Special Enforcement Officers (SEOs) were elite police officers generally recruited from the ranks of the Sector Rangers. They had wider arrest and detention powers which allowed them to cross sector boundaries in pursuit of a criminal. SEOs were generally experts at investigations, interrogation, and tracking and were remarkably observant. They were also characteristically highly intelligent and had a breadth of knowledge on a variety of topics. SEOs typically conducted undercover operations or investigated high profile cases and they were more independent than the regular Sector Rangers. Notable SEOs included Zanza Gata, a highly skilled inspector, and Narra Mesyne who conducted deep undercover operations.
