<![CDATA[Criminal liability for children who perpetrate bullying resulting in serious injury is an increasingly prominent issue with the rise in cases of violence between children. The focus of this research is on Indonesian legal regulations, the application of criminal sanctions, and the age limit for criminal liability under the Juvenile Criminal Justice System Law. This research uses a normative juridical method by examining laws and regulations, literature, and related cases. The findings in this discussion indicate that bullying resulting in serious injury can be classified as a crime with criminal consequences or actions, but its implementation must still consider the principle of the child's best interests.
