520			_aIn today's society policing is conducted not just by those people commonly referred to as 'police 'but by a host of private and non-government operatives. There is now a rapid trend of privatisation of police services. This is a trend which is changing the law enforcement landscape. Finding the state policing inadequate and ineffective, many individuals as well as establishments have gone to agencies for personal security problems. Moreover, as government has sought to withdraw from many areas of their traditional law and order functions, private bodies have assumed an important role. However, the phenomenon of private policing has raised some significant ethical and legal concerns. This article seeks to discuss and analyse 'private policing', an emerging trend in the era of dual law enforcement which is all set to expand with the ongoing changes in society and governance. Given the long standing neglect of private-policing the article is preliminary and exploratory. It aims not to exhaust a subject of study, but to begin one. - Reproduced.
