This study uses a normative juridical method with a case study approach, involving analysis of primary and secondary data in the form of interviews with investigators, literature reviews, and document studies related to check fraud cases in the jurisdiction of the Barelang Police. The results of the study show that investigators have a crucial role in handling fraud cases through cheque securities, starting from receiving reports and complaints, collecting and securing evidence, to preparing case files for prosecution. However, there are several obstacles that reduce the effectiveness of investigations, such as lack of resources, lack of specialization in financial crimes, and limited access to information. To overcome these obstacles, this study provides several recommendations, including increasing the capacity and expertise of investigators through ongoing training, increasing budgets and technological resources, and strengthening cooperation between investigators and other financial institutions and law enforcement. The suggestions put forward in this study are that police investigators should improve internal and external coordination to speed up the investigation process, other law enforcers such as prosecutors and judges should increase collaboration with investigators to ensure a fair and transparent judicial process, and the public, especially victims of cheque fraud, should be educated on the steps to be taken when becoming victims of fraud. With the implementation of this recommendation, it is hoped that the handling of fraud cases through check securities can be more effective and public trust in the justice system can increase.

This work intends to perceive how those public institutions can evaluate and select their candidates efficiently during the different phases of the recruitment process. To achieve this purpose, artificial intelligence (AI) was studied. This paper aims to focus on analysing the AI technologies most used and appropriate to the PF as a complementary recruitment strategy of the National Criminal Investigation police agency of Portugal – Polícia Judiciária.Design/methodology/approachUsing design science research as a methodological approach, the authors suggest a theoretical framework in pair with the segmentation of the candidates and comprehend the most important facts facing public institutions regarding the usage of AI technologies to make decisions about evaluating and selecting candidates. Following the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses methodology guidelines, a systematic literature review and meta-analyses method was adopted to identify how the usage and exploitation of transparent AI positively impact the recruitment process of a public institution, resulting in an analysis of 34 papers between 2017 and 2021.FindingsResults suggest that the conceptual pairing of evaluation and selection problems of candidates who apply to PC with applicable AI technology such as K-means, hierarchical clustering, artificial neural network and convolutional neural network algorithms can support the recruitment process and could help reduce the workload in the entire process while maintaining the standard of responsibility. The combination of AI and human decision-making is a fair, objective and unbiased process emphasising a decision-making process free of nepotism and favouritism when carefully developed. Innovative and modern as a category, group the statements that emphasise the innovative and contemporary nature of the process.Research limitations/implicationsThere are two main limitations in this study that should be considered. Firstly, the difficulty regarding the timetable, privacy and legal issues associated with public institutions. Secondly, a small group of experts served as the validation group for the new framework. Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted to alleviate this constraint. They provide additional insights into an interviewee’s opinions and beliefs.Social implicationsEnsure that the system is fair, transparent and facilitates their application process.Originality/valueThe main contribution is the AI-based theoretical framework, applicable within the analysis of literature papers, focusing on the problem of how the institutions can gain insights about their candidates while profiling them, how to obtain more accurate information from the interview phase and how to reach a more rigorous assessment of their emotional intelligence providing a better alignment of moral values. This work aims to improve the decision-making process of a PF institution recruiter by turning it into a more automated and evidence-based decision when recruiting an adequate candidate for the job vacancy.
