Legal requirement to produce material for the
Criminal Cases Review Commission

To: Ms Paula Vennels
Chief Executive
Post Office Ltd

The Commission believes that you are the “appropriate person” for the
purposes of section 17 Criminal Appeal Act 1995 who has possession or control
of documents or other materials which may assist the Commission in the
exercise of its functions.

This notice now imposes a requirement upon you in respect of the following:

All documents and other materials, including material which has been the
subject of an application for public i munity, relating to the conviction of
Mr Khayyam Ishaq (date of birth including but not limited to audit
files, investigation files, prosecuti nal reviews, and external reviews.

Mr Ishaq was convicted of theft at Bradford Crown Court on 07/03/2013.

The Commission makes a direction under section 17(2) Criminal Appeal Act
1995 that the documents and/or other materials must not be destroyed,
damaged or altered. This direction takes priority over any weeding/destruction
policies until this direction is withdrawn by the Commission.

You now have a statutory duty to send all documents and other materials
specified above.

Your duty to comply with this requirement is not affected by any obligation of
secrecy or other limitation on disclosure (including any such obligation or
limitation imposed by or by virtue of an enactment) which would otherwise
prevent the production of the document or other material to the Commission or
the giving of access to it to the Commission. You may however notify us, in
accordance with section 25 of the Criminal Appeal Act, that information
contained in the material is not to be disclosed by the Commission without your
prior consent.

on behalf of the Commission
