Reporting from the inquiry | |
We’ve been speaking a lot over the last two days to Parmod Kalia, a former | |
sub-postmaster from Orpington, Kent, who was given a six month jail sentence after being | |
falsely accused of stealing £22,000 from the Post Office. | |
Earlier, he sat in the inquiry room with tears in his eyes as inquiry counsel Ed Henry KC questioned Angela van den Bogerd about a letter she sent to him in 2015 insisting that the | |
Horizon system was robust. | |
I caught up with Parmod here at the inquiry and he told me the exchange was "very tough" to watch. He welled up again as he told us how he was feeling: | |
He [Henry] brought back memories of my mum. I had to beg and borrow from her, and I could never pay her back. It was very important for the barrister to bring it up. Despite her knowing about remote access, she’s still maintaining the same line." | |
I asked if he had heard what he wanted to from Van den Bogerd, to which he told me he was looking at her throughout the questioning because he "wanted some kind of acceptance". | |
“I haven’t got what I’m looking for which is a public apology to me personally. I know she apologised to everyone yesterday, but that was off a bit of paper," he said. | |
“I still need the Post Office to acknowledge what they put me through. She’s broken me." | |
