Prosecutor UNAWARE of Prosecution Code at Post Office Inquiry

Prosecutor David Teale seems to be unaware of Scotland's Prosecution Code during his time as Procurator Fiscal, leading Scotland's prosecutions in subpostmasters cases when questioned on it at the Post Office Inquiry despite it being published SEVEN years before the case in question.

Despite this, he says that he would of course have this to hand and consider things such as public interest as well as the reliability, credibility and accuracy of evidence presented as part of a Post Office private prosecution case.

We analyse David Teale's evidence to the inquiry.
