Which of the following correctly identifies something not included in the LEO definition under ACT 1981?

• A. Police Officer
• B. Detective
• C. Security Officer
• D. Parole Officer

Answer: (C)

The question checks who is considered a law enforcement officer under ACT 1981. In this act, the term refers to individuals employed by a government agency with authority to enforce laws, make arrests, and protect the public. Police officers and detectives clearly fit this role as frontline law enforcement and investigative personnel. Parole officers are also included because they work within the corrections system and enforce conditions, often with arrest or enforcement authority as part of supervision. Private or security officers, on the other hand, are typically employed by private entities and do not have broad police powers or official government enforcement authority. They provide protection and security services, not general law enforcement. So the option that is not included is the Security Officer.
