Swimming South Africa says they are aware of the two cases of sexual abuse and harassment that was reported to SAPS by two of their athletes.
The CEO for Swimming South Africa Shaun Adriaanse says the two cases are unrelated as one dates back to approximately 40-years ago while the other case, is a recent one.
He says Swimming SA will be investigating these serious allegations to ascertain if its alleged members are in breach of the Federation’s policies and code of conduct.
Adriaanse says they will not comment any further on the matter until their investigation is complete.
He says under the circumstances, they are unable to confirm the identity of any of the parties involved.
