5 August 2023- SARS Commissioner Kieswetter has noted the media coverage concerning the liquidation of Tariomix.
The allegations of SARS officials, although unclear, of complicity are taken very seriously and are being investigated by the SARS Anti-Corruption Division. If there is any truth to the allegations, SARS will deal with the officials promptly and harshly.
Commissioner Kieswetter wishes to state that he has been briefed on the matter and cautions against media speculation as there are other factors, that relate to the liquidation, which demand investigation and may, potentially, lead to legal proceedings being initiated.
At this time, the Commissioner cannot provide any further commentary except to assure the public that any form of corruption will be thoroughly dealt with decisively.
