Abstract

One provision in the juvenile justice system is that juvenile justice proceedings must involve Community Guidance Officers from correctional institutions (BAPAS) who conduct social investigations on the child, which serve as considerations in the juvenile justice process. However, the presence of Community Guidance Officers has received inadequate attention so far, as if the main actors in handling troubled children are only the Police, Prosecutors, Judges, and LPKA officers. The research method used is empirical juridical research, conducted through field research and literature review. The role of Community Guidance Officers in the Legal Jurisdiction of Bengkulu Province as the Vanguard of the Juvenile Justice System is to provide assistance and recommendations for handling children by conducting social investigations from pre-adjudication, adjudication, to post-adjudication. The obstacles faced by Community Guidance Officers in Bengkulu Province include lack of competence and uniformity in law enforcement officials' perception regarding the best interests of the child, incomplete implementation of recommendations due to lack of facilities for child placement, and societal stigma against the child. Additionally, there are technical obstacles such as distance between BAPAS Bengkulu and the child's residence area. Efforts to optimize the role of Community Guidance Officers in Bengkulu Province involve aligning law enforcement officials' perception regarding the best interests of the child, raising awareness among communities and relevant institutions to accept these children, establishing BAPAS posts, and optimizing the role of local governments to synergize government programs in combating juvenile crime.

Abstract

Lahirnya Undang-Undang Nomor 12 Tahun 2022 tentang Tindak Pidana Kekerasan Seksual (UU TPKS) menandai babak baru dalam sejarah perlindungan hukum bagi korban kekerasan seksual di Indonesia. Berbeda dari regulasi sebelumnya yang lebih menonjolkan pendekatan pemidanaan pelaku, undang-undang ini menempatkan korban sebagai subjek utama yang memiliki hak komprehensif: mulai dari hak mendapatkan penanganan, perlindungan, hingga pemulihan secara menyeluruh. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis secara kritis efektivitas perlindungan hukum terhadap korban kekerasan seksual dalam kerangka UU TPKS menggunakan perspektif viktimologi. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan pendekatan konseptual dan perundang-undangan, diperkaya oleh analisis empiris berdasarkan data sekunder dari berbagai laporan resmi dan kajian akademik. Kajian ini menemukan bahwa UU TPKS membawa pergeseran paradigma yang signifikan dari keadilan retributif menuju keadilan restoratif dan transformatif, terutama melalui mekanisme restitusi, pendampingan hukum, dan perlindungan dari viktimisasi sekunder. Namun demikian, implementasinya masih menghadapi hambatan serius: lemahnya kapasitas aparat penegak hukum, ketiadaan infrastruktur pendukung yang memadai, budaya victim-blaming yang mengakar, serta minimnya peraturan pelaksana yang operasional. Perlindungan khusus bagi kelompok rentan, khususnya penyandang disabilitas, masih jauh dari ideal. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan perbaikan sistemik pada tataran regulasi turunan, penguatan kelembagaan, pendidikan sensitif gender, serta reformasi budaya hukum yang berpihak pada korban.

Abstract

The criminal justice system has long tended to be offender-oriented, resulting in victims often being marginalized and viewed merely as objects within the evidentiary process. In reality, victims are the parties who directly suffer losses due to criminal acts and should, therefore, be positioned as subjects with legal rights and interests. This research aims to analyze the legal standing of victims within the criminal justice system and examine efforts to establish them as subjects from a victimological perspective. This study employs a normative legal research method with a statutory and conceptual approach. The legal materials used consist of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources, which are analyzed qualitatively. The results indicate that although victims are normatively recognized as having rights, in practice, they are still frequently treated as objects within the criminal justice system. This is caused by a strong offender-oriented paradigm, a legal culture that does not yet favor victims, and limited mechanisms for victim participation in the judicial process. Consequently, a paradigm shift through victimological approaches specifically critical and restorative victimology is required to strengthen the position of victims as subjects within the criminal justice system.

Abstract

This research normatively analyzes the position and probative value of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) Testing within the Indonesian criminal procedure law system. The underlying legal issue is the controversy surrounding DNA testing to establish the validity of a biological child, particularly when linked to specific criminal acts such as adultery or defamation. The method employed is juridical-normative, using a statutory approach and a conceptual approach, focusing on a comprehensive review of Law Number 8 of 1981 concerning the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) and related criminal provisions. The analysis of Article 184 paragraph (1) of KUHAP indicates that DNA Testing is not explicitly recognized as an evidence, yet it can be categorized as part of Expert Testimony or Documentary Evidence (Visum et Repertum). The probative force of DNA Testing is absolute in determining biological relationships, but within the criminal context, it must comply with the principle of minimum two valid evidence and be supported by the judge's conviction as stipulated in Article 183 of KUHAP. This research concludes that regulatory harmonization is necessary to provide a more specific and stronger standing for DNA Testing, especially in cases involving the determination of identity or biological relationships.

Abstract

This study examines the psychological impact of domestic violence and victim recovery mechanisms with the aim of identifying key issues, assessing the effectiveness of support services, and providing recommendations for improvement. Using a mixed approach, including a survey of 150 urban victims and in-depth interviews with 20 service providers and survivors, the study analyzed trauma symptoms, coping strategies, and access to legal, medical, and psychosocial support. Results indicate a high prevalence of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress symptoms, limited access to integrated services, and barriers resulting from social stigma and weak inter-agency coordination. Recommendations include strengthening multisectoral referral networks, expanding trauma-based counseling services, and implementing community-based public awareness programs to enhance victim recovery.

Abstract

Peran hakim dalam menilai bukti memegang posisi sentral didalam sistem pembuktian hukum pidana di indonesia yang mengutamakan asas praduga tak bersalah dan penegakan keadilan. Hakim sebagai pihak yang berwenang menilai alat bukti dalam persidangan harus bersikap independen dan objektif dalam mengevaluasi setiap bukti, baik berupa saksi, surat, petunjuk, maupun keterangan terdakwa. Penilaian bukti oleh hakim meliputi analisis kredibilitas dan reliabilitas bukti serta kesesuaian dengan fakta hukum yang berkembang dalam perkara. Proses ini dipandu oleh ketentuan KUHAP dan putusan Mahkamah Agung yang menjadi preseden, namun juga menghadapi tantangan seperti pengaruh subjektivitas dan batasan kualifikasi hukum. Studi ini mengkaji secara mendalam mekanisme penilaian bukti oleh hakim, faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi keputusan hakim, serta implikasi penilaian tersebut terhadap kepastian hukum dan perlindungan hak asasi terdakwa dalam peradilan pidana. Dengan seperti itu tujuan penelitian ini berkontribusi memperkuat pemahaman tentang fungsi hakim dalam rangka memastikan proses peradilan yang fair dan akuntabel di Indonesia.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of non-custodial sanctions under Indonesia's new Criminal Code (Law No. 1/2023). It addresses the issue of prison overcrowding by analyzing these alternative sanctions from a modern and Islamic legal perspectiv. The objective of this study is to understand the effectiveness of non-custodial sanctions and the contribution of Islamic principles in developing a more humane and just penal system This research applies a normative juridical method utilizing statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. Data analysis is conducted through a qualitative analysis of primary and secondary legal sources using a prescriptive-analytical approach. The findings indicate that non-custodial sanctions are highly relevant to Islamic legal theory, particularly within the framework of ta’zir, which is flexible and educative in nature. The principles of justice (al-‘adl), public welfare (al-maslahah), and prevention (al-zajr) in Islamic law support the application of alternative punishments such as community service, fines, and rehabilitation in order to achieve social restoration. In conclusion, the strengthening of non-custodial sanctions aligns with the concept of maqashid al-shari’ah and offers a more humane and effective solution in achieving the objectives of modern sentencing.
