused by faulty software, with many others suffering severe mental health issues and financial hardship. The report criticizes the Post Office's handling of the situation and calls for urgent, fair compensation and restorative justice measures. The scandal is considered one of the worst miscarriages of justice in UK history.
