The Polri Reform Acceleration Commission submitted its 7-volume report to President Prabowo Subianto at Istana Merdeka, Jakarta. The report contains 6 key recommendations for Polri reform, including revising the Polri Law. The president approved strengthening Kompolnas and limiting Polri positions outside the institution.
The Polri Reform Acceleration Commission (KPRP) submitted its work results to President Prabowo Subianto on Tuesday, May 5, 2026, at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta. The report was presented in 7 volumes of about 3,000 pages, which the president has read. Commission member Yusril Ihza Mahendra stated, "Kami sebenarnya telah menyerahkan ada 7 jilid buku, kepada pak presiden mungkin sekitar 3 ribu halaman."
The report produced 6 main recommendations. Among them, Polri remains directly under the president without a new ministry, with strengthened Kompolnas mandate as external oversight. Commission chair Jimly Asshiddiqie said the president approved strengthening Kompolnas to make its decisions binding and membership independent, regulated in law.
Other recommendations include limiting Polri members' positions outside the institution, similar to the TNI Law, and abolishing special recruitment quotas involving payments. Jimly stated, “Mengenai pengaturan pembatasan mengenai jabatan yang dapat diduduki oleh polri di luar struktur kepolisian, nah, jadi tadi diputuskan oleh bapak presiden harus ditentukan secara limitatif.” Former Deputy National Police Chief Ahmad Dofiri added recruitment will involve multi-stakeholders from outside Polri.
The commission recommended revising the Polri Law as the legal umbrella, followed by Government Regulations, Presidential Regulations, and Instructions for directives to the National Police Chief. The commission's duties officially ended after submitting the report completed in three months.
