- South_African_Police abstract "For the post-apartheid police force see South African Police Service.The South African Police (SAP) was the national police force in South Africa from 1913 to 1994; it was the de facto police force in the territory of South-West Africa (Namibia) from 1939 to 1981. After South Africa's transition to democracy in 1994, the SAP was reorganised into the South African Police Service.The South African Police was the successor to the police forces of the Cape Colony, the Natal Colony, the Orange River Colony, and the Transvaal Colony. It was formed in 1913 after the founding of the Union of South Africa in 1910. The SAP originally policed cities and urban areas, while the South African Mounted Riflemen, a branch of the Union Defence Force, upheld order in rural areas. During World War I, the SAP took over the Riflemen's jurisdiction, and most Riflemen personnel were transferred to the SAP by the end of the 1910s.In 1939, the SAP took over the South West African Police and became responsible for policing South West Africa, which was under South African administration at that time.Police officials often called on the army for support in emergencies. In turn, one SAP brigade served with the 2nd Infantry Division of the South African Army in North Africa during World War II.When the conservative National Party edged out liberal opponents in South Africa's elections in 1948, the new government enacted legislation strengthening the relationship between the police and the military. The police were heavily armed after that, especially when facing unruly or hostile crowds. The Police Act (No. 7) of 1958 broadened the mission of the SAP beyond conventional police functions, such as maintaining law and order and investigating and preventing crime, and gave the police extraordinary powers to quell unrest and to conduct counterinsurgency activities. The Police Amendment Act (No. 70) of 1965 empowered the police to search without warrant any person, receptacle, vehicle, aircraft, or premise within one mile of any national border and to seize anything found during such a search. This search-and-seize zone was extended to within eight miles of any border in 1979 and to the entire country in 1983.The SAP relinquished its responsibility for South West Africa in 1981. It took over the South African Railways Police Force in 1986.".
