Abstract

The enactment of the 2023 Criminal Code (KUHP) brought significant changes to the regulation of the crime of aggravated theft, particularly through Article 477 of the 2023 Criminal Code, which replaced Article 363 of the old Criminal Code. This change is not only editorial in nature, but also has implications for the construction of criminal elements and law enforcement practices. This study aims to analyze the implications of the application of Article 477 of the 2023 Criminal Code on the enforcement of the law on aggravated theft and compare it with the provisions of Article 363 of the old Criminal Code. The research method used is normative legal research with a legal approach and a comparative approach, supported by primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The results of the study indicate that there are differences in the regulation of aggravating elements and the systematics of punishment that have the potential to affect the investigation process, prosecution, and judges' considerations in issuing decisions. In addition, the implementation of Article 477 of the 2023 Criminal Code still faces challenges in terms of norm interpretation and the readiness of law enforcement officers. This study concludes that a comprehensive understanding and implementation guidelines are needed so that the implementation of the new provisions can guarantee legal certainty and the effectiveness of law enforcement against the crime of aggravated theft.

Abstract

This study analyzes corruption involving Village Funds in Lompo Tengah Village, Barru Regency, and proposes preventive measures for transparent and fair management. The objectives include identifying corruption forms and ideal prevention strategies. Using normative and empirical methods, primary data were gathered through observations and interviews, while secondary data came from literature. Findings indicate that corruption arises from weak supervision, low integrity of officials, poor governance, economic issues, and inadequate understanding of financial regulations. Effective prevention requires collaboration among village, community, and local government, with a focus on capacity building, public information transparency, and empowering institutions like the Village Consultative Body (BPD) and Village Consultative Meeting (Musdes). Implementing good governance principles—accountability, participation, and rule of law—is vital for achieving clean management of Village Funds that benefits the community.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze Indonesia's Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT) Law: Protection of National Interests and Balance of Rights and Obligations of Investors. This research is a type of normative research that will examine and analyze the Bilateral Investment Treaty which provides a balance between rights and obligations based on Indonesia's national interests. The data collection technique through primary legal materials, secondary and tertiary legal materials that have been collected is invertarily, processed and studied in depth so that an overview of the legal issues being studied is obtained. Data analysis is legal material that has been processed and then analyzed using qualitative methods with content analysis techniques. The results of this study conclude that Indonesia's BIT which is in force until now generally still uses the old BIT model which often causes problems with other parties in the agreement, one of which is a lawsuit through ICSID filed by investors from countries that are partners in the Agreement. Sometimes the value of claims sued by investors is sometimes too large to burden the state's finances. This is what encourages the Indonesian side to review the content of the BIT that has been made. Many BITs have been stopped and some have been amended to avoid an imbalance of rights and obligations between investors and the state. Indonesia's BIT that will be created or is currently in force can be amended by including clauses that contain human rights values, environmental protection, sustainability and economic benefits

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the legal aspects of aggravated theft and the concept of criminal liability under Indonesian criminal law. Aggravated theft, as regulated in Article 363 of the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP), involves specific circumstances that increase the severity of the offense and consequently result in heavier punishment. The study examines the elements constituting aggravated theft, the factors considered in the determination of criminal responsibility, and the application of legal principles by courts in relevant cases. Using a normative juridical approach, the research employs a qualitative analysis of legislation, legal theories, and judicial decisions related to aggravated theft. The findings indicate that determining criminal liability in aggravated theft is not only based on the actus reus (the criminal act) but also on the mens rea (the criminal intent) of the offender. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the importance of proportional punishment to ensure fairness and justice in law enforcement. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how Indonesian criminal law upholds justice in handling aggravated theft cases

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the legal protection provided to victims of sexual violence in human trafficking crimes (Tindak Pidana Perdagangan Orang or TPPO) within the Indonesian legal framework. Sexual violence as a form of exploitation in human trafficking represents a severe violation of human rights that undermines the dignity and safety of its victims. Using a normative juridical approach, this research focuses on the examination of legal instruments, including Law No. 21 of 2007 concerning the Eradication of the Crime of Human Trafficking, Law No. 12 of 2022 on the Crime of Sexual Violence, and related provisions in the Criminal Code (KUHP). The study highlights that legal protection for victims of sexual exploitation under TPPO encompasses preventive, repressive, and rehabilitative measures. However, implementation remains constrained by weak law enforcement, lack of coordination among institutions, and inadequate victim recovery mechanisms. Findings indicate that strengthening victim-centered legal frameworks, ensuring comprehensive rehabilitation, and improving access to justice are crucial to achieving substantive protection for victims. This research contributes to a better understanding of how Indonesia’s criminal law should evolve to provide holistic protection and justice for victims of sexual violence in human trafficking cases, aligning with international human rights standards.

Abstract

The arrangement of conjugal visits or "romance rooms" for inmates in Indonesia is in a state of legal vacuum, leaving its implementation to the discretion of non-standardized correctional officers. This normative legal research aims to analyze these problems from the perspective of human rights (HAM) and state administrative law, as well as formulate proposed policy reformulation. Using legislative, comparative, and conceptual approaches, this study finds that current discretionary practices create legal uncertainty, inconsistencies, and are susceptible to abuse of authority, thus contradicting the General Principles of Good Governance (AAUPB). A comparative analysis of international jurisprudence (ECHR vs. the Italian Constitutional Court) and practice in different countries shows that although there is no absolute obligation, regulation-based conjugal visit arrangements are a global trend in support of rehabilitation goals. This study argues that the indefinite handover of authority to officers cannot be justified. As a solution, a policy reformulation model is proposed in the form of a Ministerial Regulation that comprehensively regulates principles, objective criteria, procedures, and accountability mechanisms. This regulation is recommended as a middle way to balance proportionately between the fulfillment of the right to personal life and the family of prisoners with the mitigation of security risks, in line with the mandate of Law No. 22 of 2022 concerning Corrections.
