PENGGUNAAN SARANA NONPENAL DALAM UPAYA PENCEGAHAN PEREDARAN NARKOBA MELALUI PERAIRAN KOTA TANJUNGPINANG

Abstract

In the criminal justice system, punishment is not an end in itself and is not the only way to achieve
criminal objectives or the purpose of the criminal justice system. The goal to be achieved with a punishment
is to improve the person and the criminal himself and to make people deterred. Judging from the economical
aspect of imprisonment, prison is not really efficient, it should not be applied. So if the penal law criminal
policy has not been able to provide a deterrent effect for the perpetrators of criminal acts of circulating
narcotics, it is necessary to apply non-criminal measures.
This study is a sociological or empirical research, namely the type of research that uses
community assumptions in looking for facts that occur in the field to answer an existing problem. This
research was conducted in the jurisdiction of the Riau Prosecutor's Office. While the population and sample
are parties related to the problems examined in this study, the data sources used, primary data, secondary
data, and tertiary data. The technique of collecting data in this study was through interviews and literature
review.
From the results of the study, the authors can conclude, first, the use of nonpenal facilities in
efforts to prevent drug trafficking in the Tanjungpinang waters law area is not effective due to the inhibiting
factors in carrying out their duties, especially facilities in the sea or waters so that law enforcement is not
optimal. The obstacles faced by the Bintan Resort Police in the prevention of drug trafficking using
nonpenal facilities are due to their strategic location, the number of rat ports, the vast area of the waters
and the lack of personnel from the Bintan Resort Police in carrying out their duties and infrastructure. The
efforts made by the Bintan Resort Police in overcoming barriers to preventing drug trafficking are to
coordinate with Satpolair which has facilities and infrastructure in sea or water lanes.
