Sefura Matlala, a senior manager for Market Data Analytics at the Special Investigating Unit (SIU), encourages citizens to practice responsible whistleblowing to avoid putting their lives in danger.
“If people do not report corruption responsibly, they are putting their own lives in danger. When you report corruption and you start talking about it to your friends, you do not know who they will share that information with and you may end up being victimised,” she explained.
She added that reporting corruption responsibly means doing it anonymously.
