Renowned Tactical Cop Neo Sedi Leaves SAPS for Midvaal Law Enforcement After Being Honoured for Going Beyond the Call of Duty in the Fight Against Crime

Former Constable Neo Sedi, a tactical trainer who recently made headlines for his work in combating crime while off duty, has left the South African Police Service (SAPS) to join Midvaal Local Municipality Law Enforcement. Sedi was recognised at the Sedibeng District Excellence Awards, where he received the District Commissioner’s Special Award for his exemplary and commendable service.

Sedi’s recognition followed an intelligence-driven operation on 31 July 2026, when he was an off-duty police official attached to the SAPS Human Resource Development Centre (HRDC) in Vereeniging. After receiving information about illicit ci******es at a specified premises in Vanderbijlpark, Sedi worked with the Special Security Group (SSG) High Risk Unit to execute the operation, resulting in the arrest of Steven Nhlapo.

During the operation, police seized eight sealed brown boxes containing illicit Re*****on Gold and Chief Blue ci******es. Each box contained approximately 500 packets of 20 ci******es, bringing the estimated total to 4,000 packets, or approximately 80,000 ci******es. Sedi joined SAPS in 2019, served at Zamdela Police Station and Sasolburg Public Order Policing before moving to Sedibeng K9.

Sedi later developed a passion for training and developing other police members after attending various in-service courses, including Tactical Policing, First Responder to Sexual Offences, Domestic Violence, Road Crime Crash First Responder, DNA Buccal Sampling and Drug Crime Investigation. He joined HRDC Vaalrand in 2025, where he trained members in fi***rm use, tactical policing and survival techniques before moving to Midvaal.
