Abstract

At present, gambling is in an alarming stage. The development of gambling is getting faster and more varied, although the crime of gambling is a prohibited activity and is subject to sanctions, this crime is difficult to eradicate. In connection with the mentality of the community to pursue material in a fast and easy way, so choosing gambling is used as an alternative. Overcoming the crime of gambling must be done with repressive and preventive efforts that run in balance. Gambling is considered normal in society, so counselling needs to be done and a deterrent effect is needed for perpetrators and a fear effect is needed. In the criminal justice system, the police are gatekeepers, so they have a central role in overcoming gambling. The criminal justice system starts from the Police, so preventive and repressive efforts are needed to tackle the crime of gambling.
