Abstract

The right to life is the absolute right of every person and is included in the category of rights that cannot be reduced. Indonesia is one of the countries that still maintains and recognizes the legality of the death penalty as a way to punish the perpetrators of certain criminal acts such as narcotics, terrorism, and murder crimes despite the pros and cons. This study aims to investigate the regulation of the right to life against the death penalty in Indonesia, the construction of the death penalty law from human rights viewpoint, and the judge's consideration in imposing the death penalty associated with the principles of human rights. This study used a qualitative normative juridical approach by referring to the legal norms in statutory regulations and norms of the society. The findings highlight that the early existence of the death penalty in Indonesia is legally regulated in the Criminal Code, most of which are from the Netherlands, namely WvS (Wetboek van Strafrecht).

Abstract

The phenomenon of gender change in Indonesia shows that many people want to change their gender. This study aims to examine and analyze legal arrangements in the field of human rights regarding gender change, the implementation of court decisions in Indonesia regarding gender change and the effect of the formation of laws and regulations that specifically regulate gender change on court decisions in Indonesia. Normative research carried out by means of law, conceptual and case approaches. The results showed international agreements and national legislation have not specifically regulated gender change. The court ruling is based on consideration of the results of the medical examination and legal considerations. The establishment of legislation in particular can strengthen court ruling.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to conduct an analysis and study related to how the existence of the Nedosa offense as a Sangihe customary crime and how this offense is included in the renewal of the national criminal law. The prohibition of Nedosa is still existed nowadays and is obeyed by the community and traditional leaders, the settlement is still using customary law methods even though the judicial system has been implemented by the general court. By using a normative juridical research method that focuses on the study of documents and legal materials, both laws and customary decisions are found to be (1) Judiciary, using Law No. 1 Drt/1951 concerning Provisional Measures to Organize Unitary Powers and Procedures for Civil Courts. (2) The case of Donor or “Blood Pollution” (Delik Nedosa) is a unique crime that only exists in the Sangihe Talaud Customary Rules. Both 1917 and 1932 customary rules as well as the 1951 declaration stated that marriage is forbidden between people whose families are in a straight line up and down, cousins, and siblings. The maximum penalty is 5 years in prison. Therefore, the role of the Nedosa offense is very important in the customary law which is still respected and obeyed by the Sangihe Talaud community today. Nedosa's offense is wider than Zinah in the Criminal Code because this offense is related to religion and the perpetrator will be thrown into the sea.

Abstract

Providing welfare for all citizens is the goal of the Indonesian state. In government administration, government officials are often faced with concrete social situations urgently to be addressed, while regulations are unclear. To overcome government stagnation, government officials are given the authority to act based on their own considerations, called discretion. The study aims to analyze the discretionary case and find the relationship between discretion in the perspective of corruption and the theory of criminal removal reason. The study finds that Criminal Code regulates Criminal Removal Reasons concerning defending to save on body, soul, or goods of someone/others, not government officials discretion to defend social interest. The Corruption Law does not regulate Criminal Removal Reason. In judicial corruption in Indonesia, Government officials' discretion was not sentenced because the decision/act is based on considerations of urgency, for the public interest, and does not benefit the government officials/others.
