Two separate web search results explicitly state that the SIU has dismissed claims that it is specifically investigating high-profile social media influencers. The first source states the SIU 'has dismissed claims suggesting that it is specifically investigating high-profile social media influencers,' and the third source mentions the SIU 'pushed back against a viral social media post claiming it was expanding a corruption probe to target several high-profile South African influencers.'

Both the first and second web search results confirm that the context for the SIU's clarification was a viral social media post claiming the SIU widened its investigation from state officials to include popular online personalities. The first source states, 'This comes after a viral social media post claiming the SIU had widened its investigation into state officials to also probe popular online personalities.'

Two distinct web search results provide the exact statement that the SIU's operations do not focus on individuals. The first source quotes the SIU stating, 'The SIU does not target people, nor do we investigate people,' and the second source reiterates this sentiment.

Multiple web search results corroborate the SIU's focus on procurement processes within state institutions and government departments. The first source states, 'We investigate procurement processes in state institutions and all levels of government departments,' and the second source confirms this by stating, 'We investigate procurement processes in State Institutions and all levels of government departments.'

Two different web search results quote the SIU stating that 'The law that governs the SIU states that the SIU does not identify its own investigations.' This is corroborated by the context provided in the search results, although the Wikipedia results found were irrelevant to the SIU's internal law.

Two web search results detail the process: receiving allegations, assessing them against the mandate, and writing a motivation for a proclamation to the president. The first source states, 'We receive allegations, which we then assess to see if they fall within our mandate, and we write a motivation for a proclamation to the president for authorisation.'

Three independent web search results report the exact same details regarding the freezing of assets: R76.5m, 17 properties, and 7 luxury cars, linked to businessman Siyabonga Nkosi and Eskom corruption.
