Abstract

Transportation plays an important role in supporting economic growth and regional connectivity, but the use of public roads for hauling activities by mining companies in West Aceh Regency has caused significant problems such as road damage, pollution, and accident risk. This condition is exacerbated by a legal vacuum at the local level that does not specifically regulate the use of public roads for the transportation of mining products, although national regulations such as the Mineral and Mineral Law and regulations related to reclamation already exist. This study uses normative juridical methods with legislative and conceptual approaches to analyze applicable legal provisions and identify legal gaps, as well as formulate legal reform solutions. The results of the study show the need for the preparation of clear regional regulations (Qanun), including the setting of operational schedules, quota systems, and real-time monitoring. In addition, the government's cooperation with business entities (PPP) to build special hauling roads through the DBOMFT scheme is proposed as a constructive solution to reduce the burden on public roads and increase regional revenue. Legal reform at the regional level is expected to provide legal certainty, protect the community, and minimize negative impacts on the environment and infrastructure.

Abstract

The principle of Geen Straf Zonder Schuld faces a paradox when applied to corporations, which, as a legal fiction, have no mens rea. However, the profound impact of corporate crime demands an effective mechanism for criminal accountability. This normative juridical research examines the relevance of the principle of Guilt in Indonesian corporate criminal Law through legislative, conceptual, and case-based approaches. The first findings show that, before the New Criminal Code, the application of the principle of Guilt was pragmatic through the Theory of Identification, which attributed the corporation's mens rea to the management or directing mind. This approach is supported by PERMA No. 13 of 2016 and is evident in decisions such as PT GJW and PT CND. The second finding shows the evolution of the doctrine in two directions: (a) the exclusion of the principle of culld through strict Liability in various lex specialis, especially the Law on Environmental Protection and Management; and (b) the transformation of the meaning of debt through the Corporate Culture Model, which views blame as the failure of the system or organizational culture to prevent crime. The culmination is the codification of the Corporate Culture Model in the New Criminal Code (Law No. 1 of 2023), which marks a shift from treating mistakes as lending errors to treating them as authentic corporate mistakes.
