The Community Disease Operation (Pekat) and the implementation of two-wheeled mass dispersal patrols within the jurisdiction of the Badung Police are expected to increase police presence in the community and limit opportunities for criminal activities. Patrol implementation is guided by Police Regulation Number 1 of 2017 concerning Patrols, while the enforcement of theft offenses is based on Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the KUHP. This research employs an empirical legal research method. The results show that the effectiveness of two-wheeled mass dispersal patrols conducted by the Samapta Unit in preventing aggravated theft has not been fully optimal due to constraints related to limited personnel, facilities and infrastructure, utilization of technology, and low community participation.
