<![CDATA[This study examines obstruction of justice in Indonesia’s positive law as well as criminal liability in the application of single charges based on the Corruption Law. With normative juridical methods through legislative and case approaches, the research analyzes primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The results of the study show that Indonesian law does not yet have a comprehensive definition of obstruction of justice, thus opening up a wide space for interpretation. The application of a single indictment in corruption cases also creates legal uncertainty, especially in proving the element of “obstructing the legal process” when the act is closely related to the main offense.
