imprisonment and/or fines.
This sanction also applies to perpetrators of crimes in the context of online gambling that violate the provisions of the ITE Law.
In addition, the ITE Law also regulates the obligations of electronic system organizers to prevent illegal access and activities in
electronic transactions, including online gambling. Article 18 paragraph (2) of the ITE Law stipulates that the organizers of the
system must take technical and/or non-technical steps to prevent and delete information that is prohibited by law. The criminal
threat to perpetrators of online gambling crimes is regulated in several articles of the ITE Law, such as Article 27 paragraph (2),
which states that distributing, transmitting, or creating electronic information or documents containing elements of gambling can
be subject to a maximum prison sentence of 6 years and/or a maximum fine of IDR 1 billion. In practice, these criminal sanctions
can vary depending on the case and the level of violation that occurs. However, these sanctions are expected to provide a
preventive and deterrent effect for perpetrators and prevent illegal activities in electronic transactions, including online gambling.
Resources of the Dittipidsiber in Handling Online Gambling Currently
The implementation of the main tasks and functions of the police is currently a part that often gets attention from the public. One
of the instruments in measuring the quality of Polri performance is public trust. The professionalism of Polri members in
providing services to the public is the foundation for building public trust. There are several survey institutions in Indonesia that
periodically continue to conduct research on the level of public trust in government institutions or agencies including the Polri,
one of which is the Indonesian Political Indicator which states that the level of public trust in the Polri tends to fluctuate. Where
based on the results of a survey conducted by the Indonesian Political Indicator in 2021 nationally, it stated that the Polri
experienced an increase in public trust to 80.2 percent, where this figure is the highest in the past eight years. According to the
Executive Director of the Indonesian Political Indicator, the new leadership in the Polri institution has had a good impact on the
image of the Polri in the eyes of the public, where there have been several performance breakthroughs initiated by the Chief of
Police which contributed to the increase in public trust. However, the level of public trust in the Polri has decreased and is at 54.2
percent, occupying the last position when compared to other law enforcement agencies such as the Attorney General's Office and
the Corruption Eradication Committee. When compared to the results of the previous year's survey, there was a fairly sharp
decline due to various factors, including violations committed by certain members and attracting public attention so that the
performance of the police was again highlighted by the public. However, in 2023, the results of a survey by Indikator Politik
Indonesia showed that the level of public trust in the Police had increased again to 70.8 percent in the last few months. This
condition was certainly influenced by the assertiveness of the Polri leadership in making improvements to the internal institution.
However, this figure is still behind when compared to other institutions such as the TNI as the institution most trusted by the
public. Trust will not come suddenly but needs to be built together by every element in a community, as well as in the Polri
institution, where trust needs to be built through a shared vision and commitment, especially in carrying out the main tasks and
functions of the police. Furthermore, Indikator Politik Indonesia conducted a survey of public expectations for the Polri so that
the Polri can become an institution trusted by the public. The five hopes of the community that were successfully collected by
Indikator Politik Indonesia are first for the police to improve their performance and professionalism, second is to protect and
provide a sense of security to the community, third is to be fair in enforcing the law, fourth is to be a trustworthy, honest and firm
institution and fifth can protect the community. With the high hopes of the community for the implementation of police duties, it
is hoped that it can maintain public trust in the Police who are more professional and have integrity in carrying out their duties.
The high demands and expectations of the community for police performance are also accompanied by developments in the era of
the industrial revolution 4.0, where digital technology is developing rapidly and has the potential to transform the way the police
work from what was originally done conventionally to automation. To manage and utilize this digital technology, a process and
learning are needed so that the resources owned by the Police are ready to face various challenges in the era of the industrial
revolution 4.0. The collaboration process is one of the efforts that can be made by the Police to accelerate the transformation in
the police. There are four main policies in the transformation of the Precision Police, one of which is the transformation of public
services. The policy in the transformation of public services aims to change the culture in the Police environment, especially in
building a culture of hard work, productivity, strengthening an anti-corruption culture, and increasing innovation in public
services based on information technology.
Technological advances are rapidly growing into tools that can help complete human work automatically, quickly, intelligently
and precisely. This is also utilized in accelerating and supporting the law enforcement process, police public services and security
in society, one of which is in handling online gambling crimes in Indonesia. Polri personnel in digital policing are those who are
experts and have special knowledge in various fields of information technology as stated by Wibowo [9], such as data analysis,
digital forensics to cybersecurity. Digital policing is a development of the existing polmas concept, its development is focused on
the media used in conveying public order messages to the community which were originally carried out conventionally and then
changed to online. With the rapid development of technology, the field of digital policing will also develop to become more
complex and challenging. For this reason, it is important for law enforcement agencies including the Polri, especially the
Dittipidsiber Bareskrim Polri to continue to follow new developments and become more flexible and adaptive in optimizing
policing in handling online gambling in Indonesia..
To overcome the development of online gambling crimes, the Dittipidsiber as a function that is prioritized in combating online
gambling crimes has implemented a number of law enforcement measures. The general description of the organizational
resources of the Dittipidsiber, will be described as follows:
