Abstract

Disputes arise from various causes, including conflicts resulting from child fights and instances of defamation by individuals. These disputes are prevalent in social settings, occurring not only within communities but also between neighboring villages. A similar scenario unfolded in Gunung Meriah, Aceh Singkil District, where instances of misunderstandings between residents were resolved based on local customs. This research employs a socio-legal methodology, incorporating both a statutory and sociological approach. The findings revealed that disputes arose due to child fights, sometimes resulting in physical harm. In accordance with prevailing customs, sanctions were imposed, such as the ritualistic slaughtering of a chicken, offering of Nakan Gersing (turmeric rice) and plain flour, as well as monetary compensation as determined during the reconciliation process. Additionally, cases of defamation emerged, leading to the defamation of individuals, causing distress to the victimized party. These cases were resolved through the intervention of the Gecik (village head). When addressing child fights, it is important to consider legal protection for both the victims and perpetrators, as stated in the Criminal Code (Law No. 23 of 2002), while ensuring that police involvement minimizes any potential trauma experienced by the child. On the other hand, according to Aceh's Qanun, such disputes are ideally resolved based on local village customs, in line with Qanun Number 9 of 2008. Similarly, cases of defamation fall under Article 310 of the Criminal Code, stipulating a prison sentence of 9 months for offenders. In contrast, the Qanun emphasizes resolving such cases within the village until a consensus is reached.
