³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ

Anjana and Baljit Sethi used to run post office branches in Essex where they raised their three children - they're a Post Office family through-and-through.

Sadly they were caught up in the Post Office scandal, where a flawed computer system called Horizon showed that their Brentwood branch had a hole in its accounts of £17,000.

Baljit and Anjana were told to cover it out of their own pocket - they couldn't, they lost the business and went bankrupt.

In 2019, the High Court slammed the Horizon system as "not remotely robust" - and it transpired that the Sethi's were one of dozens of postmasters who'd been wrongly accused of theft.

A public enquiry gets underway today (14 Feb 2022) and Baljit Sethi is due to be the first witness.

A Post Office spokeswoman has told the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ: "We are sincerely sorry for past failures and are taking determined action to provide redress for the people affected."
