Juli Legality And Accountability Of The Process Of Destruction Of Evidence Of Illegal Fishing With The Involvement Of A Notary: Legality And Accountability Of The Process Of Destruction Of Evidence Of Illegal Fishing With The Involvement Of A Notary
The destruction of evidence in illegal fishing cases is an important step in law enforcement to ensure that evidence is not misused and in accordance with the provisions of the law. This article discusses the legality and accountability of the process of destroying illegal fishing evidence by highlighting the role of notaries as authorized public officials. This study uses a juridical-normative approach with literature analysis of relevant regulations. The results of the study show that the involvement of notaries contributes significantly to supporting legal transparency and accountability. More specific regulations are needed to increase synergy between notaries and law enforcement agencies in the process of destroying evidence. The destruction of evidence in illegal fishing cases is a very important step in law enforcement to prevent the misuse of evidence and ensure that the legal process runs in accordance with the provisions of the law. Evidence of illegal fishing, such as illegally caught fish, prohibited fishing gear, or boats, often has high economic value and has the potential to cause greater losses if not managed properly. Therefore, the process of destroying evidence not only requires strict supervision, but must also be carried out with valid documentation to provide legal certainty. However, the results of the study also show a number of challenges in practice, including the lack of specific regulations that regulate the involvement of notaries in detail in illegal fishing cases. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen regulations to increase synergy between notaries and law enforcement agencies, such as the police and prosecutor\u27s office, to ensure that the process of destroying evidence is carried out legally, transparently, and accountably
Effectiveness of Criminal Law Enforcement against Corporations: Procedural Analysis and Mechanisms of Cross Country Criminal Justice
The regulation on regional heads in Indonesia, as stipulated in Article 18 of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and the Regional Government Law, prioritizes the principles of democracy and regional autonomy, with an emphasis on direct elections by the people to ensure accountability and legitimacy. However, the appointment of acting regional heads (Pj) that does not involve direct community participation has raised criticism regarding transparency, legitimacy, and lack of public participation. This study aims to formulate regulations related to the appointment of acting regional heads during the transition period to realize responsive law. This study is a normative legal study that prioritizes conceptual and legislative approaches. The results of the study confirm that a responsive legal approach can be a solution, by emphasizing the importance of legal flexibility to respond to community needs, as well as increasing openness, participation, and accountability in the process of appointing Pj. The appointment of Pj by the President and the Minister of Home Affairs without community participation risks worsening the centralization of power, reducing the role of community participation, and damaging the essence of democracy. Therefore, more inclusive reforms are needed in this process to strengthen a government system that is more responsive to community aspirations. Therefore, revisions to the Regional Government Law and the Regional Election Law are very necessary to ensure a more transparent, accountable, and better community involvement in the appointment process for Acting Heads
Reevaluating the -20° Astronomical Dawn Angle: An Islamic Jurisprudential and Astronomical Analysis of Subh Time Determination in South Sulawesi
The -20o dawn standard that applies in Indonesia has become a problem when the results of observations and research show that the appearance of dawn with the -20o standard is considered too fast. Based on this, researchers in this study conducted dawn observations in South Sulawesi at Aparalang Cliff in Bulukumba.

The Legality of Alfamart Acquisition of Lawson: Driving Into the Process With a GMS
Acquisition is a form of corporate action that has a significant impact on the control structure in a company and generally requires the approval of the General Meeting of Shareholders (GMS) as stipulated in Law Number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies (UUPT). However, in practice, not all acquisitions follow this normative flow. This study discusses the legality of the acquisition process carried out by Alfamart against Lawson without going through the GMS mechanism. Using a juridical-normative approach, this article analyzes the provisions of the UUPT and derivative regulations from the Financial Services Authority (OJK), especially POJK Number 17/POJK.04/2020 and POJK Number 42/POJK.04/2020. The results of the study show that even though it did not go through the GMS, the acquisition was still legally valid because it met the exception requirements, namely the transaction value is below 50% of the total equity and the affiliate relationship does not cause a conflict of interest. Thus, Alfamart\u27s actions have been in accordance with the applicable positive legal provisions and reflect the flexibility of the law in modern corporate practic
The Role of Criminal Procedure Law in Banking Corruption Cases Handled by the KPK: Ensuring the Protection of Suspect Rights
Dalam negara hukum yang demokratis seperti Indonesia, hukum acara pidana memegang peranan penting sebagai instrumen penegakan keadilan dan perlindungan hak asasi, namun dalam praktiknya khususnya pada kasus korupsi sektor perbankan yang ditangani KPK sering kali muncul tantangan serius terkait jaminan perlindungan hak-hak tersangka akibat kekuatan kewenangan KPK yang besar dan potensi penyimpangan dari prinsip due process of law. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis penerapan hukum acara pidana oleh KPK dalam menangani kasus-kasus perbankan serta mengevaluasi sejauh mana hukum acara pidana mampu memberikan perlindungan terhadap hak-hak tersangka dalam proses tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode hukum normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan kasus, yang dianalisis secara kualitatif untuk menelaah kesesuaian antara norma hukum acara pidana dengan praktik penegakan hukum oleh KPK dalam kasus perbankan, serta menilai sejauh mana hak-hak tersangka dilindungi dalam proses tersebut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun penerapan hukum acara pidana oleh KPK dalam menangani kasus perbankan efektif dalam pemberantasan korupsi, masih terdapat masalah serius terkait perlindungan hak-hak tersangka, terutama dalam hal penyidikan, penahanan, dan eksposur media. Meskipun hukum acara pidana Indonesia secara normatif telah menjamin hak-hak dasar tersangka, praktiknya masih menghadapi tantangan implementasi, seperti pelanggaran prosedural dalam penanganan kasus perbankan yang kompleks. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan harmonisasi antara kewenangan KPK dan ketentuan KUHAP, penguatan regulasi, serta peningkatan profesionalisme aparat penegak hukum untuk memastikan proses hukum yang adil dan melindungi hak-hak tersangka secara efektif
Informal Constitutional Change in Indonesia
The interpretation of the constitution by the Constitutional Court marks the occurrence of informal changes to the constitution as a result of the dialectic between the constitutional document (the 1945 Constitution) and certain primary forces of constitutional change. This study employs four approaches: the conceptual approach, the statutory approach, the case approach, and the comparative approach. This study concludes that several articles in the 1945 Constitution, following the amendments, have changed ius constituendum, as the norms that apply as ius constitutum are those that have evolved through the method of constitutional interpretation by the Constitutional Court. It is this ius constitutum that functions as a quasi-constitution. 
Reformulation of Nominee Agreement Policy in Agrarian Law as an Effort to Harmonize Freedom of Contract with Restrictions on Foreign Land Ownership
The practice of nominee agreements in land ownership by foreign nationals in Indonesia has given rise to a conflict between the principle of freedom of contract in the Civil Code and the principle of agrarian sovereignty in the Basic Agrarian Law. This inconsistency has created legal uncertainty, legal loopholes, and unequal protection for the parties to the agreement. The impact is evident in the prevalence of land disputes and the weak protection of local communities as nominees. This study aims to analyze the normative contradiction between freedom of contract and the prohibition of land ownership by foreigners, and to formulate a model of legal harmonization that ensures legal certainty and agrarian sovereignty. The method used is normative legal analysis, employing an approach that examines regulations, legal principles, and court rulings. This study finds that the practice of nominee agreements in foreign land ownership in Indonesia creates a conflict between the principle of freedom of contract and the principle of agrarian sovereignty. This leads to legal uncertainty, legal evasion, and the risk of exploitation of strategic resources. To address this, legal harmonization is needed by affirming the supremacy of the UUPA and strengthening regulations prohibiting nominee agreements, accompanied by verified green investment schemes
The Enhancement of the Vice President of Indonesia\u27s Strategic Role and Constitutional Functions as Mandated by Article 4 of the 1945 Constitution
This study explores the constitutional position and authority of the Vice President within the framework of Indonesia’s presidential system, highlighting the persistent ambiguity and limited normative foundation of the office since the adoption of the 1945 Constitution and its subsequent amendments. Although Article 4(2) of the Constitution mentions that the President is assisted by a Vice President, it fails to define the division of responsibilities or to grant the Vice President independent public legal authority. As a result, the Vice President’s functions are largely contingent upon delegation from the President, leading to a dependency that undermines institutional clarity and effectiveness. The absence of detailed regulation creates a legal vacuum (recht vacuum) and contributes to inefficiencies in governance. In response, this paper proposes a comprehensive reformulation of the Vice President’s role and powers, including clearer constitutional authority, proportional task distribution, strengthened coordinative and representative functions, and the enactment of specific legislation governing the office. These reforms aim to reinforce the Vice President’s contribution to state administration, enhance legal certainty, and promote good governance. Ultimately, a well-structured and constitutionally grounded relationship between the President and Vice President is essential to the development of a more effective and integrated executive leadership in Indonesia
The Essence of Muallaf as a Zakat Recipient According to the Interpretation of Surah At-Tawbah Verse 60
Muallaf (new converts to Islam) are one of the eight categories (asnaf) entitled to receive zakat, as mentioned in Surah At-Tawbah verse 60. However, the essence and criteria of muallaf are not clearly defined, raising questions about who truly qualifies under this category. This study aims to examine the concept of muallaf from the perspective of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah by analyzing relevant textual evidence, including hadiths and Qur’anic exegesis. The research employs a library research method to explore and examine data from literary sources in depth. The process includes collecting, reviewing, recording, and processing relevant references. More than mere reading and documentation, library research demands analytical skills to produce systematic and meaningful findings. This study adopts a qualitative normative approach. Specifically, it falls under the category of normative Islamic legal research with a philosophical orientation, as it seeks to uncover and understand the core values and fundamental principles within Islamic legal norms that guide legal reasoning. The findings of this study, based on the interpretation of Surah At-Tawbah verse 60, categorize muallaf into two groups: Muslim muallaf and non-Muslim muallaf. The former includes: individuals newly converted to Islam whose faith is still fragile; respected Muslims who lead their communities; Muslims willing to strive and engage in jihad against non-believers; and Muslims needed to collect zakat from those unwilling to give. The latter group consists of: individuals expected to convert to Islam, and individuals whose harm is feare
Specific Minimum Criminal Penalty Regulations For Narcotics And The Purpose Of Their Implementation In The Criminal System: Specific Minimum Criminal Penalty Regulations For Narcotics And The Purpose Of Their Implementation In The Criminal System
Narcotics are substances or drugs derived from plants or synthesized that can cause changes in consciousness, loss of sensation, reduce pain, and lead to dependence. Drug abuse, which is increasingly concerning in Indonesia, has become a problem involving various levels of society, from schoolchildren to government employees. To address this problem, the Indonesian government, through Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics, regulates the eradication of drug abuse and illicit trafficking, including the imposition of criminal sanctions with specific minimum penalties. This study examines the provisions of specific minimum penalties in Law Number 35 of 2009 and the purpose of their application in the criminal justice system. The research method used is normative juridical, analyzing relevant laws and literature. The results indicate that the specific minimum penalties in Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics aim to reduce the impact of drug abuse and provide a more substantial deterrent effect on perpetrators, thus preventing similar crimes in the future. This provision also seeks to reduce disparities in sentencing and send a clear signal about the importance of drug prevention. Furthermore, the implementation of special minimum sentences is expected to protect the public from the impacts of drug abuse and illicit trafficking, as well as reduce the number of cases. This provision reflects the international trend in regulating criminal sanctions to create social justice and more effective law enforcement, while simultaneously preventing further drug abuse.Narkotika adalah zat atau obat yang berasal dari tanaman atau hasil sintesis yang dapat menyebabkan perubahan kesadaran, hilangnya sensasi, mengurangi rasa nyeri, dan menimbulkan ketergantungan. Penyalahgunaan narkoba yang semakin memprihatinkan di Indonesia telah menjadi masalah yang melibatkan berbagai lapisan masyarakat, mulai dari anak sekolah hingga pegawai pemerintah. Untuk mengatasi masalah ini, pemerintah Indonesia, melalui Undang-Undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2009 tentang Narkotika, mengatur pemberantasan penyalahgunaan dan peredaran gelap narkotika, termasuk pengenaan sanksi pidana dengan pidana minimum tertentu. Penelitian ini mengkaji ketentuan pidana minimum tertentu dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2009 dan tujuan penerapannya dalam sistem peradilan pidana. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah yuridis normatif, dengan menganalisis peraturan perundang-undangan dan kepustakaan yang relevan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pidana minimum tertentu dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2009 tentang Narkotika bertujuan untuk mengurangi dampak penyalahgunaan narkotika dan memberikan efek jera yang lebih substansial bagi pelaku, sehingga mencegah terjadinya tindak pidana serupa di kemudian hari. Ketentuan ini juga bertujuan untuk mengurangi disparitas hukuman dan memberikan sinyal yang jelas tentang pentingnya pencegahan narkoba. Lebih lanjut, penerapan hukuman minimum khusus diharapkan dapat melindungi masyarakat dari dampak penyalahgunaan dan peredaran gelap narkoba, serta mengurangi jumlah kasus. Ketentuan ini mencerminkan tren internasional dalam mengatur sanksi pidana untuk menciptakan keadilan sosial dan penegakan hukum yang lebih efektif, sekaligus mencegah penyalahgunaan narkoba lebih lanjut
