Abstract

The involvement of children as couriers in narcotics distribution networks presents a systemic problem in Indonesian criminal justice, where law enforcement has disproportionately targeted field-level perpetrators while failing to dismantle the economic structures controlled by intellectual actors. This research aims to analyze the normative disharmony between Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics, Law Number 8 of 2010 concerning the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering, and Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System, and to reconstruct a law enforcement model that integrates asset confiscation with restorative justice for exploited children. This research employs a normative legal methodology with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that existing regulations lack integration, resulting in the criminalization of child couriers without addressing the financial networks behind them. Money laundering instruments remain underutilized, and diversion mechanisms are often unavailable due to severe sentencing thresholds. The study proposes a reconstructed model that shifts the enforcement focus from "follow the suspect" to "follow the assets," positions children as victims of structural exploitation, and directs them toward restorative mechanisms. In conclusion, integrating asset confiscation against key actors with restorative diversion for children creates a fairer and more effective law enforcement system, ensuring that narcotics eradication targets network structures while safeguarding children's futures

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the regulation and implementation of police investigation supervision in the Indonesian criminal justice system, identify legal weaknesses that hinder the realization of accountable law enforcement, and formulate a concept for legal reform of investigative supervision based on legal certainty and justice. The study employed a normative juridical method with a statutory and conceptual approach. The results indicate that current investigative supervision still faces various problems, including disharmony of regulations in the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), the Police Law, and internal police regulations, limited authority of external supervisory institutions, weak independence of internal supervision, lack of integration of oversight mechanisms, and suboptimal use of technology in investigative supervision. These conditions have implications for continued abuse of authority, wrongful arrests, criminalization, non-transparent case terminations, and a high number of public complaints regarding the investigative process. Legal reform is needed through strengthening the authority of the National Police Commission (Komisi Nasional Polisi) as an independent supervisory institution, integrating internal and external supervision, implementing surveillance technology such as body-worn cameras and digital recordings of examinations, and establishing national standards for investigative accountability to achieve transparent, accountable, just, and legal certainty in law enforcement.
