Abstract

This study examines the role of professional ethics of constitutional judges in maintaining judicial independence within Indonesia’s constitutional system. Judicial independence constitutes a fundamental principle in a constitutional state as mandated by the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. However, ethical violations involving constitutional judges, particularly following Constitutional Court Decision Number 90/PUU-XXI/2023, have raised public concerns regarding the integrity and legitimacy of the Constitutional Court. This study employs a normative juridical method using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches through the analysis of constitutional provisions, statutory regulations, legal doctrines, and relevant court decisions. The findings indicate that professional ethics function not only as moral guidelines, but also as constitutional instruments for safeguarding judicial independence, impartiality, integrity, and public accountability. Weak ethical supervision mechanisms, political influence, and conflicts of interest may undermine the legitimacy of judicial institutions. Therefore, strengthening ethical oversight systems, transparent judicial recruitment, institutional accountability, and integrity-based legal culture are necessary to reinforce the credibility and independence of judicial power in Indonesia’s democratic rule of law system.

Abstract

The third amendment to the Indonesian Constitution established the Constitutional Court (MK) to refine democratic and modern governance through a system of checks and balances. Pursuant to Article 24C Paragraph (1), MK's primary authority is to conduct judicial review of laws against the constitution. In 2023, MK faced a severe crisis following Decision No. 90/PUU-XXI/2023, which enabled the son of Indonesia’s seventh president to contest the 2024 General Election. This decision severely eroded public trust and led to the reporting of nine constitutional judges to the Constitutional Court’s Honorary Council (MKMK). Consequently, this article examines how Decision No. 90/PUU-XXI/2023 undermined public confidence and analyzes the ethical violations committed by the justices. This normative legal study employs case, statutory, and conceptual approaches. It utilizes secondary data from primary and secondary legal sources, analyzed through descriptive qualitative techniques. The findings indicate that Decision No. 90/PUU-XXI/2023, concerning the age limit for presidential and vice-presidential candidates, was riddled with irregularities and a disregard for independence and impartiality. Furthermore, the MKMK ruling confirmed that the panel violated the code of ethics; the most severe violation was committed by the Chief Justice, while the other eight justices committed minor infractions. As a preventive measure, it is imperative to reformulate the requirements for constitutional judge candidates alongside the procedures for their selection, election, and nomination

Abstract

The enactment of Law Number 20 of 2025 on the Criminal Procedure Code introduces an improvement to Indonesian criminal evidence law by explicitly recognizing the exclusionary rule in Article 235. Unlike the 1981 Criminal Procedure Code, which merely enumerated categories of evidence without questioning the legality of their acquisition, the new provision establishes procedural legality as a precondition for the admissibility of evidence. This study aims to analyze the regulation of the exclusionary rule under Article 235 and to examine its opportunities and challenges from the perspectives of human rights and the right to a fair trial. The issues discussed include the concepts of illegally obtained evidence and the exclusionary rule, a comparison between the 1981 Code and the new Code, and a review against international human rights instruments. This research employs a normative legal method, using statutory and comparative approaches and drawing on the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) dan Convention Against Torture (CAT). The findings show that Article 235 strengthens human rights and fair trial guarantees, affirms the absolute exclusion of evidence obtained through torture, and restores equality of arms. Nevertheless, the provision has shortcomings, namely the absence of explicit regulation of the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine, the good-faith exception, standing, and the burden of proof. The study recommends reinforcement through supreme court jurisprudence, implementing regulations, and the transformation of law enforcement working culture.
