Abstract

The aim of this research is to examine and analyze police procedures in terminating investigations into minor crimes as a form of restorative justice. In this writing the author uses a normative juridical method with research specifications in the form of descriptive analysis. The authority of the National Police to stop investigations only based on non-criminal reasons; insufficient evidence; or by law. The National Police is not given the authority to stop cases on the grounds that they were resolved out of court or set aside cases for certain considerations or resolve cases using a restorative justice approach. Such conditions have made the National Police leadership take internal policy steps based on awareness of the importance of the concept of restorative justice as the soul and personality (volkgeist) of Indonesian society. The National Police took a step further with the promulgation of the Perpol. No. 8 of 2021 concerning Handling of Criminal Acts Based on Restorative Justice, in the provisions of this Perpol there are several requirements that must be fulfilled in the handling mechanism based on restorative justice.
