Abstract

Klitih is a form of juvenile delinquency by fighting, throwing stones, injuring and even killing victims in Yogyakarta. Various attempts have been made by the government, educational institutions and the police to overcome them. This paper discusses the strategy of Geng Klithih in avoiding police capture. The substance of this study uses Husserl's phenomenological design. Data was collected by observation and interview and data analysis techniques consist of reduction of the data (data reduction), presentation of data (data display) and conclusion (verifying conclution). Data analysis was examined using the interpretive perspective of George Herbert Mead. The study found six important things done by the Klithih gang in avoiding police catches, namely 1) acting at night, 2) finding a quiet place, 3) using accessories, 4) removing the number plate on the motorcycle to avoid capturing CCTV, 5 ) memorizing terrain and 6) building gang solidarity. This research recommendation is given to the community, educational institutions and the police so that efforts are made to deal with clerical action.
