This study analyzes law enforcement concerning freedom of expression in the case of Wawan Hermawan from the perspective of Lon L. Fuller’s inner morality of law. This research employs a normative juridical method using statutory and conceptual approaches. The analysis focuses on the principles of clarity, consistency, possibility of compliance, and congruence between official action and declared rule. The findings indicate that law enforcement concerning freedom of expression should not be based solely on the formal existence of legal rules but must also ensure clarity, consistency, and conformity between legal rules and the actions of law enforcement officials. Differences in judicial decisions in cases related to the August 2025 demonstrations demonstrate the importance of transparent and accountable legal reasoning. From Lon L. Fuller’s perspective, legal certainty and freedom of expression can coexist through the application of clear, consistent, and non-arbitrary laws.
