(Implementasi Kebijakan Penyidikan Tindak Pidana Pencucian Uang dengan Pidana Asal Tindak Pidana dibidang Perpajakan di Direktorat Jenderal Pajak)
The widespread occurrence of tax-related criminal offenses committed by taxpayers has resulted in substantial losses to state revenue. In response, the Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) has adopted the policy of investigating money laundering offenses as an instrument to create deterrence and fear effects for non-compliant taxpayers, while simultaneously safeguarding state revenue losses arising from tax crimes. This study aims to examine and analyze the implementation of the money laundering investigation policy at the Directorate General of Taxes and to assess its impact on the recovery of losses to state revenue. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method using goal-oriented, source-based, and process-based approaches. Data were collected through literature review, in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation analysis. The findings reveal that the implementation of the money laundering investigation policy at the Directorate General of Taxes is consistent with policy implementation theory, as it demonstrates the presence of clear policy objectives, implementation activities, measurable outcomes, and post-implementation evaluation. However, from the perspective of the number of cases handled and the value of recovered state revenue, the impact of money laundering investigations has not yet been significant. This condition arises because perpetrators of tax crimes tend to prefer restorative justice settlement mechanisms by restoring state revenue losses along with administrative sanctions, thereby avoiding exposure to money laundering investigations. Nevertheless, money laundering investigations remain strategically important as a deterrence mechanism that encourages compliance and supports the recovery of state revenue.
