Abstract

The illegal distribution and sale of alcoholic beverages remain prevalent in Bogor City. This condition indicates the necessity of the Civil Service Police Unit's role in the supervision and control of alcoholic beverage distribution, as outlined in Article 23, Paragraph (6) of Bogor Mayor Regulation Number 121 of 2022. The research problem in this study investigates the role of the Civil Service Police Unit in controlling and supervising the distribution and sale of alcoholic beverages, and the challenges encountered in performing these tasks. The research method used is empirical juridical, with a qualitative descriptive-analytical specification. Data collection was conducted through interviews, and the data was analyzed using qualitative juridical analysis. The research findings reveal the processes of supervision and control, as well as the challenges faced in regulating the distribution and sale of alcoholic beverages in Bogor City. The findings show that the Civil Service Police Unit exercises control and supervision over the distribution and sale of alcoholic beverages based on its attributive authority. The forms of control and supervision conducted by the Civil Service Police Unit include both preventive and repressive measures. The Civil Service Police Unit faces several challenges in performing supervision and control, particularly in direct supervision, which has not been fully optimized. Direct supervision, as part of the internal control mechanism, is hindered by issues such as leaks of raid information, difficulties in identifying illegal sale locations, and the misuse of permits by certain hotels and restaurants. External supervision, particularly through community oversight, also plays an important role. However, this form of supervision remains ineffective due to the continued purchase of alcoholic beverages without proper permits and the non-compliance of business owners with applicable regulations.
