The regulation on criminal act in the placement of TKI in foreign countries only states that illegal individuals are prohibited to send TKI to foreign countries or illegal TKI is prohibited. The role of Polda Sumut investigators is to optimize the relationship among nations. The obstacles faced by Polda Sumut can be judicial and non-judicial. Some efforts are to increase preemptive, preventive, and repressive actions. It is recommended that Law No. 1/2006 on Mutual Legal Aid in Criminal Act should be optimized, the national interest principle of the Aid Requesting Countries should be prioritized to accelerate the process of law enforcement in the Aid Requesting Countries, and prevention should be more prioritized than eradication.
