Making a statement of clarification depends on the post and the comments made. SAPOL's Media Unit staff address comments directly by providing information when a statement is not factual. Posts and comments may also be left for community interaction, providing it does not breach SAPOLs standards. This allows for community correction of facts and ongoing community discussion. SAPOL's Media Unit may choose not to make a comment to ensure a current investigation is not impeded. 2.	Correcting posts may be undertaken as required. Upon request from within or outside of SAPOL, the Media Unit is able to post a retraction or correction of fact. 3.
