bribery methods

There are direct and covert ways of bribery; direct involves knowing and trusting the person, promising money to lose a docket; covert involves cultivating trust over time and then suggesting a bribe is available.

“If you know the person, you trust the person... So, you will say to them, listen, so and so told me that there is R1000 available for you if you just lose the docket. That is direct... You can have indirect, like, is that not covert? A covert operation where you endear yourself with the person, showing interest in their safety, showing interest in what is happening with them, and then at some points say there is an informer that told me that there is a bribe available.”
