Christopher Head claimed numerous people in power tried to cover-up the scandal
Numerous people are responsible for covering up the Post Office IT scandal, according to a sub-postmaster who has lost over £100,000 as a result of the ordeal.
Asked who should be held responsible, he told GB News: “It's very difficult to single out one individual.
“Obviously the reason that Paula Vennells has been singled out is because she was made aware on countless occasions of the problems and she was in the position at that particular time to do something about it and failed to do so, I think that’s why it’s been the case.
“But you look back over the years, there are obviously people in Fujitsu, there are people in government or ministers or even civil servants that maybe tried to have damage limitation, let's say, in order to try and make this go away.
“There's countless number of people, there’s previous CEOs, there’s Adam Crozier, this list is endless. We need the inquiry to finish so that we get to the bottom of that and obviously for the Met Police to do their investigation.”
In a discussion during Breakfast with Eamonn Holmes and Isabel Webster, he continued: “David Davis [MP] has mentioned it before. We need to take the expensive lawyers out of it, from the Post Office, and put it into independent hands, but the government's own scheme is doing exactly the same thing.
“Somebody independent needs to oversee it, it needs to be a High Court judge or something, overseeing it and making sure that everybody is fully compensated.”
He added: “It's still hard to put into words really, because I lived in such a small village community and I actually had been in the business since I was 12.
“You knew everybody in the community and when everybody's talking about it behind your back and everything like that, there’s obviously damage to your reputation.”
