Abstract

The implementation of Progressive Law Enforcement is motivated by the desire to avoid negative effects on the ineffectiveness of the criminal justice system in accommodating criminal cases so that the law enforcement process does not continue through the courts. This writing uses descriptive legal research, in which the author uses a normative juridical research type using the Library Research data collection method. This research aims to find out the philosophical basis of Progressive Law in providing legal certainty and legal benefits and the application of Progressive Law by the National Police in increasing the resolution of criminal cases. Based on the research and discussion results, a picture is obtained that law is the rules and guidelines that regulate life in society to create peace and order. Progressive legal ideas occupy a separate legal position. Various groups in handling legal cases, especially in the country, emphasize the preposition of Progressive Legal theory. Especially emphasizing the element of benefit in the form of human peace in society, nation, and state, the implementation of progressive law as an effort to improve the resolution of criminal cases requires that police investigators be able to carry out their duties and authority professionally, accountably and morally so that progressive law enforcement can be in line with legal objectives. It provides legal certainty, legal benefits, and a sense of justice.

Abstract

The prosecutor's office is responsible for carrying out investigations into criminal acts of terrorism. This includes collecting evidence, monitoring perpetrators, and gathering information from related parties. The prosecutor's office also has the authority to examine documents related to criminal acts of terrorism, such as newspapers, magazines, and social media. Prosecutors as Public Prosecutors have the primary task and role of prosecuting various criminal cases and carrying out judge's determinations and court decisions with permanent legal force. This terrorism case is classified as an ordinary examination procedure. The prosecution process in this terrorism case must be based on an indictment proven at a court hearing and ends with a legal charge (Requisitoir) as regulated in the Criminal Procedure Code. The procedure for criminal prosecution must be guided by the Circular Letter issued by the Attorney General's Office, namely Circular Letter Number: SE- 003/JA/8/1988, which has been updated with Circular Letter Number: SE. 001/JA/4/1995 Concerning Guidelines for Criminal Charges. The Public Prosecutor must be astute and thorough in formulating a criminal offense and the articles imposed on the defendant because it will significantly impact the indictment. If there is an error in formulating the criminal act and the articles imposed, it will have fatal consequences, namely that the case is null and void, and the defendant will be acquitted.

Legality is the oldest principle of criminal law and is found in almost all national criminal laws worldwide. The existence of this principle is to protect citizens from the arbitrariness of the authorities. The principle of legality in criminal law has a central role in ensuring legal certainty for society because this principle requires the existence of written regulations regarding a criminal act to carry out a punishment. The aim is to understand the principles of legality according to criminal law in Indonesia. The research used normative juridical methods with data collection methods through a literature study. The principle of legality in Indonesian criminal law is a fundamental principle. The principle of legality in criminal law is essential to determine whether or not a criminal law regulation can treat a criminal act that has occurred. Applying the principle of good legality in national criminal law is not rigid, mainly to tackle crimes against human rights.
