Abstract

The objective of the research is to identify the causal factors of drug abuse and the preventive effort done by the police. The research was done by analyzing the laws about drugs and by interviewing police officers in Magelang Police Resort. The result showed that in 2019, there was an increase of drug abuse in Magelang that was caused by individual, family, and environment factors. The efforts done by the police in preventing and overcoming narcotics abuse were including: 1) Establishing a narcotics-free village in Magelang City, in collaboration with the National Unity, Politics and Community Protection Agency (Kesbangpolimas) of Magelang City; 2) Counseling on the Prevention and Eradication of Narcotics Illegal Distribution (P4GN) which is conducted twice a month at the subdistrict level in Magelang; 3) Socializing the dangers of narcotics abuse in several government agencies and schools in Magelang; 4) Conducting urine test checks on bus drivers or at entertainment venues or boarding houses and hotels, which are often used for narcotics abuse and illegal trafficking in Magelang; 5) Rehabilitating the narcotics addicts in mental hospitals.
