The Directorate of General Criminal Investigation (Dittipidum) Bareskrim Polri has significantly boosted public trust in Polri to 79.2% through the cases it has uncovered. Several of these cases have garnered public attention.

Polri has achieved a public trust level of 79.2%. This result is based on a survey released by the Indonesia Development Monitoring (IDM) agency, quoted on Friday (8/5/2026).

The IDM survey used multistage random sampling methods, with data collection conducted from 7-20 April 2026. The survey involved 1,580 selected respondents across 34 provinces in Indonesia.

All respondents were aged between 17 and 65 years, comprising men and women selected randomly to represent the national population. The survey method was face-to-face. The margin of error for this survey is ±2.47%.

From the survey, 75.1% of public respondents are satisfied with Polri’s performance in eradicating gambling, human trafficking, narcotics, and hoarding of fuel and food.

The general criminal division has contributed to the increase in public trust in Polri through several cases. Here are the details:

• Investigation into the Solok Shooting Case

The Directorate of Criminal Investigation Bareskrim Polri (Ditreskrimum) in Subdirectorate I for State Security (Kamneg), Dittipidum Bareskrim Polri, demonstrated a commitment to professional and impartial law enforcement through the handling of the shooting case against the Head of Criminal Investigation at Solok Selatan Police Resort, AKP Ryanto Ulil Anshar, in West Sumatra.

In that case, investigators moved quickly to handle the legal proceedings against the suspect, who is an active Polri member. The Polri institution enforces the law objectively, transparently, and without tolerance for legal violations, including those committed by its own apparatus.

• Saving Land Assets Worth Rp 10.6 Trillion

Meanwhile, Subdirectorate II Harda Bangtah saved significant state assets through the uncovering of various land mafia cases and illegal seizure of state assets. One of them is the salvation of TNI-owned land assets in Jatikarya worth approximately Rp 10.6 trillion.

• Overseeing Law Enforcement at Hotel Sultan

In addition, Dittipidum Bareskrim Polri has successfully overseen law enforcement related to the seizure of state assets in the Hotel Sultan Jakarta area, which is located above the state assets of the Gelora Bung Karno area, with an estimated asset value exceeding Rp 100 trillion.

• Sea Fence Case in Kohod Village, Banten

Subdirectorate II also uncovered the sea fence case in Kohod Village, Tangerang Regency, Banten, which has attracted public attention. In that case, investigators found allegations of the use of fake documents for the application and issuance of land certificates over sea areas that, by regulation, cannot be certified.

The investigation was conducted through searches, seizures of land documents, forensic laboratory examinations, as well as analysis of electronic devices and documents used in the certificate issuance process.

• Way Kanan Cockfighting Gambling Case

In Subdirectorate III Jatanras, Dittipidum Bareskrim Polri continues to strengthen the eradication of conventional gambling as well as online gambling that disturbs society. In addition to taking action against cross-regional online gambling networks, Subdit III also provided assistance and supervision for the uncovering of the cockfighting gambling case in Way Kanan, Lampung, which has become a national concern.
