The post office used private prosecutions to wrongfully pursue post office operators. There was no involvement in them by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). Nor was the DPP able to prevent them using this power. https://amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/jan/09/post-office-scandal-could-rules-change-private-prosecutions
