News24 reports that the police and government have paid their respects to 27 police officers, including a reservist, who lost their lives in the line of duty in the last financial year.
National Police Commissioner General Kehla Sitole on Sunday noted that police officers were faced with life threatening challenges daily as they battled crime in the country. He was speaking during the annual commemoration of police officers killed in the line of duty, held at the SAPS Memorial Site at the Union Buildings in Pretoria. "Our police members and reservists are well aware of these dangers and the risk they take but they continue to selflessly protect our communities day and night, seeking neither glory nor praise. They also on the same breadth continue to sacrifice their lives for the call of duty," said Sitole.
