In recent years, there has been a concerning trend of false reporting of kidnappings, leading to the misuse of resources and significant consequences for both law enforcement agencies and innocent individuals.
The South African Police Service (SAPS) is often at the forefront of responding to these reports, but the impact of false reporting cannot be overstated. False reporting of kidnappings can have various motives, including seeking attention, revenge, or financial gain. Regardless of the reasons, the consequences are far-reaching and detrimental.
REFER TO OUR PREVIOUS 2 PROJECTS FOR AN EXAMPLE ON OUR WEBSITE AND FACEBOOK PAGE.
PERJURY:
Falsely reporting a case to the SAPS constitutes perjury, a fact unknown to many people.
Perjury is the act of intentionally lying or giving false information while under oath.
Although it may not seem like a serious crime, it can take many different forms and is more common than one might think.
In the context of South Africa, perjury charges can be brought against anyone who makes a false statement under oath, such as when opening a police case or filing an affidavit.
It is important to remember that any statement made under oath is considered to be a solemn promise, to tell the truth, and breaking that promise can have serious legal consequences.
Penalties for committing perjury can include up to 10 years of imprisonment, a substantial fine, or probation.
Never make false statements that obstruct any legal proceedings, as this is a severe offence.
CONSEQUENCES OF FALSELY REPORTING A KIDNAPPING:
WASTE OF RESOURCES:
Every report of a kidnapping triggers an extensive response from law enforcement agencies, including mobilizing officers, conducting investigations, and allocating resources.
False reports divert these valuable resources away from genuine cases, delaying responses to real emergencies and compromising public safety. DAMAGE TO REPUTATION:
False reporting undermines public trust in law enforcement and diminishes the credibility of genuine kidnapping victims.
It creates scepticism among the public and may lead to reluctance to report legitimate cases, fearing disbelief or retaliation.
LEGAL RAMIFICATIONS:
Falsely reporting a kidnapping is a criminal offence punishable by law.
In South Africa, under the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Related Matters) Amendment Act, 2007, Section 11(1), knowingly laying a false complaint regarding the commission of an offence is punishable by law.
EMOTIONAL TOLL:
False reporting can have significant emotional consequences for both the individual making the false report and the accused wrongly implicated.
It can cause distress, anxiety, and trauma, affecting their mental well-being and relationships.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All potential clients need to be aware that owing to the nature of our work as specialist investigators there are people who have been caught on the wrong side of the law - who are trying to discredit me - Mike Bolhuis and my organisation Specialised Security Services - to get themselves off the hook. This retaliation happens on social media and creates doubt about our integrity and ability. Doubt created on social media platforms is both unwarranted and untrue. We strongly recommend that you make up your minds concerning me and our organisation only after considering all the factual information - to the exclusion of hearsay and assumptions. Furthermore, you are welcome to address your concerns directly with me should you still be unsatisfied with your conclusions. While the internet provides a lot of valuable information, it is also a platform that distributes a lot of false information. The distribution of false information, fake news, slander and hate speech constitutes a crime that can be prosecuted by law. Your own research discretion and discernment are imperative when choosing what and what not to believe.
STANDARD RULES APPLY: Upon appointment, we require a formal mandate with detailed instructions. Please take note that should you not make use of our services – you may not under any circumstance use my name or the name of my organisation as a means to achieve whatever end.
