The police will increase deployment for the national elections.
The eThekwini district has 164 high-risk voting stations, with a deployment of 984 police officers.
The police say it is all "boots on the ground" for this week's national elections - but additional deployment is likely to come at a cost to the taxpayer.
News24 previously reported that, in the eThekwini district, there were 164 high-risk voting stations, with a deployment of 984 police officers.
eThekwini was followed by the Amajuba area with the second-highest, high-risk voting stations, at 19.
