Abstract

The Honorary Council of the Regional People's Representative Council (BK DPRD) is an institutional body mandated to uphold the integrity, morality, and ethics of council members in accordance with the principles of good governance. Issues arise when the BK DPRD of Subang Regency renders decisions without referring to the legally binding Code of Ethics and Procedural Rules, which should serve as the formal framework for ethical enforcement. This study aims to analyze the validity of BK DPRD’s decisions made without these normative foundations and to assess their implications for legal certainty and institutional legitimacy. The research applies a normative juridical method combined with statutory and sociological approaches. The findings reveal that any decision issued by the BK DPRD without the Code of Ethics and Procedural Rules lacks legal force and violates the principles of justice and legal certainty. Therefore, institutional reform and the establishment of comprehensive internal regulations within the DPRD are essential to ensure legal accountability, procedural fairness, and ethical integrity in legislative governance.

Abstract

The Papuan People's Assembly (MPR) is a cultural representation institution established within the framework of Papua's special autonomy to protect the rights of indigenous Papuans and uphold customary, religious, and women's values in regional governance. This study aims to analyze the legal standing of the MRP, the implementation of its authority, and the challenges of strengthening its role in the Papuan government system. The method used is normative legal research with a statutory, conceptual, and analytical approach. Legal materials were obtained through a literature review of relevant laws and regulations, scientific literature, and legal documents, then analyzed qualitatively through legal interpretation and juridical argumentation. The results of the study indicate that normatively, the MRP has a strategic position as a special institution that functions to provide consideration, approval, and protection for the rights of indigenous Papuans. However, in practice, the implementation of its authority has not been optimal due to its consultative nature, overlapping institutional relations, limited capacity, and the influence of politics and regional expansion policies. This study concludes that strengthening the role of the MRP requires regulatory refinement, increased institutional capacity, strengthened independence, and the establishment of more effective coordination so that the goals of special autonomy in Papua can be realized in a just and democratic manner.

Abstract

This study aims to discussone type of crime, namely human trafficking. This study uses a normative juridical research method, using literature analysis and secondary datacovering primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. The results of this studyshow that the Human Trafficking Law provides astrong legal basis. It explicitly formulates various elements of the crime ofhuman trafficking along with severe criminal sanctions. Criminal liability is not only given to the main perpetrator butalso to those who participate in the crime. However, one issue that often poses a challenge is the lack of in-depth understandingby law enforcement officials regarding the nature and complexity of the crime ofhuman trafficking. Therefore, continuous training forlaw enforcement officials and technical capacity building for investigators in maximizing the use ofthe articles on the crime of human trafficking are needed.

Abstract

The rising number of sexual violence cases against children has prompted the state to introduce chemical castration as an additional penalty within Indonesia’s criminal justice system. This policy has generated debate because it lies between the need to protect children and the state’s duty to uphold human rights. This study examines the judicial considerations in District Court Decision No. 5/Pid.Sus/2022/PN Bjm, which imposed chemical castration on a perpetrator of child sexual violence, and evaluates its application from the perspectives of criminal law and human rights. This research adopts a normative juridical method using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches by reviewing the 1945 Constitution, the Child Protection Law, Government Regulation No. 70 of 2020, the Human Rights Law, and relevant literature and case law. The findings show that the court imposed chemical castration based on the proven elements of the offense, the repeated nature of the acts, and the perpetrator’s position of authority as a stepfather. The policy is viewed as a preventive measure to reduce the risk of reoffending. However, its implementation raises human rights concerns due to potential interference with bodily integrity, inconsistency with medical ethics, and the absence of clear technical guidelines.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze regulations on child grooming and to understand and strengthen legal protection for children from the threat of sexual violence and exploitation, especially child grooming, given the increasing threat of child grooming in Indonesia. The type of research used by the author in this study is normative juridical using a statute approach. The results of the study show that cases of child exploitation originating from cyber grooming involving online media continue to rise steadily. Criminal activities in cyberspace include child sexual abuse/exploitation material, sexual extortion, sexting, live online sexual abuse, and child grooming. Child grooming itself is a process of deception used by sexual abusers to manipulate the minds of minors for the purpose of carrying out practices such as pornography, sexual violence, and indecent acts. Efforts to protect children have been made through various policies and programs to prevent violence, protect victims, and address the negative impacts caused. The Indonesian government has adopted various legal instruments and their implementing regulations to ensure the protection of children from all forms of violence.

Abstract

Domestic violence requires the role of the state through strong legal regulations to provide optimal protection for victims. This study examines legal regulations related to the crime of domestic violence and efforts to protect victims. The method used is normative legal research with a library approach through a review of relevant laws and legal literature, such as the Criminal Code (KUHP), the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), Law Number 23 of 2004 concerning the Elimination of Domestic Violence, and the Law on Witness and Victim Protection. The results of the study indicate that, normatively, domestic violence has been comprehensively regulated as a public law issue. In practice, victim protection has not been optimally implemented due to obstacles from law enforcement, community culture, and limited supporting facilities.

Abstract

The re-enactment of the presidential insult offense in Indonesia's new Criminal Code (Law No. 1 of 2023) has ignited a fierce debate regarding its impact on freedom of expression, particularly in the digital era. This study aims to identify, evaluate, and synthesize existing academic literature to analyze the potential chilling effect of Articles 218 and 219 of the new Criminal Code on public participation in the digital sphere. This research employs the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, adhering to the PRISMA protocol. A literature search was conducted across prominent academic databases using strict inclusion and exclusion criteria to ensure the relevance and quality of the reviewed studies. Thematic analysis of the selected literature reveals several key themes: (1) the normative ambiguity between 'insult' and 'criticism' as a primary source of legal uncertainty; (2) the role of digital media in amplifying the perceived legal risks for citizens; and (3) the ongoing debate on the effectiveness of its reclassification as a complaint-based offense in mitigating the chilling effect, given the asymmetrical power relations. In conclusion, despite its modification into a complaint-based offense, the consensus in the academic literature suggests that the presidential insult article retains a strong potential to create a chilling effect, which could ultimately stifle healthy democratic discourse in Indonesia.

Abstract

Cases of electronic-based sexual violence (KSBE) are increasing in the digital age, resulting in serious psychological and social impacts, especially for children as victims. This study aims to understand the legal protection for child victims of KSBE based on Indonesian positive law and to understand how the law responds to such crimes. The research method used is normative research with a legislative and conceptual approach. The results show that Indonesian positive law has a significant legal protection framework for child victims of ESV, including the Child Protection Law, the Sexual Violence Criminal Law, and other related regulations. The legal protection provided covers various aspects, including health services and psychosocial assistance, the right to protection in the judicial process, the right to restitution, and the right to the removal of sexual content. The penalties include imprisonment and fines with various ranges, adjusted to the level of violation, in accordance with relevant legal regulations. However, even though this legal framework is in place, its implementation still faces challenges, such as a lack of understanding among law enforcement officials and incomplete implementing regulations. Therefore, this study also provides policy recommendations to strengthen legal protection for child victims of KSBE.

Abstract

This article analyzes the granting of abolision to corruption convicts through a case study of Tom Lembong, the former Minister of Trade who was sentenced to 4.5 years in prison and fined for a sugar import corruption case. The study employs a normative-juridical approach by analyzing legal regulations, court decisions, presidential decrees, as well as relevant legal literature and media articles. The main findings reveal that the granting of abolision has a constitutional basis under Article 14 paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution and is implemented through formal procedures involving the President and the House of Representatives (DPR). However, the implementation of abolision in corruption cases raises ethical, political, and juridical dilemmas, particularly concerning substantive justice and the integrity of law enforcement. Abolision granted to corruption offenders risks weakening deterrent effects, reducing public trust in the criminal justice system, and creating opportunities for the executive branch to abuse power for short-term political purposes. This study recommends that the government and DPR formulate specific criteria for future abolision grants, tighten public oversight mechanisms, and uphold the values of justice and the supremacy of law in all abolision decisions.

Abstract

Legal responsibility for the provision and management of utility cables in public roads has become a critical issue due to the increasing number of hanging cables that endanger road users and cause accidents. This study aims to analyze the legal liability of PT Bali Towerindo Sentra Tbk in the provision of utility cable infrastructure and to examine the forms of legal protection available to victims resulting from such negligence. The research applies an empirical or sociological legal research method using a field-based approach, supported by statutory analysis, observation, and interviews. The findings indicate that corporate liability has not been optimally enforced due to regulatory limitations, as the existing legal framework—namely the Regulation of the Minister of Public Works Number 20/PRT/M/2010 and the DKI Jakarta Governor Regulation Number 106 of 2019—only provides administrative sanctions, thereby creating a legal vacuum in terms of civil and criminal accountability. Furthermore, legal protection for victims remains inadequate, as compensation, restitution, and recovery mechanisms as stipulated under Law Number 13 of 2006 and the principles of the Indonesian Criminal Procedure Code have not been effectively implemented. This study underscores the need for specific and comprehensive regulations, as well as strengthened supervisory institutions, to ensure corporate accountability and fair legal protection for victims.
