Lieut Jeanett Govender, WO Kobus Karsten, WO Nico Deetlefs and Capt Darren Bekker put together a wonderful interactive display of the tools needed for a forensic investigation to take place.

The day formed part of the Cell C Take a Girl Child to Work Day events and the girls were given information about the various careers available to them in the police force.
