SAP - DurbanIn January 1973, Durban became the focus of a series of massive worker protests, with more than 60 000 black workers making their voices heard against disrespect, exploitation, low wages, and the ban on trade unions. These peaceful protests marked a turning point in South Africa’s labour history. The South African Police (SAP) was quickly mobilised to maintain public order, if necessary.

This successful handling has drawn much praise for the Force’s professional and judicious action.
