Ord Cestus Security Force

The Ord Cestus Security Force, also known as the Ord Cestus Police Force, was the law enforcement agency responsible for maintaining order on the city-wide planet of Ord Cestus. It was in charge of conducting patrols, enforcing the law, protecting citizens, conducting criminal investigations and providing general security. The Security Force consisted of sentient officers of various species who wore gray uniforms which displayed their rank and the Ord Cestus police symbol on their left shoulder. They were armed with a blaster pistol and also carried a baton and stuncuffs. Police officers who were skilled in conducting criminal investigations were referred to as detectives.

To provide patrol coverage of the vast cityscape of Cestus, the Security Force relied heavily on the use of police droids, which were just as common as the sentient police. In particular, the PO-series police droid was utilized for patrol services, investigation support, detecting crimes and reporting them.
