Abstract

Money laundering crimes (ML) are currently committed not only by individuals but also by corporations. The provisions of Money Laundering Crimes (MLC Law) regulate corporations, specifically Limited Liability Companies (PTs). However, since the enactment of MLC Law, only five legally binding rulings have involved corporations as perpetrators of ML offenses. In these rulings, there are several errors in the application of law. These errors include the fulfillment of the benefit element only being met when there is an increase in wealth, overlooking other circumstances such as a decrease in liabilities that the company must pay or use for its operations. Furthermore, in another ruling, the panel rejected the additional criminal charge of dissolving the corporation, with the legal reasoning that MLC Law does not regulate corporate dissolution. There are several rulings in which limited liability companies (PTs) were named as suspects but were ultimately found not guilty because the element of intent to conceal or disguise the origin of assets derived from criminal offenses was not fulfilled. This paper then compares several ML cases that occurred in the UK involving PTs, reflecting on some of these cases. In this paper, the author propose several ideas for the application of MLC Law, particularly for PTs involved in ML offenses. The methodology employed is doctrinal research. The paper emphasizes the necessity of optimizing sanctions against corporations that violate the MLC Law, not only in their capacity as perpetrators of money laundering but also for failing to fulfill obligations stipulated under the law.

Abstract

Corruption in Indonesia’s extractive industry has generated significant state revenue losses, regulatory distortions, and environmental harm. A key legal issue arises from the concurrent use of the Anti-Corruption Law and the Mineral and Coal Mining Law in addressing offenses within the sector, raising questions regarding legal certainty and the proper application of the lex specialis principle. This study examines the legal justification for applying the Anti-Corruption Law to mining-related offenses, analyzes judicial reasoning in relevant court decisions, and formulates a framework for criminal policy reconstruction. This research employs a normative legal method, combining statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. It critically analyzes legislative frameworks alongside selected judicial decisions to identify patterns of interpretation and enforcement. The study further situates these findings within theories of lex specialis, legal certainty, and utilitarian deterrence. The results demonstrate that the application of the Anti-Corruption Law is often justified by courts based on broader notions of state financial loss and deterrence objectives. However, this approach has led to interpretative inconsistencies, particularly in distinguishing between administrative violations under mining law and criminal acts qualifying as corruption. Such inconsistencies reflect an unresolved tension between sector-specific regulation and general anti-corruption enforcement. This study argues that the core issue lies not merely in normative overlap, but in the absence of clear doctrinal boundaries and coherent judicial standards. Accordingly, it proposes regulatory harmonization, strengthened interpretative guidelines, and an integrated criminal policy framework that combines penal, administrative, and restorative mechanisms to promote legal certainty, accountability, and sustainable governance in Indonesia’s extractive industry
