PENEGAKAN HUKUM PENYIMPANGAN BANTUAN DANA SOSIAL DIKAITKAN DENGAN UNDANG-UNDANG NOMOR 20 TAHUN 2001 TENTANG PEMBERANTASAN TINDAK PIDANA KORUPSI DI KABUPATEN KARAWANG

Abstract

This research is motivated by the widespread irregularities in the distribution of social assistance funds (bansos) in Karawang Regency, such as manipulation of recipient data, unauthorized deductions, and fictitious recipients. This situation reflects weak oversight and accountability in the management of social funds, which has resulted in state losses and a decline in public trust in the local government. The purpose of this study is to analyze the implementation of law enforcement procedures for irregularities in the distribution of social funds and to identify factors influencing their effectiveness in the context of corruption. The method used is a normative juridical approach supported by empirical data through literature studies, legal documents, court decisions, and reports from supervisory institutions such as the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) and the Ombudsman. The results indicate that law enforcement in Karawang Regency is suboptimal due to weak inter-agency coordination, a lack of transparency in distribution, and low legal awareness. The dominant contributing factors include law enforcement officers, inconsistent implementation of regulations, and a permissive legal culture in society that favors corruption.
