Abstract

The Human trafficking is a serious violation of human rights that remains a crucial issue in Indonesia. Although the government has passed Law Number 21 of 2007 concerning the Eradication of Human Trafficking (UU TPPO), the implementation of law enforcement still faces various challenges, such as weak coordination between institutions, limited resources, and low public awareness. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of law enforcement against TPPO, the obstacles faced by law enforcement officers, and the efforts that have been and can be made in overcoming this crime. Using the normative legal method, this study examines the prevailing laws and regulations and law enforcement practices. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the formation of policies and strategies for overcoming human trafficking in a comprehensive and sustainable manner.
