Abstract

Sexual violence is an act that is degrading, humiliating, harassing, and/or attacking a person’s body or reproductive function, typically caused by an imbalance of power relations or gender discrimination, which results in psychological and physical suffering. Sexual violence against children is a social problem that requires special attention because this crime involves children in its commission. The Institute for Criminal Justice Reform (ICJR) also emphasizes that intercourse with a child constitutes a criminal offense, even if it is framed as consensual, in order to protect the child’s rights and future. Based on this issue, the author aims to examine efforts to combat sexual violence against children under the guise of sexual consent to find the most effective strategies to reduce this increasingly widespread crime. The research method used is a normative and empirical juridical approach. The data used includes both primary and secondary data. Data collection procedures involve literature study and field research. The data analysis was conducted using qualitative analysis. The results of the study show that efforts to combat sexual crimes include both penal and non-penal measures. Penal efforts involve the government enacting more specific regulations on sexual crimes involving adults and children under the pretense of sexual consent, as well as taking repressive measures as a last resort. Non-penal efforts conducted by relevant institutions include public outreach and education that provides information about such criminal behaviors. The suggestions in this study are: (1) To prevent sexual crimes committed under the guise of sexual consent, it is necessary to involve the community and a supportive environment that is aware of unlawful acts occurring around them, and to collectively protect family and community members from engaging in harmful behavior. (2) The government is expected to establish more specific policies regarding sexual crimes involving adults and children under the pretext of sexual consent.

Abstract

The in dubio pro reo principle is a fundamental principle in criminal law that states that if there is doubt in the proof of a case, then the decision must be taken in favor of the defendant. The application of this principle is particularly crucial in rape and murder cases, where the legal consequences faced by the accused are severe. However, the use of this principle often causes debate because it can have an impact on the sense of justice for victims and society. This research uses a normative qualitative method with a normative juridical approach to analyze laws and regulations, legal doctrines, and court decisions related to the application of the in dubio pro reo principle. Data was collected through literature study by analyzing relevant court decisions. The results showed that the application of this principle is based on the negatief wettelijk evidentiary system, which requires a minimum of two valid pieces of evidence and the judge's conviction to impose a sentence. However, in practice, the difficulty of proof in rape and murder cases can lead to the defendant being acquitted despite indications of guilt. Therefore, the balance between the protection of the defendant's rights and justice for the victim must be considered in the application of this principle.

Abstract

The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has led to the emergence of new crimes, including the misuse of deepfake technology to produce and distribute pornographic content without the victim's consent. This form of digital sexual harassment has serious impacts on victims' dignity, mental health, and social life. This study aims to examine the efforts of Police in addressing sexual harassment crimes using deepfake porn and to identify the obstacles faced. Using normative and empirical legal approaches, data were collected through literature review and interviews. The findings reveal that the police efforts involve both penal (law enforcement) and non-penal (preventive) approaches, including public education, cross-institutional collaboration, and cyber patrols. However, the handling of such crimes is still hindered by regulatory gaps, limited technology, and low public awareness. Strengthening legal frameworks and police capacity is essential to effectively combat digital-based sexual crimes.

Abstract

Human trafficking is a complex crime against humanity that involves the exploitation of vulnerable individuals, including Indonesian citizens who have become victims of online scams in Cambodia. This study aims to analyze the implementation of legal protection for victims of human trafficking in Cambodia and to identify the challenges and obstacles faced in efforts to combat this crime. The research method used is a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis, gathering data from various secondary sources, including legislation, legal documents, and relevant academic literature. The findings indicate that although the Indonesian government has made efforts to rescue and rehabilitate victims through diplomatic roles and international cooperation, there are still significant challenges, such as differences in legal systems, limited resources, and the increasing complexity of trafficking modus operandi. Therefore, a comprehensive approach is needed, encompassing the strengthening of bilateral cooperation, enhancing the capacity of law enforcement officers, and public education to prevent human trafficking. This study emphasizes the importance of collaboration between governments, society, and the international community in protecting human rights and the dignity of individuals from exploitation.

Abstract

Currently, public trust in the Indonesian National Army (TNI) is decreasing, especially due to issues of accountability, integrity, and meritocracy. In this uncertain situation, the socialization of the TNI Law is a strategic step to improve the image of the TNI in the eyes of the public. Changes to the TNI Law are expected to bring great benefits, especially in increasing transparency, accountability, and the implementation of a meritocratic system in the TNI structure. However, the public wants to ensure that these changes are truly far from the practice of injustice and personal interests within the TNI. This study aims to see how effective the socialization of the TNI Law is in overcoming the crisis of public trust. In addition, this study also produces various views on the implementation of the TNI Law and assesses how the socialization of the Law can affect public perceptions of professionalism and trust in the TNI. The results of a simple linear regression test show that the socialization of the TNI Law has a significant effect on the level of public trust, with a sig value (0.001). The R Square value of 0.301 indicates that the socialization of the TNI Bill is able to explain 30.1% of the variability in public trust, while the rest is influenced by other factors outside the model. Thus, socialization that is carried out openly, participatively, and accountably is an important step in bridging the current crisis of trust. The findings of this study provide critical insights and are expected to be implemented effectively to improve public trust in the TNI institution in the future.

Abstract

Corruption in Indonesia is very worrying and has a negative impact on almost all aspects of life. Efforts to eradicate corruption that have been carried out so far have not shown optimal results. Corruption still occurs as if it has become part of our lives. Therefore, efforts to eradicate corruption must be carried out comprehensively, integrally, and holistically. Law enforcers in carrying out law enforcement must be carried out firmly, consistently, and in an integrated manner, which is an important step in order to be able to produce just law enforcement, providing legal certainty. These steps can be taken by imposing the heaviest sanctions for perpetrators of corruption, both criminal sanctions and fines. This is expected to increase public trust, create a deterrent effect, and prevent potential corruptors. This study is entitled Thoroughly Examining the Increasingly Occurring Corruption Culture in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to determine and explain how to eradicate criminal acts of corruption in Indonesia.

Abstract

Nasab is a fundamental concept in Islam that determines a child's relationship with the father, which then affects guardianship rights, inheritance, and family relationships. The preservation of lineage is one of the main objectives of Maqāṣid sharia because it has significant legal, social, and moral implications. Constitutional Court Decision No. 46/PUU-VIII/2010 recognizes the civil relationship between an extramarital child and his biological father if it can be proven by technology or other valid evidence. This decision is in accordance with the concept of nasab in Islam but is not recorded by the state. This study examines the concept of nasab and civil status of out-of-wedlock children in Constitutional Court Decision No. 46/PUU-VIII/2010 from the Maṣlaḥah perspective. Using a juridical-normative approach and descriptive analysis, this research is based on sources, including court decisions and legislation, as well as secondary literature discussing Maṣlaḥah. The results show that the decision is in line with the concept of Maṣlaḥah in Islam. The suitability of the Constitutional Court's decision with the concept of maslahah is based on the status of the applicant's marriage as religiously valid. Decision No. 46/PUU-VIII/2010 is not appropriate when used as jurisprudence for children born outside a legal marriage or can be called adulterous children.

Abstract

The punishment of flogging for those who drink alcohol is a form of implementing hudud law in Islam, which is determined based on the Qur’an and Hadith. Alcohol, as anything that intoxicates, is forbidden because it damages the mind, of the main objectives of the maqashid al-syari’ah. The hadith of Ibn Umar states that”Everything that intoxicates is alcohol, and every alcohol is forbidden.” The companions, including Umar bin Khattab and Ali bin Abi Thalib, agreed to set a punishment of 80 lashes. In Indonesia, especially in Aceh, the implementation of this punishment is regulated in the Qanun Jinayat through Article175 KUHP which regulates the technicalities and procedures for its implementation. The punishment of flogging is determined based on the Qur’an and Hadith under the auspices of the law with the aim of providing a deterrent effect for the suspect and social learning for the entire community. This study aims to analyze the normative and legal basis of the punishment for drinking alcohol based on the hadith and local regulations. This punishment is not only repressive, but also educative and preventive, in maintaining morals and community social order.

Abstract

Children are the next generation of a nation, so that the growth and development of children must be properly considered, not only the responsibility of the family and parents but also the responsibility of society and the state, considering that Indonesia is a welfare state that has an obligation to guarantee the rights of its citizens properly. In this case, including the rights of children in conflict with the law (ABH), even though they are children who have problems with the law, they are children who must be protected to fulfill their rights. This study was conducted using literature and document study methods, in the form of books, journal articles, or other types of writings and various laws and regulations relating to cases of children in conflict with the law (ABH). The results of the study showed that the fulfillment of the rights of correctional students consisting of the right to survive and develop, the right to protection and the right to participate has been carried out well by LPKA. Although there is still a shortage of correctional social workers in LPKA who act as facilitators and bridges for ABH to get education and carry out the rehabilitation process according to the needs of children.

Abstract

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) in the digital era has raised a variety of ethical issues that urgently need to be addressed wisely. In Indonesia, Pancasila as the foundation of the state has significant potential to become an ethical foundation in the development of responsible and humanity-oriented AI. This research uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach, examining various academic sources, such as relevant journals, books, and scientific articles. The analysis was conducted through content analysis techniques and reinforced with source triangulation to ensure the validity of the data. The results showed that the values of each precept in Pancasila are highly relevant to the ethical principles of AI, such as moral and spiritual responsibility reflected in the first precept, respect for human rights in the second precept, and the importance of democratization of technology and equitable distribution of benefits stated in the fourth and fifth precepts. Therefore, the integration of Pancasila values in every stage of AI development and application is crucial. This is so that the resulting technology is not only technically superior, but also reflects justice, inclusiveness, and commitment to human values. Collaboration between government, academia, industry, and society is the key to making Indonesia a pioneer in ethical and humanist AI development.
