Please see my next draft. I have made all of the changes that you suggested, but also taken part 2 of the fraud a bit
further as I understand that she concealed shortfalls long term by shuttling them between two stock units at the end of
each accounting period. Do you agree that that is what happened? Any further suggestions?

\ have two comments.

1. My understanding is that unusable notes are not destroyed. So I have amended the charge to
teflect that. Was that contained in the report because I discussed this with Robert Dailly and he did
not think that was the case but I am sure you got this from somewhere.

2. {was wondering about adding in a second part to the scheme as per para (2) — it seems to me that
an essential part of the fraud was to hide the £32,000 during the branch accounting period so that
the Post Office would not ask for the cash back — or refuse to send more stock etc. This was done
by starting to transfer ‘money’ to a different stock unit but not accepting the 'money’ into that stock
unit which would then leave the ‘money’ floating around in the ether. She would then accept it into a
stock unit just before the branch balance was declared (because the system obliges you to do that)
and disguise it as unusable notes and scratch cards.

So I attach a draft for your consideration and I‘m happy to discuss further.

RE: Gorbals

Sorry I was viewing it on my phone earlier in a car park.

The transfer back occurred at the beginning of each period i.e. At the beginning of the period she transferred the
money from 04 to ZZ. but didn’t accept. At the end of the period she accepted it because she can’t balance unless she
does. The inflates the cash to disguise it. Then at the beginning of the next period she transferred it back from ZZ to

04 but didn’t accept it until

the period end and so the cycle went on.

1 made changes in bold that may suit.

you repeatedly transferred money from one accounting stock unit into another, and did deliberately not accept it into
ene unit timeously and did then transfer it back again at the end beginning of each accounting period and
eating the process so that the shortfall was not identified

Outline of action taken in relation to the case against Mrs El Kasaby

Report sent to PF during 2013 with Mrs El Kasaby and Mrs Stewart as potential accused for charges
of embezzlement. Robert Dailly had been in touch with the PF about this case and full statements
were requested before the case was marked. During the preparation of full statements, Suzanne
Winter identified issue with the auditor's report in November 2013

12 December-2013: —-Meeting-with-Andy .Lazzarin (PF),.Rabert. Dailly. Suzanne Winter and Laura
Irvine when PF agreed that he would not proceed against Mrs El Kasaby but
that he would proceed against Mrs Stewart in relation to charges of fraudulent
scheme. He asked for full statements to be submitted.

27 January 2014 mail sent to PF asking if case marked yet and he indicated that he was not
going to be proceeding against Mrs El Kasaby

28 January 2014 Mediation team indicated that if they wrote to Mrs El Kasaby she would know
that the PF was not intending to proceed against her and they wanted to
know when the PF would tell her

@ 28 January 2014 The PF was asked (via email) wnen a decision would be taken but no
response was received as he had been moved.
28 January 2014 Full statements were provided to the PF.
11 March 2014 The PF indicated that he had been moved and had not marked the case yet,

and therefore no letter had been sent to Mrs E! Kasaby. He also indicated that
he was content for the Post Office to confirm to Mrs El Kasaby that no
proceedings would be taken against her. He was hoping to be back in his
office on 3 April 2104.

8 April 2014 The PF indicated that his move to a different office had been extended due to
staff illness. He was not going to be back in his old office in the near future
but wanted to deal with this matter as he had met with the Post Office and the
case was complex.

17 April 2014 We requested that someone else could at least let Mrs El Kasaby know that
proceedings were not going to be taken
@ 23 April 2014 The PF has drafted a letter to go to Mrs El Kasaby and we will continue to
chase the PF to confirm that the letter has been sent. We will ask for a copy
of it.

Thank you for this — I really appreciate your assistance with this.

I don't think the Post Office were technically Mrs El Kasaby's employers and I think she must have applied
for the scheme rather than been asked to take part. So it might be better to leave that sentence out. But
the rest is fine.

As it is an unusual case and we have had a meeting with him about it, I can understand why he is reluctant
to let anyone else deal with it. However we will contact him and suggest that perhaps someone else could

sent to cover court work for a different office until 3 April.

Mr Lazarrin said that he intends to write a letter to Mrs Kasaby to inform her that she will not be prosecuted in relation
to this matter, but has not had a chance to draft it. He said if we want to inform Mrs Kasaby of his decision then we

Are you referring to the Stewart Street Post Office case? If so, Mr Kasaby has not been reported. It
was only Mrs Kasaby.

Therefore there is no Crown involvement with Mr Kasaby.

Alternatively if you need to find out whether Mrs Kasaby has been told there are to be no
proceedings I will chase that.

Kind regards

Are you referring to the Stewart Street Post Office case? If so, Mr Kasaby has not been reported. It
was only Mrs Kasaby.

Therefore there is no Crown involvement with Mr Kasaby.

Alternatively if you need to find out whether Mrs Kasaby has been told there are to be no
proceedings I will chase that.

Kind regards

Good Afternoon Jarnail,

The Procurator Fiscal advised that he has been unable to progress the Stewart Street case because he has been
sent to cover court work for a different office until 3 April.

Mr Lazarrin said that he intends to write a letter to Mrs Kasaby to inform her that she will not be prosecuted in relation
to this matter, but has not had a chance to draft it. He said if we want to inform Mrs Kasaby of his decision then we
can do so. He will draft and send his own letter as soon as he gets back to Glasgow.

Subject: Gorbals Post Office case
Andy

lam sorry to bother you about this as Lindsay has explained to me that you have been dragged away from
case marking and do not have access to these papers.

My clients (the Post Office) are trying to deal with an application to their mediation scheme by Mrs El

Kasaby — I'm not privy to which. This is pretty high profile and I understand that the protocol is such that

they cannot accept an application to join the mediation scheme from someone against whom criminal

proceedings are still pending. They do not want to pre-empt a decision by the Crown and so they are

waiting on confirmation being sent to Mrs El Kasaby. Therefore my clients have asked me to find out if it

would it be possible for someone in marking to advise Mrs El Kasaby that she will not have proceedings
en against her so that the Post Office can take the mediation side of things forward.

Kind regards

indsay was in touch with the fiscal who has been dealing with this case last week. He is unfortunately

matter.

As it is an unusual case and we have had a meeting with him about it, I can understand why he is reluctant
to let anyone else deal with it. However we will contact him and suggest that perhaps someone else could
at least write to Mrs El Kasaby to advise her that she will not be prosecuted and that will allow the Post
Office you to progress the mediation issue.

Are you referring to the Stewart Street Post Office case? If so, Mr Kasaby has not been reported. It
was only Mrs Kasaby.

Therefore there is no Crown involvement with Mr Kasaby.

Alternatively if you need to find out whether Mrs Kasaby has been told there are to be no
proceedings I will chase that.

Alternatively if you need to find out whether Mrs Kasaby has been told there are to be no proceedings I will chase
that.

Sorry to bother you about this again.

The Post Office is concerned that if they write to her and tell her that she can be included in the mediation
scheme, she will realise that no proceedings are going to be taken against her. It, quite rightly, feels that it
should not be the one to do this. I have explained that the Crown is not under any obligation to inform an
accused that proceedings are not going to be taken, but I wondered if you are planning to do that in this
case and, if so, when would that be. If at all possible, the Post Office has asked for a copy of any letter that
you send confirming that no proceedings are going to be taken.

Laura,

While I have not yet informed El Kasaby that the case is not proceeding against her, I am content that we came to the
right decision about trying to use her as a witness rather than trying to prosecute her. She can take part in mediation if
the Post Office want her to. The reference is GG13010308

I was just wondering if you had informed the potential accused Mrs El Kasaby that the case would not be proceeding
against her? Or indeed if that decision had been taken? I know that this was the intention following our discussions.
The Post Office has a mediation scheme running at the moment which is to deal with complaints made by sub-
postmasters about the Horizon system and they need to know if Mrs El Kasaby is going to be prosecuted, or not, so
that they can deal with her case

Are you able to tell me?

I attach the response from the fiscal office. He had indicated that he has not informed Ms El Kasaby that
& case will not proceed against her, but that is his intention. However his view when we spoke to him
s that the case against her sister-in-law Ms Stewart would proceed.

What is the process in Scotland when a security investigation comes to a close without resulting in a summons being issued
(either before or after receiving charging advice), does Post Office send anything to the SPMR to confirm the investigation is
closed and that a prosecution will not happen? What happen in the case of Kasaby.

This case was sent to the PF’s office and is being dealt with by Andy Lazzarin. Robert, Suzanne and I met
with him before Christmas and we discussed the case. He agreed with me that there was insufficient
evidence against Mrs El Kasaby in relation to any crime but that there was sufficient evidence of a
fraudulent scheme being carried out by Mrs Stewart. This offence is similar to the false accounting charge
that you libel in England and Wales.

Suzanne had some work to do with the figures as the auditors had not done a great job there but the fiscal
was not too phased by that and requested full statements and any additional information that would allow
him to proceed to mark this case. I am not sure where Suzanne and Robert are with that but I am meeting

Subject: RE: JACQUELINE EL KASABY ROSEMARY STEWART URGENT

Jarnail/Robert

To is an interesting topic because traditionally the Crown did not tell anyone whether or not proceedings
were going to be taken. Obviously the suspect would know if a complaint (summons) landed on his
doorstep but if the decision not to proceed had been taken, there is no legal obligation on the Crown to tell
the suspect. However in certain cases, the Crown would write and tell people that they were not taking
proceedings and they will generally inform a solicitor if the solicitor contacts them.

In relation to Mrs El Kasaby I don’t think there was enough evidence and the fiscal agreed with me. I think
the plan was to use her a witness. But it was felt that there was enough against Mrs Stewart.

if Mrs El Kasaby has been told that proceedings will not be taken against her then it is likely that her

solicitor wrote to the Crown and the Crown has confirmed this. As Robert has just indicated that has not
come from POL.

4 (or Robert) can contact the fiscal to find out if he has been in touch with Mrs El Kasaby's solicitor.

What is the process in Scotland when a security investigation comes to a close without resulting in a summons being issued
(either before or after receiving charging advice), does Post Office send anything to the SPMR to confirm the investigation is
closed and that a prosecution will not happen? What happen in the case of Kasaby.

If so, what is sent? e@

This case was sent to the PF’s office and is being dealt with by Andy Lazzarin. Robert, Suzanne and I met
with him before Christmas and we.discussed the case. He agreed with me that there was insufficient
evidence against Mrs El Kasaby in relation to any crime but that there-was sufficient evidence of a

fraudulent scheme being carried out by Mrs Stewart. This offence is similar to the false accounting charge
that you libel in England and Wales.

Suzanne had some work to do with the figures as the auditors had not done a great job there but the fiscal
was not too phased by that and requested full statements and any additional information that would allow
him to proceed to mark this case. I am not sure where Suzanne and Robert are with that but I am meeting
with Robert on Monday and will get an update from him.

d El Kasaby full address is;!

On the 28th November 2012 the auditors arrived at Gorbal PO. This is when the nightmare
@eecan. My sister Rosemary Stewart had been managing the post office since Ahmed bought it
over on the 1/2/@6. We had an audit in June 2009 which also highlighted a loss but we
believed it had been due to a former member of staff who left suddenly left. There was
further audits until 28/11/12. On that day the auditors came in I was not scheduled to

work in the Post Office side.

I only ever worked one day per week and Ahmed never worked a day behind the counter in the
post office. We relied on Rose Stewart to complete all accounts and had done so for the
whole period of the franchise.

On the day of the audit we were advised that Ahmed would be suspended and that for eas

the smooth transfer back to us if it was decided that the contract would not be
terminated, although we did not imagine that it would take 3 months to come to this
conclusion having been told that it could be sorted out in the matter of weeks. We at this
point did advise our contract manager that our intention was to sell the post office due
to personal circumstances and that we already had a buyer in place.

We were phoned by a post office employee advising that he could give us the name of 3

negotiated to take over. These decisions were taking place under stress and the idea that
if we at this point kept things the way the post office wanted.

I can — from an emeil to.Paul Beaton on 9/8/2013. Want me to email it direct to Jarnail?

Gorbals (GG13010308) - the first accused denies ail knowledge of the shortfall (El Kasaby). The second (Stewart)
admits that she inflated scratch cards and cash to balance her books due to shortfalls showing on the system but
denies taking money out of the branch. It could be suggested that the false accounting was carried out by accused
Stewart to cover up !oss caused by Horizon. It should be noted that where money is missing on the system and a sub-
post master does not have the funds to pay it back, the shortfall can be ‘accepted centrally’, where the team at
Chesterfield will arrange a re-payment plan — sub-post masters should not falsify their accounts under any

Dear Mr Granville,

Gorbals Post Office, 12 St Ninian's Terrace, Glasgow, G5 ORJ

Anas Sarwar MP has been contacted by the family who manage the above mentioned Post
Office which is situated in his constituency.

We understand that the family who manage the Post Office, the El Kasabys, have been
informed by the Post Office that they owe in excess of £32,000 to the Post Office. The El
Kasebys advise us that they do not understand how this debt has accrued and we would be
grateful if their case could be investigated. We understand that there have been a number of
cases where software used by Post Offices have resulted in them recording incorrect
shortfalls. Mr Sarwar is concerned that this may have happened in this instance.
www.bbe.co.uk/news/uk-23233573<http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-23233573>

We would be grateful is this matter could be investigated as a matter of urgency. Please see
below information from Ms Et Kaseby.

Subject: RE: My Client: Post Office Limited [BD-4A.FID674729] Dear Ms Anderson

@ Ahmed El Kasaby full address is:

On the 28th November 2012 the auditors arrived at Gorbal PO. This is when the nightmare
began. My sister Rosemary Stewart had been managing the post office since Ahmed bought
it over on the 1/2/06. We had an audit in June 2009 which also highlighted a loss but we
believed it had been due to a former member of staff who left suddenly left. There was
further audits until 28/11/12. On that day the auditors came in I was not scheduled to work in
the Post Office side.

1 only ever worked one day per week and Ahmed never worked a day behind the counter in
the post office. We relied on Rose Stewart to complete all accounts and had done so for the
whole period of the franchise.

The fact that we had a shortage was a real shock, but it was unbelievable that the shortage
was over £30,000. My immediate reaction was that there must be some kind of mistake and
that the post office would discover that when they looked at what had gone wrong. This was

e naive, time was going passed and there was nothing happening, I had to make continuous cal!
to PO to hurry them along. Eventually they arranged to interview myself and Rose Stewart,
these conducted ny the security team and these were taped interviews. Ahmed was not asked
to interview at any point, nor had any discussion with anyone at the Post Office.

On the day of the audit we were advised that Ahmed would be suspended and that for ease
for everyone we would be best advised to appoint temp sub postmaster as this would ensure
the smooth transfer back to us if it was decided that the contract would not be terminated,
although we did not imagine that it would take 3 months to come to this conclusion having
been told that it could be sorted out in the matter of weeks. We at this point did advise our

contract manager that our intention was to sell the post office due to personal circumstances
and that we already had a buyer in place.

We were phoned by a post office employee advising that he could give us the name of 3
possible Temps, but that the ASM (area sales manager) would prefer Mr Singh whom we
then negotiated to take over. These decisions were taking place under stress and the idea that
if we at this point kept things the way the post office wanted.

Cc: Irvine, Laura; martin smith
Subject: RE: Ministerial correspondence - Gorbals case (Sarwar MP)

Jarnail,
Laura has now returned to the office and I have discussed this matter with her.

My understanding is that in this case, the first accused, El Kasaby, denies all knowledge of the shortfall. The second
accused, Rosemary Stewart, admitted to auditors that she inflated scratch cards and cash to balance her books due
to shortfalls showing on the system, but denies taking any money out of the branch. During the audit, £1000 was
taken out from the back office. Stewart said the money belonged to El Kasaby and was a repayment of money

borrowed - this was denied by El Kasaby. It could be suggested that the false accounting was carried out by accused
Stewart to cover up loss caused by Horizon.

Robert Daily has in depth knowledge of the facts of the case should you require further information in that regard.

ndrew Lazarrin, Senior Procurator Fiscal Depute, is dealing with this case and has been liaising with Mr Daily since
lhe case was reported. He is aware of the Horizon issues and has taken the decision to suspend a decision on

proceedings pending the outcome of the investigation into the system ‘glitches’. Crown Office (COPFS Headquarters)
are also aware of this case and have, so far, supported Mr Lazarrin's decision.

As you are aware, Crown Office have also received Ministerial correspondence and I would not be surprised if it
telates to the same case. They await a response from us/Post Office tegarding the English and Welsh cases, and
further information about the review by the yet to be appointed independent expert. We understand that Crown Office

are waiting on us to update them before issuing a reponse.
I trust this assists.

Thanks for this. I'm on a train back from Elgin so I won't be able to look at these today - there's wifi but it's
not that good!

Lindsay and I are getting together in Thursday to discuss the training so we should be able to look at this
and come up with a decent outline of the training.

Tam on the mobile later - I think Lindsay's in the office this afternoon. But sounds like you'll be tied up in
interviews for a while!

Good luck

Robert/Simon —_

My view on this is that at the highest we have evidence of a fraudulent scheme committed by Rosemary
Stewart. Leaving aside the issue of the discrepancies with the money, we have an admission from
Rosemary Stewart that she was hiding the losses thorough the computer system. She does not admit to
taking the money and so I do not see any clear evidence of theft/embezzlement.

We discussed charges with Cartwright King when they attended at out office, and we do not have a charge
of ‘false accounting’ and we concluded that the best fit was the charge of fraudulent scheme. I am not
sure how this will go down with the procurators fiscal and therefore my suggestion is that we try to meet
with the PF dealing with this matter to discuss this charge. If he thinks it would work then we can try and
sort out the financial issues. If not then I think my advice will be that this one is not worth pursuing. That
may be the outcome anyway if we cannot sort out the financial discrepancies.

@....: briefly discussed this with Robert, and he is going to contact the PF and set up a meeting with him
as soon as possible.

Robert Daily, Suzanne Winters and I met with the procurator fiscal depute, Andy Lazzarin today. He has
two Post Office case — the Gorbals case and the Carmyle case.

We had productive discussions about both and although Andy has requested further information, he is
happy to proceed with both. Carmyle is a police case but Robert was able to assist with the provision of
information from the Horizon system.

In relation to the Gorbals case, Andy agreed that there was enough for a charge of fraud but not
embezzlement. This would only be in relation to Rosemary Stewart and Jacqueline El Kasaby would not
@ prosecuted but would be named as a witness. When we discussed the accounting problems and the
y with the figures, he was not too phased and said that could be ways round this. Robert was able to
rovide him with a copy of the transcript of the interview with Stewart and he has asked the Post Office to
provide full statements so that he can draft a proper charge. Given the amount of money involved, this
case is likely to proceed on indictment and therefore the trial would be before a jury.

I have the paper file at the moment, but will pass this back to Robert now to proceed.

I was pleased to hear the fiscal say that he thought that this amounted to fraud as that is something we
discussed with Cartwright King. We don’t have the charge of false accounting but this is the best
equivalent. This will be a useful approach for cases going forward.
