@mikichin0226 "which" is a relative pronoun that in this case is referring to the laws. Which laws are they? Laws that the policeman disapproves of (as a private citizen). "of" is a preposition that is used here before the relative pronoun instead of towards the end or at the end of the relative clause. You could reword the sentence like follows.
A policeman may have to enforce laws which he disapproves of as a private citizen.
A policeman may have to enforce laws which he as a private citizen disapproves of.

The "of" isn't tied to the relative pronoun "which", it's tied to "disapproves". We often say things like this in English.
I disapprove OF that.
She disapproves OF my girlfriend
They disapprove OF us doing this.
