Abstract

Throughout 2020, the Kuantan Singingi Police has taken action against 387 illegal gold mining criminals. This illustrates that illegal gold mining in Kuantan Singingi Regency is already alarming, especially for residents who live on the Kuantan Singingi River and do activities on the river flow. It is necessary to increase the capability and knowledge of police resources as well as the armies, especially insight into Indonesian law, which regulates Mining, in order to be able to supervise and overcome mining criminal acts of illegal gold. As the spearhead in law enforcement efforts against activities of illegal gold mining, the National Police and the armies have a very strategic position in main tasks, functions and authorities in carrying out investigations and investigating criminal acts in the mining sector.
