Summary

Law enforcement officers are expected to carry out their duties with due respect for the human rights of all South Africa's citizens - hence they must understand the new Bill of Rights and how it relates to law enforcement. This text, previously published as Human Rights for the Police, places aspects of policing in the context of the new Bill of Rights. It is intended for training at an elementary level, but may also be of use to police officials at all levels.
