Abstract


Abstract. This study aims to analyze the implementation of investigations and inquiries into prostitution cases involving pimps within the scope of the Central Java Regional Police and to identify the obstacles and effectiveness of law enforcement. The research method used is an empirical legal approach, combining normative legal analysis with empirical studies in the field through interviews with law enforcement officers handling prostitution cases in Central Java. The results of the study indicate that pimps can be charged with Articles 296 and 506 of the Criminal Code, as well as Article 2 of Law Number 21 of 2007 concerning the Eradication of the Crime of Human Trafficking. The main obstacles in law enforcement include the lack of public reports, limited police resources, and the evolution of the modus operandi by using digital technology. Police efforts include raids, cyber patrols, and coordination with related agencies. More comprehensive policies and increased coordination between institutions are needed to effectively reduce the number of prostitution cases.
