Abstract

The reverse burden of proof mechanism shifts the responsibility to the fraudster to prove that his wealth did not come from corruption. This system raises concerns regarding justice, legal certainty, and the protection of human rights. This research aims to analyze the application of reverse evidence in criminal and criminal acts of corruption in procuring goods and services from the perspective of state administrative law. Reversal of the burden of proof in criminal acts of corruption is essential to eradicate corruption in Indonesia. From the standpoint of state administrative law, reverse evidence functions as a monitoring tool to prevent abuse of authority by public officials and ensure the implementation of the principles of good governance, namely transparency, accountability, and integrity in the procurement of goods/services. The novelty of this study lies in its proposal to explicitly clarify the balance of evidentiary obligations between the public prosecutor and the defendant in reversing the burden of proof under Law No. 20 of 2001, ensuring fair legal certainty and protection of human rights. Indonesia can adopt Australia's Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 approach, enabling asset seizure from suspected corruption without conviction, to enhance accountability and recover state losses effectively.

Abstract

This study examines the harmonization of International Commercial Law (ICL) with Sharia-based national legal systems in five member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC): Pakistan, Turkey, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Saudi Arabia. These countries were deliberately selected for their diverse legal traditions, varying levels of economic development, and differing degrees of Sharia implementation within their domestic legal orders. Using a qualitative-comparative approach, the research draws on academic literature, national legal documents, and relevant international legal instruments to analyze the interaction between global commercial norms and Islamic legal principles. The analysis identifies thematic trends, methodological approaches, and significant findings from previous scholarship on the intersection of ICL and Sharia. The findings reveal divergent trajectories: Malaysia and Turkey have successfully integrated ICL provisions into their domestic frameworks through institutional reforms and adaptive jurisprudence. In contrast, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia face persistent conceptual and normative challenges, particularly in reconciling modern commercial practices with strict interpretations of Sharia. Indonesia represents a hybrid model, blending secular legal norms with religious values to produce a contextually balanced system. By mapping these comparative experiences, this study contributes to the discourse on legal pluralism and provides insights for policymakers and scholars seeking to develop context-sensitive models for integrating transnational commercial law into modern Islamic legal systems.
