Abstract

The crime of rape is one of the serious violations of human rights that requires effective and fair legal handling. In Indonesia, the crime of rape is regulated in the Criminal Code (KUHP) which applies nationally, as well as the Qanun Jinayat in Aceh, as an implementation of Islamic law. This study aims to analyze existing regulations related to the crime of rape in Indonesia, and to explore the potential for the application of restorative justice in handling rape cases. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, where the researcher acts as the main instrument in collecting and analyzing data. This approach aims to explore more deeply the differences in regulations between the Criminal Code and Qanun Jinayat, and to assess their impact on the legal process and the welfare of victims. The results of the study indicate that although both regulations are firm in providing sanctions for perpetrators of rape, there are still weaknesses in protecting victims, especially in terms of mental and social recovery. Therefore, the application of restorative justice is considered important to involve victims and perpetrators in a more humane resolution process, with the aim of restoring social balance and providing opportunities for victims to recover. This study concludes that there needs to be a reform in the justice system that pays more attention to aspects of justice for victims, by combining legal sanctions and a restorative approach.

Abstract

Criminalization within the concept of Non-Conviction Based Asset Forfeiture (NCBAF) plays a crucial role in efforts to combat corruption. This study aims to analyze the implementation of NCBAF in the context of Islamic criminal law, particularly regarding the confiscation of assets obtained from criminal acts without requiring the direct prosecution of perpetrators. This research employs a normative legal method (juridical normative) with a statute approach and a conceptual approach to examine the legal basis, effectiveness, and challenges of NCBAF. The findings reveal that NCBAF offers substantial advantages over conventional criminal justice systems, as it enables the recovery of unlawfully acquired assets without the need for a lengthy trial process. This approach accelerates asset recovery, reduces the risk of legal loopholes exploited by corrupt individuals, and enhances the efficiency of anti-corruption efforts. In Indonesia, the adoption of NCBAF can significantly strengthen corruption eradication policies, provided that sufficient legal and institutional frameworks are in place. From an Islamic legal perspective, NCBAF aligns with fundamental principles of justice, accountability, and property protection. Islamic law upholds the prohibition of illicit wealth and mandates the restitution of unlawfully obtained assets to rightful owners or the public interest. Therefore, the application of NCBAF is not only legally justified but also ethically and religiously endorsed within Islamic jurisprudence. By integrating NCBAF into anti-corruption strategies, Indonesia can reinforce its commitment to justice and economic integrity while ensuring the protection of state assets from illicit enrichment.

Abstract

The absorption of Islamic law into national law in Indonesia is the result of a compromise between sharia principles and the prevailing positive legal system. One form of this is Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), which regulates the legal aspects of marriage for Muslims. However, the implementation of these two regulations in various regions show variations, especially in determining the rights and obligations of husband and wife, including in terms of joint property. Cultural diversity and different legal interpretations often affect the application of this law, so an in-depth analysis is needed regarding the extent to which Islamic law has been absorbed into national law. This study aims to examine the implementation of Law No. 1 of 1974 and KHI in the context of Islamic marriage law, with a focus on the dynamics of the application of joint property. This study uses a qualitative method with a statute approach, a case approach, a comparative approach, and a conceptual approach. The results of the study show that although Islamic law has been accommodated in the national legal system, its application still faces challenges, especially related to differences in interpretation by judges and the community in judicial practice. In addition, social and cultural factors also influence the implementation of provisions regarding joint property in marriage. In conclusion, although Law No. 1 of 1974 and the KHI have adopted the principles of Islamic law, harmonization and uniformity of application are still challenges that need further attention to create better legal certainty.

Abstract

Corruption is an extraordinary crime that harms state finances and hinders national development. One of the main strategies in eradicating corruption is the confiscation of assets resulting from criminal acts to recover state losses. However, the implementation of asset confiscation in Indonesia still faces various obstacles, including ineffective regulations, complicated legal procedures, and weak coordination between law enforcement agencies. This study analyzes the main obstacles in the implementation of asset confiscation based on positive law and Islamic law and formulates a legal reconstruction that can increase the effectiveness of asset recovery from corruption. This study uses a normative legal method with a descriptive-analytical approach, comparing applicable regulations and their implementation in Indonesia. The results of the study indicate that asset confiscation is not optimal due to the difficulty of proving the origin of assets, the use of third parties in hiding assets, and the absence of a Non-Conviction Based Asset Forfeiture (NCB) mechanism. From an Islamic legal perspective, confiscation of assets resulting from crime is in line with the principles of justice and welfare, as emphasized in QS. Al-Baqarah: 188 and the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad SAW which requires the return of property resulting from injustice. As a recommendation, this study proposes the implementation of the NCB mechanism, strengthening international cooperation in asset tracking, reforming evidence by shifting the burden of proof, and optimizing the management of confiscated assets for the public interest according to the principle of maslahah in Islamic law. With this approach, it is hoped that asset confiscation can become a more effective instrument in eradicating corruption and restoring state finances.

Abstract

The Restorative Justice (RJ) approach in juvenile criminal law is a paradigm that is oriented towards the restoration, reconciliation, and rehabilitation of children in conflict with the law. Unlike the retributive justice system which emphasizes punishment, RJ aims to restore social balance through deliberation between the perpetrator, victim, and community. In Indonesia, the RJ principle has been accommodated in Law No. 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System (UU SPPA) which prioritizes diversion as a mechanism for resolving juvenile cases outside the courts. In addition, the Indonesian Attorney General's Regulation Number 15 of 2020 also regulates the termination of prosecution based on restorative justice. From an Islamic legal perspective, the RJ approach is in line with the principle of Maqashid Syari’ah, which aims to protect the soul (hifz al-nafs) and maintain social harmony. The concepts of qisas, diyat, sulh, and afw in Islam provide space for a more just conflict resolution, emphasizing forgiveness and peace as the main solutions in resolving criminal cases, including for children. The implementation of RJ in the Indonesian legal system faces several challenges, such as the lack of understanding of law enforcement officers, the limitations of more comprehensive regulations, and the minimal involvement of the community in the reconciliation process. Therefore, this study recommends strengthening regulations by enacting a special law on RJ, increasing training for law enforcement officers, and public education so that the community's understanding of restorative justice increases. With these steps, RJ can be an effective solution in a more just juvenile criminal law system, in accordance with Islamic legal values.
