Post Office lawyer accused of 'big fat lie'
Former senior Post Office lawyer Jarnail Singh has denied that he knew about bugs in the Horizon system while sub-postmaster prosecutions continued for three years. Lead counsel for the Horizon inquiry Jason Beer accused Mr Singh of telling a "Big fat lie". Mr Beer had earlier shown emails sent in 2013 and 2015 which said Mr Singh had only become aware of bugs in Horizon when a report by forensic accountants Second Sight was published in July 2013. Mr Beer accused Mr Singh of a "Cover-up", which Mr Singh denied. A little later, following more denials from Mr Singh, Mr Beer said: "All of this: 'If I received it, if I read it' - it's a big fat lie, isn't it? And you know it, Mr Singh."
