Abstract
The National Police Regulation of the Republic
of Indonesia (PERPOL) No. 7 of 2022 regulates the Professional Code of Ethics
and the Police Code of Ethics Commission (KKEP), where the decision of the KKEP
is final but still depends on the approval of its forming official (Kapolda).
This creates potential inconsistencies in the execution of the verdict and
allows the revocation of sentences that contradict the disciplinary rules of
the National Police. This study aims to analyze the suitability of the
revocation of the Dismissal Decision Without Respect (PTDH) for members of the
National Police in the Aceh Regional Police with laws and regulations, and
assess the application of the principles of Good Policing Governance in the
process. The method used is normative legal research with a legislative
approach. The results of the study show that the revocation of PTDH in the Aceh
Regional Police requires independent supervision to avoid personal or political
interests. The Aceh Police Chief revoked PTDH without paying attention to the
applicable legal provisions, thus causing legal uncertainty and indications of
abuse of authority. In addition, the cancellation of PTDH outside the
established authority reflects a failure in the application of the principles
of good policing governance, especially in the aspects of transparency,
accountability, and justice. It is recommended that the revocation of PTDH be
carried out with an independent supervision mechanism, increased evaluation of
members of the National Police before revocation, and the provision of clearer
guidelines regarding the criteria for revocation of PTDH. Thus, this process
can be more fair, accountable, and in accordance with the applicable legal
rules.
