Abstract

The development of technology has reached the Fourth Industrial Revolution, marked by the integration of information technology into the industrial world. In this era, information technology plays a crucial role in human daily activities, including the presence of artificial intelligence as a tool to assist human activities in the digital age. Artificial intelligence is like a double-edged sword—it can help humans fulfill their needs, but on the other hand, it can also harm them if misused. One form of artificial intelligence misuse is through deepfake technology. This AI-driven technology, which can manipulate a person’s facial visuals in both video and photo formats, is increasingly being exploited by irresponsible parties. This article discusses legal protection for victims of deepfake misuse, focusing on regulations, resolution mechanisms, and the right to be forgotten. This research employs a normative legal research method with a conceptual approach. The findings of this study indicate that legal protection for victims of deepfake misuse can be achieved through strengthening regulations on AI usage, adopting a restorative justice approach for victims, and ensuring the right to be forgotten to safeguard their online reputation.

Abstract

AbstractThe principle of legality currently in effect in Indonesia still has weaknesses when faced with actions that are included in the Crimina Extra Ordinary which cannot be reached by the legality principle. The problem that arises is that the act causes harm to the victim, and the perpetrator cannot be convicted. This problem is formulated in the question: how are the limitations of the legality principle related to the protection function for victims? how is the construction of the ideal legality principle in providing protection for victims? The writing of this article uses normative legal research that discusses the legality principle as the basis for the implementation of punishment using a conceptual approach to the legality principle. The analysis technique used is deductive analysis technique, with the nature of prescriptive analysis. The result of this research is the concept of extending the legality principle that provides equal protection for the perpetrators and victims of crime to replace the current formulation of the legality principle, which does not have a protection function for crime victims.Keywords: Limited of Legality Principles, Protection Functions, Crime Victims

Abstract

The death penalty remains a subject of debate in various countries, including Indonesia. This debate arises from differing perspectives between those who support it for its deterrent effect and justice for victims and those who oppose it based on human rights concerns and the potential for judicial errors. This study aims to analyze the validity of the death penalty in Indonesia as a middle ground in addressing the ongoing debate. The research employs a normative legal method with a statutory and conceptual approach, focusing on the study of Indonesian criminal law regulations and philosophical perspectives on capital punishment. The findings indicate that the implementation of the death penalty in Indonesia remains relevant, considering aspects of justice, legal certainty, and public interest. However, to bridge differing views, a more selective mechanism should be applied, such as alternative sentencing with probation periods or strict clemency provisions. This analysis asserts that maintaining the validity of the death penalty with stricter regulations can serve as a middle ground accommodating various interests. Therefore, policy reforms regarding the death penalty should be continuously reviewed to ensure its implementation aligns with legal principles and human rights.

Abstract

The Anti-Corruption Convention has mandated participating countries to confiscate assets resulting from corruption without punishment. This aims to further optimize recovery of state losses due to corruption. Difficulties that may be encountered when confiscation of assets is carried out after the verdict is that the confiscation of assets fails to be carried out because the judge's decision states that the defendant is not guilty or the assets resulting from corruption have been confiscated by the defendant. This article will discuss the importance of implementing asset confiscation without punishment (or also called Non-Conviction Based Asset Forfeiture) as an effort to optimize recovery of state losses. The research method used in this writing is the normative legal research method. The approach used is a conceptual approach. The results of this research are that the Non-Conviction Based Asset Forfeiture mechanism is a form of shift from material truth regarding corrupt behavior carried out by the defendant to formal truth regarding the legality of assets controlled by the corruptor. The focus of this mechanism is not on the fault of the defendant who has committed corruption, but on the illegal assets under his control.

Abstract

The increasing frequency and scale of environmental destruction in Indonesia, such as deforestation, mining disasters, and pollution of vital ecosystems, reveal the inadequacy of existing environmental criminal law to address crimes with transboundary and long-term ecological impacts. While Indonesian law recognizes environmental violations, it does not yet criminalize ecocide—a grave act of environmental harm—either as an extraordinary crime or as an international offense. This paper aims to explore the urgency of incorporating ecocide as a distinct criminal category in Indonesia’s legal system by analyzing the legal gaps and limitations in current legislation, particularly Law No. 32 of 2009 on Environmental Protection and Management. Employing a normative juridical method with a comparative legal approach, the study examines developments in countries such as Belgium and France that have begun codifying ecocide, as well as international efforts to include ecocide under the Rome Statute. The research finds that the absence of ecocide in Indonesian criminal law limits the state’s ability to deter and prosecute large-scale environmental crimes effectively. It concludes that the criminalization of ecocide, both nationally and as part of global legal harmonization, is crucial to achieving ecological justice and long-term environmental protection in Indonesia.

Abstract

The Indonesian government has actively developed restorative justice policies for criminal cases through various laws and regulations; however, their implementation in domestic violence cases remains limited due to the predominance of a retributive mindset among law enforcement officials. In contrast, Malaysia has adopted restorative approaches to address domestic violence through community-based and victim-centered interventions. This research seeks to formulate comprehensive arguments supporting the implementation of restorative justice in domestic violence cases by analyzing relevant legal provisions, doctrinal foundations, and theoretical perspectives, while incorporating a comparative analysis of the Malaysian model. The comparative legal study between Indonesia and Malaysia is particularly significant within the broader framework of legal globalization, ASEAN regional integration, and bilateral cooperation in the fields of law and governance. Both countries, which share an Islamic cultural foundation and a colonial legal heritage, offer compelling contexts for examining the adaptation of restorative justice principles in plural legal systems. In Malaysia, Islamic law regulates various domains of social life, especially in matters of civil and family law, including marriage, divorce, inheritance, and waqf, shaping the socio-legal environment within which domestic violence is addressed. The findings indicate that Indonesia has initiated the application of restorative justice in certain domestic violence cases through mechanisms such as community mediation and police-facilitated reconciliation, though these practices remain inconsistent and are often influenced by patriarchal cultural norms. Conversely, Malaysia maintains a more formal and legalistic approach, with minimal formal recognition of restorative justice within its domestic violence legislation. The study concludes that restorative justice possesses substantial potential as a complementary framework to formal legal remedies, provided that its implementation ensures the protection of victims’ rights, prevents coercion, and upholds fundamental principles of justice, gender equality, and human dignity.

Abstract

The concept of illicit enrichment refers to a significant increase in a public official’s assets that cannot be reasonably explained in relation to their lawful income. As a legal instrument, illicit enrichment has been adopted in various jurisdictions to complement traditional anti-corruption measures, especially when proving the predicate offenses is difficult due to the sophisticated methods used to conceal corrupt practices. In Indonesia, despite the country’s commitment to combat corruption, the legal framework has yet to formally accommodate the concept of illicit enrichment as a standalone offense. This paper explores the potential of incorporating illicit enrichment into Indonesia’s anti-corruption regime by examining international practices, legal principles, and potential human rights concerns, particularly the presumption of innocence and the burden of proof. The analysis indicates that with proper safeguards, illicit enrichment provisions can be aligned with due process and serve as an effective tool in curbing unexplained wealth accumulation among public officials. The study also highlights the challenges Indonesia may face, including legislative reform, institutional readiness, and the need for public acceptance. Nevertheless, the integration of illicit enrichment into national law is not only a legal necessity but also a moral imperative in strengthening public accountability and restoring public trust. This paper concludes that a balanced and rights-respecting approach to illicit enrichment could significantly enhance the effectiveness of Indonesia’s anti-corruption framework.

Abstract

Praktik prostitusi saat ini berkembang pesat dan semakin meluas, dengan perkembangan tersebut semakin dipercepat oleh penyebaran informasi melalui media elektronik. Kurangnya pengaturan yang komprehensif mengenai prostitusi membuat hukum berperan dalam mempengaruhi dinamika praktik tersebut. Minimnya regulasi yang ada menciptakan budaya hukum baru di kalangan para pelaku prostitusi, yang berdampak pada berbagai lapisan masyarakat. Salah satu dampak negatif paling serius dari maraknya praktik prostitusi adalah penyebaran penyakit menular seksual, yang dapat menyebabkan gangguan kesehatan, baik pada individu yang terlibat langsung dalam praktik tersebut maupun pada orang lain yang terpapar, seperti pasangan dari para pelaku prostitusi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis pengaturan prostitusi dalam hukum pidana Indonesia saat ini. Berdasarkan analisis tersebut, penelitian ini juga mengidentifikasi alasan-alasan mengapa penting untuk melakukan pembaruan hukum yang lebih komprehensif terkait pengaturan praktik prostitusi di masa depan. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah penelitian hukum dengan pendekatan normatif. Data yang digunakan berasal dari sumber sekunder yang diperoleh melalui penelitian kepustakaan dan kajian terhadap peraturan perundang-undangan yang berlaku. Adapun metode analisis yang diterapkan adalah teknik analisis deskriptif.  Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun beberapa peraturan daerah telah mengatur praktik prostitusi, namun belum ada regulasi yang mengatur secara tegas dan nasional mengenai prostitusi. Beberapa usulan yang diajukan untuk perbaikan ke depan antara lain adalah pemberian definisi yang jelas mengenai prostitusi, kriminalisasi terhadap konsumen atau pengguna jasa prostitusi, kriminalisasi terhadap pekerja seks komersial (PSK), reformulasi delik terhadap mucikari, penerapan sistem dua jalur dalam pemberian sanksi (double track system), pengenaan pidana yang lebih berat, serta perumusan bentuk delik yang lebih spesifik.

Abstract

The WvS-NI, which was later translated and made into Indonesian criminal law, does not contain cover-up punishment as a form of criminal sanction. Closing punishment is regulated in Law Number 20 of 1946 concerning Closing Punishment and was later determined as one of the main crimes in the Old Criminal Code (WvS-NI translation) as an alternative to imprisonment which is intended for crimes with motives that deserve respect. Throughout the history of criminal law enforcement, the criminal sanction of closure has only been applied 1 (one) time, namely in the 3 July Affair, and has never been applied since then. Nevertheless, the reform of criminal law in Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code still maintains cover-up punishment as one of the main crimes. This article will discuss related to the regulation of criminal cover-ups in the renewal of criminal law.

Abstract

Recent high-profile criminal cases in Indonesia have exposed significant gaps between the formal guarantee of the presumption of innocence and its practical application. This study aims to critically examine the “illusion” of the presumption of innocence in the criminal justice system, highlighting how public opinion and media coverage undermine this fundamental principle. The research adopts a hermeneutic approach, emphasizing interpretative analysis of legal texts, court decisions, and media representations to explore the dynamic interplay between normative law and social reality. Findings reveal that, despite its codification in the Indonesian Criminal Procedure Code, the presumption of innocence is frequently compromised in practice: suspects are often treated as guilty prior to judicial determination, influenced by sensationalist reporting and societal pressure. This discrepancy generates a gap between the formal text of the law and its lived reality, producing a sense of procedural injustice and eroding public trust in the judiciary. The study concludes that the presumption of innocence in Indonesia functions more as a normative ideal than an operational reality, particularly in cases that attract widespread media attention. Hermeneutic analysis demonstrates that restoring the principle’s substantive meaning requires a contextual understanding of law as both a normative and social phenomenon, alongside heightened awareness among legal practitioners, media actors, and the public regarding the ethical and procedural obligations inherent in criminal adjudication. The study underscores the necessity of integrating interpretive, human-centered approaches within legal practice to reconcile law’s formal prescriptions with societal realities and to strengthen the operational effectiveness of fundamental procedural rights.
