Post Office investigator says cleared sub-postmaster was guilty
A former Post Office investigator has said he still believes a branch manager, whose conviction was overturned after his death, stole money from his Post Office. Raymond Grant told the Horizon IT inquiry on Wednesday, that he considered William Quarm to be guilty. The former sub-postmaster, Mr Quarm had raised concerns about the ATM at his branch and possible errors in an interview with Robert Daily, another Post Office investigator in 2008. Counsel to the inquiry, Jason Beer KC, asked the former investigator: "When you made a witness statement, did you think that Mr Quarm continued to be guilty of the crime of embezzlement?". The long-running inquiry into the Post Office scandal is looking at prosecutions brought against sub-postmasters across the UK. Between 1999 and 2015, the Post Office prosecuted hundreds of sub-postmasters and mistresses after a faulty computer system called Horizon made it look like money was missing.
