Gambling is a criminal offense, of the many online gambling cases that have been decided by the court, including Decision Number 111/Pid.Sus/2021/Pn Unr, and Decision Number 139/Pid.Sus/2021/Pn Skb. Both decisions are decisions related to gambling crimes committed through electronic means, but from the two decisions, there are fundamental differences, especially related to the application of the reason is, where in the first decision the Judge used Article 303 of the Criminal Code, but in other decisions, the judge used the ITE law.
