Abstract

The application of law in defamation cases refers to Law No. 19 of 2016 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions (EIT Law) has become a crucial issue in maintaining a balance between law enforcement and the protection of freedom of expression in Indonesia. This issue is closely related to the fact that public criticism of government officials is a common occurrence in democratic societies. This study employs a normative juridical method to examine court decisions related to criminal acts of defamation committed through social media, with a particular focus on Decision Number 202/Pid.Sus/2023/PN.Jkt.Tim. The main objective of this research is to analyze the legal provisions regarding defamation on social media, as well as to examine the judge's ratio decision in delivering an acquittal, which is considered to be in accordance with the prevailing positive law in Indonesia. This study also highlights the elimination of the unlawful nature of the act in defamation cases on social media, as reflected in the aforementioned decision. The findings indicate that although there are existing regulations concerning defamation and the protection of freedom of expression, these regulations have not yet fully provided legal certainty. In practice, law enforcement has also not ensured fair protection of citizens' freedom of expression. Therefore, a more selective and cautious approach in law enforcement is necessary, particularly in considering the absence of an unlawful element when a person exercises their right to express an opinion.
