Domestic violence remains one of the most prevalent forms of violence occurring within family environments and continues to pose a serious challenge to law enforcement and the protection of human rights in Indonesia. Domestic violence not only causes physical injuries but also results in psychological trauma, social suffering, and economic hardship for victims, particularly women and children. This study aims to analyze the factors causing domestic violence and examine the efforts undertaken by the Jayapura City Police in preventing and addressing domestic violence crimes. This research employed an empirical normative legal method with a descriptive qualitative approach. Primary data were obtained through interviews and field observations, while secondary data were collected through literature reviews and legal documents. The results indicate that domestic violence in the jurisdiction of Jayapura City Police is primarily caused by economic pressure, early marriage, psychological instability, and infidelity. Economic pressure was identified as the most dominant factor because financial difficulties often trigger household conflicts that eventually lead to violence. The Jayapura City Police have implemented preventive and repressive measures to address domestic violence. Preventive measures include legal counseling, public awareness campaigns, and community education programs, while repressive measures involve receiving reports, conducting investigations, collecting evidence, examining witnesses and victims, and forwarding cases to the public prosecutor. However, the implementation of these measures still faces several obstacles, including victims withdrawing complaints, difficulties in obtaining evidence, low public legal awareness, limited facilities and human resources, and victims’ dependency on perpetrators. Therefore, strengthening cooperation among law enforcement agencies, local governments, community leaders, and society is necessary to reduce domestic violence and improve legal protection for victims.
