Official Rebuttal: Clarifying Rodney Charl van Rensburg's Status

Clarifying the Facts: Rodney Charl van Rensburg's Professional Standing

It has come to our attention that certain private security entities continue to circulate outdated and defamatory "public warnings" regarding Rodney Charl van Rensburg.
As professionals in the South African Private Investigative industry, we value truth and regulatory compliance above all else.

​We hereby issue this formal correction to the narrative currently being pushed by Mike Bolhuis and Specialised Security Services (SSS).

1. PSIRA COMPLIANCE: THE TRUTH
​Contrary to the "Public Warning" dated February 19, 2026, which labels Mr. Van Rensburg as "illegal," Rodney Charl van Rensburg is a FULLY REGISTERED and ACTIVE Private Investigator (PSIRA No: 144956). The claims that he is operating with an expired license are demonstrably false. While administrative delays in the PSIRA renewal process are common across the industry, Mr. Van Rensburg has successfully met all regulatory requirements. Operating as a licensed investigator is a legal right, and the continued labeling of a registered professional as "illegal" is not only inaccurate but constitutes actionable defamation.

2. ATTACK ON REPUTATION VS. LEGAL FACT
​The South African investigative landscape is often marred by "industry gatekeeping." It is a known tactic to use high-visibility platforms to target independent investigators.
​The Allegations: Public warnings often rely on historical disputes or "pending" statuses to create a veneer of criminality.
The Reality: ISS Investigations continues to serve its clients with the high-level expertise (Grade A, CIT, Armed Response, Special Events and Security Training Instructor grades) that Mr. Van Rensburg earned through years of specialized service.

3. A CALL FOR PROFESSIONAL INTEGRITY
​We call upon industry peers and the public to rely on official PSIRA verification rather than social media "projects."
​Before accepting a "warning" as fact, we urge you to use the PSIRA online verification portal or the SMS verification service.
​You will find that Rodney Charl van Rensburg stands in good standing with the Regulatory Authority.

CONCLUSION
​ISS Investigations remains committed to the highest standards of forensic and criminal investigation. We will not be intimidated by "vigilante-style" reporting that ignores current legal facts. Mr. Van Rensburg continues to operate with a valid mandate, a valid license, and a commitment to his clients' results.

​Stop the Disinformation. Verify the Facts.
