Ravinder Navi has returned to his household’s submit workplace for the primary time since wrongly being convicted of theft on account of the Horizon laptop scandal virtually 15 years in the past.
In February 2010, Mr Naga falsely pleaded responsible to stealing £35,000 after auditors found an alleged shortfall at his mom’s submit workplace in Greenock – however attraction judges overturned his conviction on Thursday.
He says he took the blame as a result of he was nervous his mom would not survive a possible jail sentence.
“I really feel if I hadn’t carried out what I carried out 15 years in the past, I wouldn’t be sitting right here now getting my conviction overturned. I’d have been sitting right here now getting a letter saying that my useless mum was being exonerated,” mentioned Mr Naga.
He is the eighth sufferer of the Post Office Horizon scandal to be cleared by the courtroom system in Scotland.
