# A company owner is accused of using over one-thousand ID numbers to defraud the Unemployment Insurance Fund’s temporary employment relief scheme of over 100-million-rand. The company owner allegedly submitted over six-thousand claims for non-existing employees. The Special Investigating Unit told Parliament’s finance watchdog Scopa the employees were identified within 24 government departments with the assistance of the Department of Public Service and Administration. Chief forensic investigator Johnny le Roux says they found the organisation had no other registered employees but the owner himself.
