She served in the Metropolitan Police Service from 1971 to 1973. HistorySandhu was born in Zanzibar in 1943, before moving to Britain in 1962 and becoming a nurse.[1] She joined the Metropolitan Police Service on 1 February 1971, serving first in Hornsey, then in Walthamstow and Leyton.[2] Her date of joining made her the first female Asian police officer in the world, beating India's Kiran Bedi by just over one year.[3][4]{{Self-published inline|date=December 2017}} Sandhu died in the line of duty on 4 November 1973. Her husband did not agree with her becoming a police officer, and he had taken their two children to India. However, he returned to the UK and confronted her outside her house in Chelmsford Road, Walthamstow.[2] When her husband attacked her, she recalled herself to duty in order to arrest him, but he stabbed her in the neck. In March 1974 he was found guilty of her murder.[5] References1. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-12330579|title=Call to honour an Asian 'pioneer'|last=Neiyyar|first=Dil|date=2011-02-01|work=BBC News|access-date=2017-11-05|language=en-GB}} 2. ^1 {{Cite web|url=http://www.guardian-series.co.uk/news/8804149.HISTORY__Met_Police_marks_40th_anniversary_of_first_female_Asian_officer/|title=HISTORY: Met Police marks 40th anniversary of first female Asian officer|last=Hardy|first=Clare|date=|website=East London and West Essex Guardian Series|language=en|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2017-11-05}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/law-and-order/9024974/Life-as-an-ethnic-minority-police-officer.html|title=Life as an ethnic minority police officer|last=Llewellyn|first=Julia|date=2012|access-date=2017-11-05|language=en-GB|issn=0307-1235}} 4. ^{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=l5rVBgAAQBAJ&pg=PA15&lpg=PA15&dq=%22Karpal+Kaur+Sandhu%22&source=bl&ots=9o-lHVKAwf&sig=27Bu1ADF8EF-mzxvJMRe3fMO45I&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjjrrDVr6bXAhXDuRoKHZ7BDck4ChDoAQgtMAE#v=onepage&q=%22Karpal%20Kaur%20Sandhu%22&f=false|title=Women Police Unfurled in Pakistan: Perspective, Status and Prospective|last=Arain|first=Saima Manzoor|date=2014-06-22|publisher=Lulu.com|isbn=9781312276246|language=en}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.policememorial.org.uk/index.php?page=metropolitan-police|title=Police Roll of Honour Trust|last=|first=|date=|website=www.policememorial.org.uk|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2017-11-05}} 7 : Police officers|British Sikhs|1943 births|1973 deaths|Zanzibari people of Indian descent|Murder victims|British police officers killed in the line of duty |
