What is Undercover?
{{wiktionary}} Being '''undercover''' means that a person is wearing normal [[clothing]] and is hiding their identity from people. It is often used by [[police officer]]s when they are [[wikt:investigation|investigating]] [[crime]]s or [[wikt:criminal|criminal]]s. It is done to gain trust and also possibly to gather [[evidence]]. It is not the same as a police officer who is wearing normal clothing (a '''plain-clothes''' officer) but who is not hiding their real name and that they are a police officer. ==Related pages== *[[Secret police]] {{stub}} [[Category:Criminal investigation]]
