Abstract

The application of restorative justice in resolving criminal offenses has drawn mixed public reactions. Most people welcomed the policy positively, as it is considered capable of restoring social relations damaged by crime and prioritizing humanitarian values and social balance. This concept offers an alternative case resolution that focuses more on restoring the original state than on retaliation. Currently, provisions related to restorative justice are regulated by various police agencies, including Police Regulation Number 8 of 2021, Prosecutor's Office Regulation Number 15 of 2020, and Supreme Court Regulation Number 1 of 2024. However, differences in regulations regarding the definition, scope, procedures, and implementation of restorative justice in  each  institution  create  legal  disharmony  and  can  reduce  its effectiveness  in  practice.  Therefore,  comprehensive,  integrated,  and binding regulations in the form of legislation are needed, such as those stipulated in Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Justice System.  These  regulations  are  expected  to  ensure  the  harmonious implementation of restorative justice, guarantee legal certainty, and create  a  justice  system  that  aims  to  balance  between  victims  and perpetrators, and to achieve justice that balances between victims, perpetrators and society as a whole, and to strengthen public trust in a fairer criminal justice system.
