Abstract

General background: Indonesia holds rich biodiversity including carnivorous Nepenthes species that face threats from overexploitation and habitat loss. Specific background: Illegal collection and trade of Nepenthes have reduced wild populations and triggered legal responses at national and international levels.

Results: Normative analysis of statutes, ministerial regulations, and documented enforcement cases reveals clear legal prohibitions and prescribed sanctions, yet enforcement variability and awareness gaps persist. Novelty: The paper synthesizes statutory provisions with recent case evidence to highlight implementation gaps in legal protection for Nepenthes. Implications: Findings suggest targeted policy improvements—strengthened monitoring, community engagement, and clearer species-specific guidance—to enhance conservation and legal compliance. Highlights: Statutory protections and ministerial listing for 59 Nepenthes species. Documented enforcement case linking illegal trade to cross-border buyers. Gap between legal provisions and practical enforcement outcomes. Keywords: Nepenthes, Legal Protection, Conservation Law, Illegal Trade, Indonesia

Abstract

This study probes the legal safeguards available for children with disabilities subjected to sexual violence in Sidoarjo Regency, Indonesia, adopting a normative juridical approach. Using normative legal research methodologies, the data collection was conducted through document studies and legal document analysis concerning the legal protection of children and people with disabilities. The research unveiled that the Child Protection Law No. 35/2014 provides special regulations for the protection of children with disabilities, yet it does not explicitly address sexual violence. Conversely, the Disability Law No. 8 of 2016 expressly outlines the rights of disabled children against sexual abuse and their entitlement to education. The study also found congruity in the TPKS Law No. 12 of 2022, which stipulates the protection of disabled children subjected to sexual violence during legal proceedings. The results imply the potential for improved preventive measures, such as local regulations in Sidoarjo Regency addressing sexual violence against disabled children, proactive parental supervision, and a call for societal protection of these children. Furthermore, the implementation of strict sanctions as per applicable laws may provide a sense of justice for the victims.Highlights: Child Protection Law No. 35/2014 and Disability Law No. 8 of 2016 together address the protection of children with disabilities, albeit without explicit mention of sexual violence in the former. The TPKS Law No. 12 of 2022 provides a specific legal framework for the protection of disabled children who are victims of sexual violence during court proceedings. Preventive measures and stringent sanctions, as per these laws, could provide an enhanced sense of justice and security for victims, underscoring the necessity of societal vigilance and parental involvement.

Abstract

General Background: Violence by security forces during public demonstrations remains a critical human rights concern, particularly when it results in civilian deaths. Specific Background: In Indonesia, several incidents involving police shootings during protests—most notably historical cases such as the 1998 Semanggi tragedy—have raised questions about the proportional use of force and adherence to operational procedures. Knowledge Gap: Despite public attention, there is limited analytical discussion grounded in legal perspectives regarding the accountability of police officers who use lethal force during riot control situations. Aims: This study analyzes the death of a student shot by a police officer during a riot, focusing on procedural compliance, legal responsibility, and avenues for justice for victims’ families. Results: The analysis indicates that the use of live ammunition against unarmed demonstrators violates established protocols, which prioritize non-lethal crowd-control measures, and such actions should be subject to legal investigation regardless of intent. Novelty: The study integrates expert legal opinion with historical context to clarify the standards governing police conduct during demonstrations and the legal consequences of procedural violations. Implications: Strengthening regulatory frameworks, improving dissemination of operational guidelines to officers, and ensuring transparent investigations are essential to prevent recurrence, uphold the rule of law, and maintain public trust in law enforcement institutions. Highlights: Lethal weapons were deployed contrary to prescribed non-deadly crowd-management rules. Families of victims retain the right to pursue justice through formal legal channels. Transparent investigation and regulatory revision are necessary to prevent future incidents. Keywords: Police Use Of Force; Live Ammunition; Student Protest; Legal Accountability; Crowd Control

Abstract

General Background: Criminal justice systems rely on multiple law enforcement actors, including advocates, to safeguard legal rights and uphold fairness during judicial processes. Specific Background: In Indonesia, advocates serve as legal counsel responsible for defending defendants, ensuring due process, and maintaining adherence to professional ethics while operating alongside police, prosecutors, and judges. Knowledge Gap: Despite their formal status as law enforcers, limited empirical insight exists into the practical challenges advocates face, particularly regarding ethical dilemmas, institutional pressures, and evolving legal contexts. Aims: This study seeks to explore advocates’ roles, challenges, defense strategies, and perspectives on legal reform in criminal cases through an in-depth interview with a legal practitioner. Results: Findings indicate that advocates encounter bureaucratic obstacles, public pressure, threats, and potential interference from other authorities, which may compromise professional independence. Effective defense relies on comprehensive investigative approaches, strong client communication, and strict adherence to ethical standards. The study also highlights the necessity of legal accompaniment for suspects facing serious charges and underscores concerns about outdated legislation in addressing modern crimes such as cyber offenses. Novelty: By presenting practitioner-based insights, the study illuminates the intersection of professional ethics, procedural justice, and legislative adequacy within real criminal case handling. Implications: Periodic legal reform, clearer recognition of advocates’ institutional position, and inclusion of legal practitioners in legislative processes are essential to build a responsive and equitable criminal justice system. Highlights: Legal practitioners confront administrative complexity, societal pressure, and security risks during case handling. Thorough evidence gathering and close client consultation form the basis of defense preparation. Regulatory updates are required to address technological developments and reduce discriminatory provisions. Keywords:Advocate Role; Criminal Justice System; Legal Defense; Professional Ethics; Legal Reform

Abstract

General Background Narcotics abuse constitutes a serious criminal and public health problem in Indonesia, threatening social stability, security, and community welfare. Specific Background In Sidoarjo, East Java, reported cases of narcotics misuse have risen in recent years, particularly among adolescents and individuals of productive age, prompting intensified law enforcement and preventive measures by the local police narcotics unit. Knowledge Gap Despite the growing concern, limited documentation exists regarding operational practices, legal procedures, and challenges faced by regional police institutions in addressing narcotics crimes at the local level. Aims This study aims to describe the role, legal framework, and operational actions of the Sidoarjo City Police Narcotics Unit in handling narcotics abuse crimes based on an interview with a senior operational officer. Results The findings indicate that the police conduct both repressive enforcement against dealers and preventive activities, while drug users may undergo an assessment process leading to rehabilitation rather than imprisonment in accordance with national narcotics law. However, the unit encounters complex challenges, including sophisticated trafficking methods, resource limitations, and the involvement of diverse social groups. Novelty This work provides primary qualitative insight derived from practitioner testimony, offering a grounded depiction of institutional practices and challenges in a specific regional context. Implications Strengthening public education, increasing operational resources, advancing investigative capabilities, and fostering cross-sector collaboration are necessary to address narcotics abuse comprehensively at the community level. Highlights: Drug users may receive treatment placement following an integrated assessment rather than custodial sentencing. Trafficking networks employ increasingly sophisticated methods that complicate investigations. Multi-stakeholder cooperation and community participation are considered essential for suppression efforts. Keywords: Narcotics Abuse; Law Enforcement; Police Role; Rehabilitation Policy; Indonesia
