The Police wishes to address the growing concern regarding various forms of extortion affecting our communities. Extortion is a serious criminal offense where a perpetrator illegally obtains money, property, or services through intimidation, or threats of harm.

The SAPS is aware of reports involving individuals demanding money to "bypass" an arrest.

Police do not accept "Spot Fines" or Bribes: An officer demanding money to avoid arrest is committing a crime. Members of the public are urged to report such incidents immediately to the nearest police station or the Free State Anti-Corruption Unit Standby number 082 466 9045. You can also call the National Extortion toll free number 0800 911 011.

We urge the public not to succumb to these threats. Paying extortionists only fuels the criminal cycle. If you are being threatened, please reach out to the SAPS Crime Stop hotline at 08600 10111 or drop an anonymous tip off on MySAPS App.
