Abstract

The enforcement of corruption crimes in Indonesia faces issues of overlapping authority among Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi KPK), Kejaksaan Agung Republik Indonesia, and Kepolisian Republik Indonesia, which negatively affects the effectiveness of investigation, inquiry, and prosecution processes. This study employs a normative juridical method through a literature-based review of legislation and legal references to analyze the disharmony of authority and its implications for law enforcement practices. The discussion shows that overlapping authority among law enforcement institutions triggers conflicts, delays case handling, and creates opportunities for political intervention and legal uncertainty, particularly after the enactment of Law No. 19 of 2019, which altered the independence of the KPK. This study concludes that a reconstruction of authority is necessary through the revision of the Anti-Corruption Law and the strengthening of coordination, supervision, and integrated division of authority to ensure more effective, synergistic, and legally certain handling of corruption cases.
