Abstract

In this study, the author raises the issue of the basis of the judge's consideration in imposing punishment on children who commit Copulation on the basis of mutual consent. This is motivated because it is not clearly regulated in the Child Protection Law regarding the crime of sexual intercourse committed by a child if the sexual intercourse is carried out on the basis of mutual consent without any element of violence or persuasion from the perpetrator to the victim, causing a vacuum of norms. The formulation of this problem is How is the evidentiary arrangement of the case of sexual intercourse committed by a child on the basis of mutual consent in Indonesia and What is the basis for the judge's consideration in imposing a criminal decision based on Article 81 paragraph (2) of the Child Protection Law against children who have sexual intercourse on the basis of mutual consent. The objectives in this study are (1) To know and analyze the criminal proof of sexual intercourse committed by children on the basis of mutual consent in Indonesian criminal law enforcement. (2) To know and analyze the basis of the judge's consideration in handing down a verdict against minors who have consensual sexual intercourse. To analyze this problem, the theories that will be used as guidelines for analysis are the theory of evidence, the theory of justice, expediency and legal certainty. This type of research uses normative legal methods consisting of a statutory approach (statue approach), conceptual approach (conceptual approach) and case study approach (case law). The results of this study, the author concludes that the Child Protection Law does not recognize the term consensual because the position in child sexual intercourse against children who are consensual, children are seen in the position of victims. Although in the proof the act is done consensually or child fornication. The criminal regulation is regulated in Article 81 of Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection

It focuses on the constitutional debates on the position and the status of Aceh Qanun Jinayat within the Indonesian legal system and how the Indonesian Supreme Court the Islamic penal law based on Aceh’s Qanun in their decisions. Using the legal research approach, this article begins with the background of the Qanun Jinayat implementation in Aceh, then discusses the constitutional debates on the position of the Qanun in the Indonesian legal system and ends with analyses of Supreme Court decisions on the application of the Qanun Jinayat in criminal cases in Aceh.

Abstract

This article explores the role of a prosecutor in realizing restorative justice in Indonesia. This research employs a socio-legal method, focusing on how legal certainty, legal order, justice, and truth can be achieved by upholding human values,  religious norms, politeness, and decency. The Attorney General of the Republic of Indonesia has established, among others, the prosecutorial function and authority to promote restorative justice in terminating prosecutions in Indonesia based on Prosecutor's Regulation of Indonesia (PERJA RI) Number 15 of 2020 concerning Termination of Prosecutions Based on Restorative Justice. With the amendment of PERJA RI, it is hoped that the public prosecutor in handling criminal cases will act more humanely and conscientiously, prioritizing restorative justice, which aims at restoration to protect the lives of victims and people who commit criminal acts on the grounds of humanity and justice in society instead of focusing on retaliation against perpetrators. As the state institution responsible for prosecutions, the prosecutor's office strives to uphold legal certainty, truth, and justice in line with legal principles while respecting humanity, morality, decency, and religious values.

Abstract

This article examines prosecutorial independence in Indonesia by analyzing three key aspects: the status of prosecutors as civil servants, the constitutional position of the Prosecution Service, and the role of prosecutors in the criminal justice system. It applies an interdisciplinary legal research method by reviewing laws, regulations, and relevant theories. Understanding these aspects helps assess whether the current legal framework adequately protects prosecutors from external influence and recognizes them as independent legal actors, similar to magistrates in other jurisdictions. Prosecutorial independence and impartiality ensure fairness in the criminal justice system. In Indonesia, prosecutors work as civil servants, similar to those in many inquisitorial systems. However, the law does not clearly define their role as magistrates with judicial authority. This legal uncertainty makes them vulnerable to political and hierarchical pressure, which can influence their decisions. A strong legal framework must protect prosecutors from external interference and allow them to act independently, as magistrates do in other systems. The findings highlight a critical issue: the law classifies prosecutors as civil servants but does not formally recognize them as independent legal actors. This gap allows political leaders, superiors, and other parties to interfere in prosecutorial decisions. Without strong legal protection, prosecutors struggle to maintain impartiality. This article argues that lawmakers must formally recognize prosecutors as independent legal actors, similar to magistrates. Legal reforms should strengthen prosecutorial independence and prevent undue influence. A clear legal framework will protect prosecutors, enhance public trust, and uphold justice in Indonesia.

Abstract

Undercover buying and controlled delivery are investigative techniques regulated by Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics. This provision does not regulate the limitations for investigators when carrying out this technique. In practice, this technique does not work effectively, resulting in the failure of the investigation. So this study discusses how the application of Undercover buying and controlled delivery current supervision and how the formulation of criminal law policies in dealing with cases of entrapment of narcotics crimes committed by law enforcement officers in the future. This study uses normative research. The research results show that First, there is a need for renewal of covert buying techniques and supervised delivery. This is because there are 3 (three) legal problems in its implementation, namely there are still informants who are involved in narcotics trafficking, closed access to public information regarding covert purchasing techniques and delivery under supervision by the National Narcotics Agency and the potential for fabrication of cases. Therefore, in the future it is necessary to have the right formulation to overcome this by implementing regulations and legal standards for investigating narcotics crimes.

Abstract

This thesis addresses the decriminalization of the cultivation of Group I narcotics following the revocation of Article 111 of the Narcotics Law by Article 622 paragraph (1) letter w of the National Criminal Code (KUHP Nasional) 2023. This situation, effective in 2026, creates a legal vacuum. This normative juridical research, employing statutory, historical, and conceptual approaches, aims to identify the ratio legis of previous regulations and propose an appropriate formulation. The findings show the ratio legis for regulating narcotic cultivation in the previous Narcotics Law was to break illicit supply chains and deter offenders, in line with international conventions. To fill the vacuum, the thesis recommends explicitly re-regulating the cultivation of Group I narcotics in Article 609 paragraphs (1)a and (2)a of the KUHP Nasional, with severe penalties, to criminalize and combat narcotics trafficking from its source.

Abstract

The Law on Special Autonomy for Papua Province grants the Customary Court the authority to adjudicate criminal cases involving indigenous Papuans. Parties dissatisfied with the decisions of the Customary Court may appeal to the State Court. However, conflicts arise when the formal criminal justice system intervenes before the customary resolution process is completed, creating jurisdictional clashes. This raises the question of how to harmonize the relationship between these two judicial systems in a manner that fosters accommodation rather than resistance. This study employs both document analysis and field research, including interviews with law enforcement officials, judges, academics, and traditional leaders in Jayapura and Manokwari. The findings reveal that the intersection between the Customary Court and the State Court is inevitable, as the subject matter, object, and principles of criminal responsibility overlap between the two systems. To mitigate conflicts, a reconstruction of the interaction between Customary Courts and State Courts is essential, particularly in the adjudication of criminal cases involving customary law communities. Key strategies include fostering synergy and aligning perceptions between the apparatus of the Customary and State Courts. Additionally, the development of comprehensive guidelines for handling customary crime cases is crucial. Such guidelines would provide judges operating within Papua’s jurisdiction with a clear framework for considering customary law, thereby promoting integration and mutual respect between the two judicial systems. This approach aims to ensure that both customary and state legal traditions coexist harmoniously within the context of Papua’s special autonomy.
