REAL NEWS – An investigation has been launched into a scheme through which the pensions of deceased persons were being collected by an unknown man.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The matter was reported to the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) by an attorney for the Social Security Scheme.<\/p>\n

According to reports, the Police were advised that an unknown male has been collecting old-age benefits for persons who are known to be dead.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The offence reportedly has been taking place for about two years \u2013 between January 31, 2021 and July 14, 2023.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

A source says the Scheme has been experiencing challenges in paying its beneficiaries, and condemns those persons who are adding to the problem by collecting funds to which they are not entitled.<\/p>\n
