ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE WORKING PROCEDURES OF THE PUBLIC RELATIONS DIVISION AND THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION OF THE INDONESIAN NATIONAL POLICE BASED ON POLICE REGULATION NUMBER 3 OF 2018 IN PUBLIC INFORMATION SERVICES

Pasal 3fi Ayat 1 Undang-Undang Dasar 19fi5 Constitution
emphasizes the state’s obligation to be present in society’s life. Ľhis presence underscores that the state must ensure that every citizen or member of society receives their rightful rights without discrimination. Ľhe process of legal assistance can be accessed directly by the public through interaction with legal aid professionals. According to Pasal 22 Ayat 1 Undang-Undang Nomor 18 Ľahun 2003, lawyers are obliged to provide Pro Bono legal assistance to seekers of justice who are unable to afford it. Ľhis led to the creation of Government Regulation Number 83 of 2008 concerning the Requirements and Procedures for Providing Pro Bono Legal Assistance. Pro Bono legal assistance is accessible for criminal, civil, administrative, military, and non-litigation cases. The assumption that dispute resolution, whether through litigation or non-litigation, requires substantial costs makesthe public apprehensive about engaging with the legal system.Ľhis phenomenon particularly disadvantages the financially challenged, and the significant need for legal aid further highlightsthat many vulnerable individuals lack access to legal support. Capitalism presents its own issue, as its presence can impact not only the economy but also other social structures (Laoda Ida, 2010). Ľhe enforcement of the law weakens when faced with power arrogance, causing the state to lose its standing in society due to power being influenced by capital owners. Mahatma Gandhiargues that democracy should ensure equal opportunities for the weak and the strong (Mahatma Gandhi, 2016), emphasizing equal rights within a democratic system and stressing the need for fair access
to justice.
