Former Post Office Investigator Maintains Guilt Stance Despite Overturned Conviction

Raymond Grant, compelled to testify at the Horizon IT inquiry, continues to believe in the guilt of a subpostmaster cleared posthumously.

  • Raymond Grant, a former Post Office investigator, maintains his belief in the guilt of William Quarm, a subpostmaster whose wrongful conviction was overturned posthumously.
  • Grant was forced to give evidence at the Horizon IT inquiry, citing limited time due to his current job and personal circumstances as reasons for his minimal initial involvement.
  • Quarm was convicted of embezzlement in 2010 and died two years later; his conviction was quashed in the Court of Criminal Appeal in Edinburgh last year.
  • Grant expressed regret for his part in the scandal, accusing his former employer of deception.
  • Over 700 branch managers were prosecuted due to faulty accounting software, Horizon, and hundreds are awaiting compensation.
