Seema Misra, a former Post Office manager, has rejected an apology from Gareth Jenkins, an engineer whose evidence led to her wrongful conviction. Misra was jailed over faulty accounting software, despite being pregnant at the time. Her conviction was quashed in 2021 after 12 years. Jenkins, who is under investigation for potential perjury, apologized for the "tragic" outcome, but Misra called it "too little, too late". She had been accused of stealing £75,000 from her Surrey branch. The Post Office Inquiry is ongoing, with Jenkins' apology deemed insufficient by Misra and her family.
