Abstract

The 1945 Constitution mandates the state to ensure justice and public welfare, encompassing moral values, social ethics, and humanitarian considerations. Public perception of justice, especially in corruption cases, is crucial, as lenient verdicts can erode public trust. President Prabowo emphasized that light sentences for corruptors harm the public’s sense of justice. The rising number of corruption cases has led to a 34-point decline in Indonesia’s Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) from 2022 to 2023, classifying Indonesia as a “corruption-prone” country. This study analyzes sentencing provisions in Perma No. 1/2020 from a justice perspective, evaluates its implementation, and provides recommendations for fair sentencing. A mixed-method approach (qualitative-quantitative) is used, including correlation tests with SPSS. The results show a significant correlation between state losses and sentence severity in Perma 1/2020. However, its implementation remains weak, with inconsistent judicial rulings leading to sentencing disparities. This study recommends strengthening the implementation of Perma No. 1/2020 to ensure consistency, transparency, and fairness in corruption sentencing and to restore public trust in justice.

Abstract

This paper discusses the issue of village fund corruption through a case study involving the defendant, Feridiyana, a 29-year-old woman charged with engaging in a criminal act of corruption during her tenure as the Head of Financial Affairs in Sepang Village, Toho District, Mempawah Regency, West Kalimantan. Feridiyana was charged under Article 3 of the Anti-Corruption Law for her involvement in the misappropriation of village funds, which resulted in a state financial loss of Rp225,229,176.25. Using a gender-responsive and fair approach, this paper examines the subordinate role played by the defendant in the crime, as well as the pressure exerted by the main actor, the Village Head, Joni Fri Harianto. This research emphasises the importance of courts considering the social context differences between male and female perpetrators in corruption cases to prevent gender bias. The findings aim to provide new insights for law enforcement in adjudicating corruption cases involving women and to encourage more inclusive policies within Indonesia's criminal justice system.
