Rory Steyn is Nelson Mandela's former chief of security. He also served as the security liaison for the New Zealand All Blacks during the 1995 Rugby World Cup.[1]

In 2001, Steyn published a memoir, One Step Behind Mandela: The Story of Rory Steyn, Nelson Mandela's Chief Bodyguard, co-authored with Debora Patta.[2] In the memoir he claims that the All Blacks had "definitely been poisoned" before the 1995 Rugby World Cup Final, becoming the first high-profile South African to acknowledge any wrongdoing.[3]
