This study examines the effectiveness of resolving minor assault offences through a restorative justice approach at the police level based on Indonesian National Police Regulation Number 8 of 2021. Using normative legal research with statutory and case approaches, the study found that the process involves receiving reports, conducting inquiries, examining witnesses and suspects, offering restorative justice, facilitating mediation between victims and offenders, and terminating the investigation after a peace agreement and withdrawal of the report. The process is supported by the parties’ willingness to reconcile, family relationships, and fulfilment of victims’ rights, while failure is mainly caused by ego, long-standing resentment, and unrealistic compensation demands. When restorative justice fails, the case proceeds through the ordinary criminal process, revealing normative disharmony among police, prosecutorial, and judicial regulations. Therefore, the study recommends regulatory harmonisation and stronger supervision mechanisms.
