Abstract

The granting of remission is one of the rights of prisoners provided as a form of recognition for behavioral improvement during their incarceration in correctional institutions. This study aims to analyze the implementation of remission for prisoners convicted of theft at the Class IIA Rantauprapat Correctional Institution, identify the factors influencing its implementation, and examine the policy from the perspective of Islamic Criminal Law. This study employs an empirical legal research method with a qualitative approach. Data were obtained through interviews with officers of the Class IIA Rantauprapat Correctional Institution, observations, and documentary studies, and were subsequently analyzed using qualitative descriptive analysis. The findings indicate that the implementation of remission has been carried out in accordance with Law Number 22 of 2022 concerning Corrections and Regulation of the Minister of Law and Human Rights Number 7 of 2022. Supporting factors in the implementation of remission include good prisoner behavior, active participation in correctional programs, fulfillment of administrative requirements, and the use of the Correctional Database System (Sistem Database Pemasyarakatan/SDP). Meanwhile, the main inhibiting factor is disciplinary violations recorded in Register F. From the perspective of Islamic Criminal Law, the granting of remission is consistent with the concept of jarīmah taʿzīr and maqāṣid al-sharīʿah, as it constitutes an authority of the government (ulil amri) aimed at achieving public welfare through rehabilitation, preventing recidivism, and facilitating the social reintegration of prisoners.

Abstract

Legal protection for children who are victims of sexual abuse is a state obligation that focuses not only on prosecuting perpetrators but also on upholding victims' rights and facilitating their recovery. Although child protection is mandated by Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection, its implementation in the field faces various obstacles. This study aims to analyze the implementation of legal protection for child victims of sexual abuse within the jurisdiction of the Medan City Police (Polrestabes Medan), identify the challenges involved, and formulate strategic solutions to enhance the effectiveness of legal protection for victims. The study employs an empirical-juridical method with a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and document analysis, and subsequently analyzed qualitatively through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that legal protection measures have been implemented, including report intake, child-friendly questioning, investigation, victim support, identity confidentiality, coordination with relevant agencies (such as DP3A, UPTD PPA, hospitals, psychologists, and other institutions), as well as victim rehabilitation and recovery. However, implementation remains suboptimal due to challenges such as victims' reluctance to open up, limited evidence, inconsistencies in victims' statements, and a lack of optimal coordination during the rehabilitation and recovery processes. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen child-friendly questioning procedures, multidisciplinary approaches to evidence gathering, inter-agency synergy, public and family education, and the capacity building of law enforcement officers. This study underscores the importance of integrated protection through preventive, repressive, and restorative approaches.

Abstract

The principle of equality before the law is a fundamental principle of the rule of law that guarantees equal legal status and treatment for every person regardless of social status, position, or profession. However, its implementation in criminal law enforcement may face challenges, particularly when the alleged perpetrator is a law enforcement officer. This study aims to analyze the legal regulation and implementation of the principle of equality before the law in handling the crime of extortion involving members of the Indonesian National Police and civil society, as well as to identify factors that influence its implementation. This study employs a normative juridical method using statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. Legal materials consisting of primary, secondary, and tertiary sources were collected through library research and analyzed qualitatively and normatively. The findings indicate that the principle of equality before the law has a strong constitutional and legal basis and requires criminal proceedings to be conducted objectively, professionally, transparently, and without discrimination. In handling extortion cases, both police officers and civilians are subject to general criminal proceedings. Police officers, however, are additionally subject to professional ethical and disciplinary mechanisms, which constitute supplementary responsibilities and cannot replace criminal liability. The analysis further shows that differences in treatment may arise from law enforcement integrity, institutional culture, transparency, supervision, and the potential influence of institutional status. Therefore, consistent and accountable law enforcement is necessary to ensure that the handling of extortion cases is determined by the alleged criminal conduct and applicable legal standards rather than the perpetrator’s institutional position.
