Abstract

Girls are a group that is highly susceptible to the human trafficking crime. Even so, there were still very few researches on this crime from the victim's perspective. This research aims to identify various negative implications caused by human trafficking crime based on the victim's perspective through a victimological approach. The method used in this research is a qualitative method with a normative juridical approach. The data used in this research is primary data obtained from several informants, these are Health Extension Officer Kusuma Bongas and several victims who were survivors of human trafficking, through in-depth interviews and observations. According to the research findings, human trafficking is a serious crime that has a wide-ranging take effect across multiple sectors. In addition to social effects, human trafficking has negative legal consequences as well as it leads to various criminal offenses such as prostitution, the physical, sexual, and psychological exploitation of children, violations of labor laws, and other crimes. For the victims of this crime, there is still potential for unfairness and legal ambiguity due to the law's imperfect implementation in this subject. Therefore, it is important to improve the judiciary system, specifically the fair and strict laws against the human trafficking crime, in order to provide victims safeguards and have a deterrent impact on offenders.

Abstract

The increasing population of elderly narcotics inmates in correctional institutions has given rise to important discourse to ensure the fulfillment of needs to support the process of improving behavior in correctional institutions. The Cirebon Class II A Special Narcotics Correctional Institution has implemented a number of behavior improvement and rehabilitation programs for the elderly which have had good success. This research uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of interviews and observations. From this research it is known that the rehabilitation activities for elderly narcotics prisoners at the Class II A Cirebon Special Narcotics Correctional Institution are divided into two groups of activities, namely personality development and independence. By implementing these two programs, plus strong collaboration with P2HAM, the Cirebon Class II A Special Narcotics Correctional Institution is able to encourage successful rehabilitation of narcotics prisoners, especially the elderly group, so that it can be used as a model for other correctional institutions. Meningkatnya populasi narapidana narkotika lansia di dalam lembaga pemasyarakatan memunculkan wacana penting untuk memastikan pemenuhan kebutuhan dalam mendukung proses perbaikan perilaku di lembaga pemasyarakatan. Lembaga Pemasyarakatan Khusus Narkotika Kelas II A Cirebon mengimplementasikan sejumlah program perbaikan perilaku dan rehabilitas bagi lansia yang memiliki keberhasilan yang baik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa wawancara dan observasi. Dari penelitian ini diketahui bahwa kegiatan rehabilitas narapidana narkotika lansia di Lembaga Pemasyarakatan Khusus Narkotika Kelas II A Cirebon dibagi menjadi dua kelompok kegiatan yakni pembinaan kepribadian dan kemandirian. Dengan mengimplementasikan kedua program terebut, ditambah kolaborasi yang kuat bersama P2HAM, Lembaga Pemasyarakatan Khusus Narkotika Kelas II A Cirebon mampu mendorong keberhasilan rehabilitasi narapidana narkotika, khususnya pada kelompok lansia, sehingga dapat dijadikan sebagai percontohan bagi lembaga pemasyarakatan lainnya.

Abstract

Tulisan ini mengkaji overcrowding sebagai permasalahan utama yang dihadapi mayoritas lembaga pemasyarakatan di Indonesia. Permasalahan overcrowding merupakan persoalan hilir yang tidak dapat diselesaikan secara parsial, sehingga dibutuhkan pemahaman yang komprehensif tentang politik dan kebijakan hukum di Indonesia. Tulisan ini merupakan penelitian doktriner, dengan studi kepustakaan dan perbandingan sejumlah negara dalam pengelolaan lembaga pemasyarakatan untuk dijadikan dasar penentuan penyebab dari covercrowding. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sistem hukum dan peradilan di Indonesia masih berkontribusi secara aktif terhadap overcrowding dengan diberlakukannya masa tahanan yang panjang sebelum proses peradilan, jumlah aturan perundang-undangan yang mengedepankan fungsi punitif dengan menerapkan sanksi pidana kurungan dibandingkan dengan fungsi rehabilitatif. Dengan demikian, dibutuhkan sebuah transformasi hukum dan penerapan alternatif pidana tanpa kurungan, sebagai solusi jangka panjang mengatasi overcrowding di Indonesia.

Abstract

The decision to detain suspects in detention centers or prisons has contributed to the rising occupancy rates, leading to overcrowding in prisons. This study aims to understand the fundamental values underpinning the implementation of pre-trial detention policies in Indonesia and their impact on the increased congestion in prison facilities. The study employs a descriptive approach with a normative juridical research type. The issues are examined using statutory and conceptual approaches. Data collection is conducted through a literature review, and the data is analyzed qualitatively. The research findings reveal that the law provides a robust foundation for implementing alternative offender penalties aside from imprisonment. However, the understanding of law enforcement officers as instruments of law enforcement still tends to favour decisions on pre-trial detention and large-scale detentions. Social and political factors remain the primary basis for the application of suspect detention, subsequently driving the escalation of prison overcrowding cases.

Abstract

  The role of correctional institutions and society as entities responsible for the implementation of legal sanctions, in reality, holds a key role in shaping the life trajectory of former prisoners after release. However, former prisoners are often confronted with stigma, discrimination, and isolation in various aspects of life, which in turn encourages repeated criminal acts (recidivism). Consequently, a view emerges that the law has not yet provided strong certainty, particularly for former prisoners, due to the continuing imposition of social sanctions by society. This socio-legal research employs a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design. The data used are primary data obtained through interviews with informants. The interview results are discussed descriptively to provide a comprehensive perspective on public perceptions of former prisoners. The findings indicate that stigma and discrimination as social sanctions do not produce a positive impact on the reintegration process, especially as they increase the tendency of former prisoners to reoffend. The completion of legal obligations by offenders is not accompanied by a positive societal role in accommodating behavioral changes among former prisoners, particularly in the presence of stigma, discrimination, and isolation. An approach is therefore needed through the implementation of rehabilitation programs involving the community to generate a holistic impact, namely behavioral improvement among former prisoners and increased public understanding of their vital role as an integrated whole in the reintegration and social improvement process.

Abstract

Electronic Monitoring (EM) constitutes a sophisticated surveillance mechanism that epitomizes technological advancements within the legal sphere and acts as a feasible substitute for conventional detention practices. Nations such as South Korea have adeptly incorporated EM into a meticulously designed, community-centric training framework. Indonesia is encouraged to adopt EM; however, the effective realization of this initiative necessitates alterations to the prevailing legal and social infrastructure. This research endeavors to investigate the feasibility of EM implementation in Indonesia through a comparative analysis with the established framework in South Korea, focusing particularly on the alignment of correctional institutions, technological systems, and community engagement. Employing a comparative judicial methodology, this study assesses the legal framework, institutional arrangements, and operational procedures pertaining to EM in both jurisdictions. Findings indicate that South Korea has established a comprehensive national framework for EM, supported by centralised monitoring facilities located in Seoul and Daejeon, regional parole offices, and coordinated oversight in conjunction with law enforcement agencies. In contrast, Indonesia's correctional system remains hampered by fragmented regulatory measures, inadequate institutional collaboration, and limited technological capabilities. The lack of EM as a formally recognised legal instrument limits alternative sentencing options and exacerbates prison overcrowding. This study concludes that Indonesia requires legislative reform, capital investment in monitoring infrastructure, and enhanced inter-agency collaboration to facilitate the effective implementation of EM.

Abstract

The involvement of women in various aspects of life, both socially and economically, has exposed the potential for criminal behaviour among women. This situation has led to the phenomenon of women's involvement in criminal acts commonly associated with men, such as robbery, murder, organized crime, and human trafficking. Poor social and economic conditions tend to be triggering factors and solid reasons for women to engage in criminal activities. This background has become the basis for the increasing number of women in prison in Indonesia, opening the possibility of various forms of violence within women's prisons. This presents a significant challenge for the management of women's prisons in optimizing the reintegration system due to the escalation of significant demotivation resulting from the violence experienced by female inmates, both among themselves and with prison staff. This research employs an exploratory qualitative approach, focusing on women involved in criminal cases and sentenced to prison. Primary data from interview results are descriptively analysed, producing a comprehensive, authentic, and representative narrative. The findings of this study indicate that the concept of punishment in Indonesia still emphasizes punitive functions over corrective functions, where both physical and mental violence are considered effective forms of punishment, especially for women. Violence occurring within women's prisons is then negatively responded to and becomes a driving factor for the decreased interest of female inmates in succeeding in the reintegration program. This reluctance then triggers a negative response from the staff in the form of violence against female inmates. A solution to mitigate violence in women's prisons is the placement in open prisons, with the involvement of independent external parties in both the supervision process and the implementation of reintegration programs to achieve an inclusive and constructive effect for all parties involved.

Abstract

In Indramayu, the spread of narcotics is not a crisis, but if left unchecked, it will become a crisis for the future of youth in Indramayu. This study aims to determine the development of narcotics trafficking prevention in Indramayu district. The method used is a direct interview with the source. The participants in this study are the Head of the Indramayu Police Drug Unit, the Chairman of the Lemah Mekar District Drug-Free Village, and the Indramayu Regency Pamong Praja Police Unit. The results obtained are that at this time the spread of narcotics is still conducive or always monitored by both the community, babinkamtibmas, and babinsa. The distribution of narcotics in the form of Prohibited Hard Drugs (OKT) still exists but is hidden. Counseling is more effective if it is carried out through a personal approach to adolescents aged 15 to 19 years.

Abstract

The development of sexual crimes against children, both children as perpetrators or children as victims lately is very concerning. Sexual crimes are greatly influenced by time and place. The high level of human civilization and the phenomenon of globalization that increasingly knows no boundaries, in this case, is the negative impact of the influence of globalization also contributes to the emergence of various crimes of sexual harassment. Often crimes or criminality occur around our lives, including on the streets or public spaces. From the presentation, the formulation of the problem will arise, namely how is the Status and Position of Children in the positive legal system of Indonesia and International Law? What is the form of legal protection for children who have committed criminal acts in Indonesia's positive law? How is the concept of legal reform on the determination of children's age limits so that they can make a positive contribution to law enforcement?        The methodology used in the study uses a normative legal research method (doctrinal research) which mainly analyzes primary legal materials and secondary legal materials, in this case the researcher also complements the method of interviewing sources that is autorotac, because its nature is more focused on conceptualizing ideas in the form of models, so that the expected results can be applied by policy makers. Violations of the law that have been committed by a child, of course, in terms of law enforcement, are treated differently (diversion) from the procedures applied by adults. Therefore, researchers argue that there is a shift in understanding related to the age of children and people who are considered adults at this time, remembering the fact that some children are not yet 18 years old, but they are physically and psychologically mature. Based on the above explanation, according to the author, it is important to be able to conduct a study on the age limit of children so that they are limited legal subjects because this can be a measure for law enforcement and can provide legal protection for children who are facing the law.

Abstract

Community-based corrections has become an alternative approach in the criminal justice system to address the challenges arising from the conventional incarceration approach. This approach not only aims to rehabilitate offenders through social integration, but also reduces recidivism rates and prison overcrowding. However, its implementation faces various obstacles, including complex legal issues, such as differences in regulatory interpretation, policy gaps between countries, and limited legal resources. This study aims to analyze the implementation of community-based corrections from a legal perspective using a global survey. The research methodology includes data collection from various countries to identify legal challenges, best practices, and innovations in the community-based corrections system. The results show that the success of the implementation of this approach is greatly influenced by the existing legal framework, policy support, and community engagement. This abstract provides insight into the importance of a holistic approach involving updating the legal framework, improving coordination between institutions, and strengthening community capacity to support the sustainability of community-based corrections. This global survey also recommends more inclusive and adaptive policies to address differences in legal contexts across jurisdictions.
