<![CDATA[Restorative justice is crucial for Indonesian society today. The Indonesian National Police, as the executor of state government functions in law enforcement, in addition to providing protection, care, and service to the community, is expected to fulfill the public's demand for justice. Public expectations are high for the Indonesian National Police, as a law enforcement agency, which is authorized by law to conduct investigations into all criminal acts within the framework of law enforcement. This law enforcement is carried out in accordance with the National Police Chief's priority program, which promotes the concept of Transformation towards a Predictive, Responsive, and Transparent Police Force to achieve the objectives of the law. The public demands that National Police investigators understand their authority to take action against perpetrators of criminal acts during the investigation process based on the principle of achieving justice (Pro Justitia). This is a manifestation of a series of legal actions within the criminal justice system. Police investigators as law enforcers so that there is no doubt in taking action are given personal authority, based on Law Number 8 of 1981 concerning the Criminal Procedure Code Article 7 Paragraph (1) point j and Law Number 2 of 2002 concerning the National Police which is regulated in Article 16 paragraph (1) point 1 and Article 18, "can take other actions", with "certain conditions" which are called Police discretion. In carrying out their current duties and authority, with the development of the strategic environment of community demands to realize restorative justice as a solution to fulfill the community's sense of justice, Police investigators must be realistic in linking discretionary actions with restorative justice.]]>
