Original Note:
Royal Mail Horizon prosecutions were private criminal prosecutions. This is not uncommon in England. Organisations like the RSPCA regularly bring private criminal prosecutions. The Crown Prosecution Service (and Director of Public Prosecutions) are not involved in these. https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/private-prosecutions
