Abstract

This study aims to analyze the regulation of absolute complaints for domestic violence crimes (KDRT) in the New Criminal Code and its implementation in the jurisdiction of the Pinrang Police. The research uses empirical juridical methods with a legislative approach, a case approach, and a sociological approach. Data was obtained through interviews with investigators of the Pinrang Police PPA Unit and Pinrang District Court Judges as well as case document studies. It was found that the placement of violence within the scope of marriage as an absolute complaint offense through Article 473 paragraph (6) of the New Criminal Code was followed by a decrease in the number of domestic violence reports, as well as giving rise to new obstacles in the form of pressure on victims to withdraw complaints before the case is completed. This study is one of the initial studies on the work of the provisions of the absolute complaint of domestic violence in the New Criminal Code in the South Sulawesi region.

Abstract

The rapid development of social media as a digital space has provided broader opportunities for individuals to express opinions and disseminate information publicly. Freedom of expression in the digital sphere is a right protected by law; however, its exercise must be accompanied by compliance with legal obligations and regulatory limitations. This study aims to analyze the role of law in protecting the right to freedom of expression in digital spaces and in maintaining a balance between the rights and obligations of social media users. This research employs a normative juridical method using statutory and conceptual approaches. Data were collected through library research by examining laws and regulations, legal doctrines, and relevant scholarly literature. The findings indicate that law functions as an instrument of social control that regulates the boundaries of freedom of expression while providing legal certainty for social media users. Nevertheless, challenges remain in the implementation of legal protection, including ambiguity in legal interpretation and the rapid advancement of digital technology that outpaces regulatory development. Therefore, strengthening the role of law through regulatory refinement and proportional law enforcement is essential to ensure an orderly and responsible digital space.
