Common crime refers to common criminal acts that frequently occur within communities, such as theft, robbery, assault, murder, fraud, and gambling. This phenomenon presents a serious problem in various regions of Indonesia, both in urban and rural areas. The occurrence of conventional crimes across different regions indicates that such crimes are complex and influenced by various factors such as economic, social, cultural, and technological conditions. Crime patterns may vary between regions, but all require adaptive countermeasures involving all elements of society and appropriate policy support from the government. This study discusses the role of the police, particularly the Ogan Ilir Regional Police (Polres Ogan Ilir), in tackling common crimes such as theft, assault, murder, and fraud. Using a qualitative approach, the study examines the implementation of the police’s three main strategies: preemptive, preventive, and repressive. The results show that Polres Ogan Ilir plays a significant role in combating common crime through these three approaches. The preemptive approach is carried out through legal counseling, community policing programs (Polmas), and collaboration with local governments to address root causes of crime. Activities such as patrols and outreach to teenagers are regularly conducted. The preventive approach includes patrolling high-risk areas, installing CCTV, conducting routine inspections, and implementing special measures like 24-hour patrols and securing public markets during events like Ramadan. Public advisories are also promoted to raise awareness. Meanwhile, the repressive approach is enforced through the apprehension of offenders and legal proceedings. These three approaches complement one another in creating public safety, with active community participation being a crucial component.
