During questioning of Post Office former general counsel Chris Aujard, the inquiry was shown advice from Post Office barrister Brian Altman KC. | |
Altman said that even if the Post Office ditched Fujitsu's Gareth Jenkins from future prosecutions as his evidence was "tainted" - there was still a "Jenkins problem" as there was a risk that Jenkins could still influence any new Fujitsu employee evidence. | |
This was due to Jenkins not only being senior but he also one of the principal architects of Horizon which was vital to Fujitsu. | |
Horizon was Jenkins' baby and he would defend it either directly - or via a Fujitsu proxy. | |
