A wrongly-jailed postmaster's wife has described the ordeal of seeing her husband locked up.
The former councillor said he had thought he was the only one affected until an investigation by BBC Wales' Taro 9 found 30 other sub-postmasters claiming they had had similar experiences.After years of fighting, he and the other 38 sub-postmasters' convictions were quashed at London's Court of Appeal."It's been 16 years and for the first four, I thought I was the only one.
"I cried my eyes out. I just thought, 'you shouldn't be there Noel fach - you should be home with us'," Mr and Mrs Thomas, who have been married 52 years, last year lost their eldest son, Arfon, aged 51 after a short illness."I would have liked to have seen him with me in London [at the Appeal Court], we'd have been sure to have found a place to celebrate, because Posti liked a pint."
