Under "further reading", TFA links a more complete BBC piece [0], which documents that the sub-masters got screwed twice:
In December 2019, at the end of a long-running series of civil cases, the Post Office agreed to settle with 555 claimants. It accepted it had previously "got things wrong in [its] dealings with a number of postmasters", and agreed to pay £58m in damages. The claimants received a share of £12m, after legal fees were paid.
Those lawyers abused them worse than the Royal Mail did.
