I must get what I can now. It's so bad that a growing number of corrupt police are constantly being investigated by an Anti Corruption unit who are in turn investigated by a unit of the Attorney General and a separate department called the Police Reporting Officer. I must get what I can now. Many contracts are typed on standard blank paper using common word processors. Document security devices such as holograms and watermarks are rare.
Most official documents depend on a simple rubber stamp to be considered 'genuine'.
We don't have the kind of instant, online data bases or freedom of access to information that a US investigator has. Our police technology and skills are way behind the real first world. Our police are unmotivated, understaffed, underpaid and often corrupt. Our courts are much the same but with less corruption. A good example, and a warning for anyone air freighting to this country, is Johannesburg International Airport.
