WOKING, United Kingdom, Jan 13, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Wrongly convicted due tobugs in the UK Post Office's computer system, Seema Misra was sent to prisonwhile two months pregnant. Misra, now aged 48, took over the post office in West Byfleet, a villagesouthwest of London, in 2005. The deficits grew over time, but the Post Office turned a deaf ear, blamingMisra's accounting. Running a post office "could have been our adventure" and the start of a"business empire", but "all that shattered," said Misra, who arrived in the UKfrom India in 1994. Misra is still understandably "very angry" at the Post Office, which shesaid "could have stopped it a while ago", but instead "hid the evidence andmade innocent people suffer."
