Abstract

This study examines the implementation of Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning the Crime of Sexual Violence (TPKS Law) in criminal justice practice with a focus on gender inequality in legal reasoning and judges' juridical arguments. The TPKS Law exists as a progressive legal instrument that emphasizes a victim-based approach and the principle of non-discrimination, as well as accommodates previously unrecognized forms of non-physical sexual violence. However, the effectiveness of these norms is still constrained by judicial practices that are often based on conventional legal paradigms and patriarchal biases. The normative juridical approach is used to analyze positive legal norms, court decisions, and feminist legal concepts, in order to assess the extent to which the principles of the TPKS Law are internalized by judges. The results of the study show that many decisions still question the credibility of victims and ignore the psychosocial dimension of sexual violence, thus perpetuating the practice of victimization. The low sensitivity of gender in legal considerations shows the need for legal feminization as an effort for epistemological and structural transformation in the judicial system. These findings underscore the importance of gender-sensitive judicial training and criminal procedure law reform so that the law can function as a means of substantive justice. This study recommends the integration of legal feminist values as a normative and interpretive framework in sexual violence cases.

Abstract

The crime of revenge porn or the dissemination of intimate content without the victim's consent is a form of technology-based sexual violence that has a serious impact on human rights to privacy, honor, and dignity. This study uses a normative juridical method with a legislative and conceptual approach, relying on statutory analysis, doctrinal interpretation, and review of court decisions and scholarly literature to examine the consistency and effectiveness of legal protection frameworks. Through analytical interpretation of Law No. 12 of 2022 concerning Criminal Acts of Sexual Violence (TPKS), Law No. 19 of 2016 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE), and Law No. 44 of 2008 concerning Pornography, the study critically evaluates how these regulations function substantively in protecting victims. The results of the study show that the normative provisions in the three laws are still overlapping and do not provide comprehensive protection for victims, particularly in distinguishing consensual and non-consensual content distribution, addressing secondary victimization, and ensuring victim recovery. From Thomas Aquinas' perspective, just law must contain a public moral dimension and be oriented towards bonum commune or the common good. Therefore, the reconstruction of legal protection for victims of revenge porn must be based on the integration of positive legal values and natural morality by strengthening punitive, preventive, and rehabilitative aspects. With such a legal model, the Indonesian legal system can realize substantive justice for victims, oriented towards restoring human dignity, and in line with the ideals of Pancasila law.
