Peran Unit Samapta Dalam Pengendalian Massa dan Pengamanan Wilayah Untuk Penegakan Hukum dan Perlindungan Ketertiban Umum
Abstract
This study examines the role of the Samapta Unit in crowd control and area security as part of law enforcement efforts and the protection of public order, with Gedeg Sector Police serving as the context for the application of legal norms. This study aims to analyze the legal framework governing the role of the Samapta Unit and to examine the legal position, role, and limitations of the actions of the Samapta Unit at Gedeg Sector Police in crowd control and area security from the perspective of police law. This study employs normative legal research using statutory and conceptual approaches. The legal materials consist of primary legal materials in the form of laws and regulations, secondary legal materials including books, scientific journals, research findings, and expert opinions, as well as tertiary legal materials. The legal materials were collected through library research and analyzed qualitatively using legal interpretation and deductive reasoning. The findings indicate that the Samapta Unit has a strategic position in carrying out preventive policing functions through crowd control, patrols, guard duties, and area security. The exercise of these powers must adhere to the principles of legality, professionalism, proportionality, necessity, and accountability to ensure that police actions remain within the limits of lawful authority and provide protection to the public. Strengthening operational guidelines, personnel professionalism, institutional coordination, and accountability mechanisms is necessary to support the effective and measured implementation of the Samapta Unit's functions in accordance with the principles of law enforcement and public order protection.
