Abstract

Indonesia’s legal system provides a robust framework for protecting witnesses. In criminal cases, justice and legal certainty are ensured while also prioritizing the safety and well-being of witnesses. This study examines the regulation of legal protection for witnesses and victims under the Witness and Victim Protection Law and assesses if the Law has been effective in providing justice and legal certainty. The research method employed normative legal research. The Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) inadequately protects witnesses, as revealed by the study. The Witness and Victim Protection Law clearly outlines the rights of witnesses and victims of criminal acts in specific cases, as determined by the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK). In addition, the law requires that victims of gross human rights crimes receive compensation from the state. According to Government Regulation No. 44/2008, the state provides compensation when the perpetrators are unable to fully meet their responsibility.Keywords: Legal Protection, Witness, Victim

Abstract

The widespread use of electric bicycles in Indonesia, which is starting to grow, hasgiven rise to pros and cons among the wider community. There are those who support it withthe aim of saving, but quite a few criticize it because it is used by more children and threatenssafety. Not to mention that there are a number of users who roam freely on the highway withoutpaying attention to a number of existing regulations. Progress in the transportation sector hasultimately encouraged developments in terms of legislation and transportation habits. The law isactually able to keep up with developments compared to the times. The current popularity ofelectric bicycles is progress in the field of transportation, but unfortunately this is not supportedby mature regulations. Although electric bicycles are very practical to use and make it easy for many peopleto ride them, even the elderly. It is also important to remember that electric bicycles are not yetincluded as the main mode of transportation and are registered in Indonesia because thecapacity of electric bicycles is limited and there are licensing issues. In this condition, theposition of electric bicycles can be said to face a legal vacuum as a result of things that are notregulated by law. There are no legal norms that specifically target vehicles with some criteriabeing motorized vehicles and others being non-motorized vehicles.

Abstract

The Community Disease Operation (Pekat) and the implementation of two-wheeled mass dispersal patrols within the jurisdiction of the Badung Police are expected to increase police presence in the community and limit opportunities for criminal activities. Patrol implementation is guided by Police Regulation Number 1 of 2017 concerning Patrols, while the enforcement of theft offenses is based on Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the KUHP. This research employs an empirical legal research method. The results show that the effectiveness of two-wheeled mass dispersal patrols conducted by the Samapta Unit in preventing aggravated theft has not been fully optimal due to constraints related to limited personnel, facilities and infrastructure, utilization of technology, and low community participation.
