The Function of Law Enforcement Intelligence Based on the Attorney General's Instruction Number 5 Of 2023 In Building the Legal Awareness of Rural Communities Through the Village Guard Program (Jaga Desa)

Abstract

Attorney General Instruction No. 5 of 2023 is a strategic policy of the Attorney General's Office of the Republic of Indonesia that emphasizes the optimization of law enforcement intelligence functions through the Village Guard Prosecutor Program (JAGA DESA). This program is aimed at building legal awareness among rural communities while preventing legal violations, particularly in the administration of government and management of village funds. This study aims to analyze the regulation and implementation of law enforcement intelligence functions based on Attorney General Instruction No. 5 of 2023 and to examine the implementation of the JAGA DESA Program as an instrument of the Attorney General's Office in building legal awareness among rural communities. The research method used is normative legal research with a regulatory and conceptual approach. The results of the study show that Attorney General Instruction No. 5 of 2023 normatively expands the role of the Attorney General's Office intelligence not only in the aspect of securing law enforcement but also in educational and preventive functions through village legal assistance. The JAGA DESA program is an important instrument in building a culture of legal awareness among rural communities through a persuasive approach and continuous guidance.
