Post Office scandal: £600,000 compensation offer "not enough", says former sub-postmaster

Available for over a year

The government has introduced new legislation to automatically quash convictions relating to the Horizon scandal. Under the legislation, affected sub-postmasters will receive an interim payment with the option of immediately taking a fixed and final offer of £600,000. However, Harjinder Butoy, who ran the post office in Sutton-in-Ashfield, says he's owed "a lot more" and that he will reject the offer. He served 18 months in prison after being wrongfully convicted of stealing £208,000 in 2007.
