Abstract

Asset forfeiture in money laundering serves as a key tool to disrupt the economic benefits of crime and restore state losses, yet its implementation faces challenges in protecting bona fide third parties. The lack of clear and consistent standards for assessing good faith leads judges to decide case by case, creating legal uncertainty and potential injustice. Normative gaps, including disharmony regarding non-conviction-based forfeiture, exacerbate these ambiguities. This study employs a normative juridical method combining statute, case, and conceptual approaches. The statute approach examines the TPPU Law and the Corruption Eradication Law on asset forfeiture and third-party protection; the case approach analyzes judicial practice, including Decision No. 362/Pid.Sus/2025/PN Jkt.Sel, to assess judges’ interpretation of good faith; the conceptual approach reviews doctrines, principles, and theories on asset forfeiture, property rights, and third-party protection. Findings show that judicial standards remain inconsistent, leaving third-party protection case-specific and legally uncertain. The study highlights the gap between normative frameworks and practice and underscores the urgent need for clearer, proportional standards for proving good faith in the anti-money laundering regime.

Abstract

General Background—The rapid expansion of digital interactive spaces has intensified risks of non-physical sexual violence against children, particularly through online gaming platforms; Specific Background—Mobile Legends, one of Indonesia’s most popular multiplayer games, offers communication features that have been exploited by perpetrators to conduct child grooming through gradual trust-building and manipulation; Knowledge Gap—Indonesian criminal law does not explicitly regulate child grooming as a standalone offense, creating uncertainty in attributing criminal liability at pre-physical stages; Aims—This study analyzes the criminal liability of child grooming perpetrators operating through Mobile Legends within the framework of Indonesian law; Results—Using a normative juridical method, the study finds that perpetrators’ actions satisfy the elements of actus reus and mens rea under existing statutes, including child protection, electronic information, and sexual violence laws, even without physical contact; Novelty—The research integrates criminal liability theory with empirically identified grooming patterns in online gaming environments, emphasizing accountability at the preparatory and psychological manipulation stages; Implications—The findings suggest that while current laws can substantively address digital child grooming through systematic interpretation, effective enforcement requires enhanced digital forensic capacity, child-centered reporting mechanisms, and stronger collaboration with game platform providers to ensure comprehensive child protection in the digital era. Highlights: Digital Modus Operandi — Child grooming in Mobile Legends occurs through staged psychological manipulation using in-game and external communication features. Legal Accountability — Even without physical contact, grooming actions fulfill actus reus and mens rea under Indonesian child protection, ITE, and TPKS laws. Regulatory Urgency — The absence of explicit grooming provisions highlights the need for clearer norms and stronger digital law enforcement mechanisms.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has led to a new form of criminal activity online gambling which continues to expand within Indonesian society. However, the existing legal provisions, both in the old Criminal Code (KUHP) and the new National KUHP, do not explicitly regulate criminal sanctions for online gambling players. Meanwhile, the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE) only addresses penalties for organizers and service providers. This has resulted in a legal vacuum, leading to uncertainty and weak law enforcement effectiveness. This study aims to examine the legal implications of the absence of specific regulations on criminal sanctions for online gambling players and to analyze the urgency of establishing a special regulation governing such sanctions in Indonesia. The research employs a juridical-normative method using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches to analyze the normative limitations and the need for criminal law reform. The findings indicate that Gustav Radbruch’s theory of legal certainty is relevant in explaining the necessity for more adaptive and clear legal provisions. The study recommends the formulation of a specific legal provision that defines online gambling players, outlines the elements of the offense, and differentiates levels of culpability, so that law enforcement and sentencing can be applied proportionally to the degree of involvement and fault of each offender.
