The Penal Code is a law that regulates punishment, especially actions that are felt to cause harm to others such as theft, violence, murder, fraud and various other criminal acts. The Penal Code is also equipped with sanctions that will be given to someone who commits violations, both in the form of fines, imprisonment, to the death penalty. The Penal Code has also been amended several times in order to provide legal certainty for all levels of society. Article 170 of the Indonesian Civil Code is one of the articles that focuses on legal protection of people and goods from criminal acts.
