I suspect the reason Obsid didn't allow it was because its against the law to distribute photos of people and identify them as criminals before they have been actually charged, prosecuted and convicted. If you do something like this and it's a case of mistaken identity or just suspicion, you've publicly accused someone of criminality which is really damaging to that person. And it is also defamatory. Which may not matter to most people, because the feeling is these guys are just crooks anyway, but it will matter a lot if an innocent person's face is ID'd as a criminal through an action like this.
So I doubt SAPS would allow it either. Justin > On 01 Jul 2015, at 2:00 PM, Jenny Calder <[email protected]> wrote: > > Maybe try and get the image via SAPS? Do you have Const.
