Among those honoured in this year's National Day Awards are 10 Home Team frontline officers who were among the first to respond to last December’s Little India Riot.

The officers from the Singapore Police Force (SPF) and Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) were awarded the Commendation Medal today for their outstanding leadership and resolve.

Sergeant Khyrul Noor Redhza of SCDF, who was nearly crushed when he went under the bus to pull the body away from it after it was lifted, was among the recipients.

Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Jonathan Tang, who rallied his officers to provide security cover for the SCDF officers as they extricated the body of the accident victim, is also an awardee.
