Answer:

Mike will be prosecuted by a;

c. a public official

Step-by-step explanation:

To better answer the question we need to define some key terminologies;

1. Industrial park

An industrial park is an area that is set aside usually in a city for industrial development. Residential and commercial developments are not allowed in these zoned areas.

2. Prosecutor

A prosecutor is a legal representative of the prosecution. The prosecution is the legal team charged with the duty of presenting the case against someone accused of breaking the law.

3. Public official

A public official is any individual nominated or elected to represent the public through the state. Any person who holds a legislative, administrative or judicial post is a public official. They are usually charged with authority to handle certain duties.

In our case, Mike was arrested and charged with the crime of theft. The prosecutor has to be a public official who needs to represent the prosecution in presenting the case against the accused: in this case it's Mike who was accused of theft.
