The Congress of the People says it is being inundated with complaints against SASSA officials for the illegal deductions on pension and grant allowance from the government.

COPE spokesperson Dennis Bloem says COPE will continue to charge all these cruel hearted criminals who prey on the most vulnerable people in society.

Bloem said that COPE will be in the Free State this week to address the matter.


“However, the Department of Social Welfare has publicly admitted that officials are aware of these unlawful deductions” Bloem said.
