Sergeant Govindsamy Reddy
Sergeant Govindsamy Reddy was the first policeman of Indian descent to be appointed as a law instructor at the Wentworth Police Depot in Durban. He began his duties in 1962 and taught recruits about the law, police procedures and their duties towards the public. He believed that police officers needed both theoretical knowledge and practical skills to serve and protect their communities. He guided recruits with care and understanding while maintaining discipline and high standards.
