Since 1981, marked by the enactment of law number 8 of 1981 on criminal procedure law, it has become a consensus to abandon the Cartesian paradigm embodied in the inquisitoire principle. The inquisitoire principle sees any person drawn into a criminal justice struggle as an object. The Criminal Procedure Code (CPC) through the philosophical foundation of Pancasila, commands to adopt the accusatoire principle, in honor of the withdrawn party as a person entirely. However, the KUHAP/CPC formers forget the institutional legal culture of the thrown (gowerfen-sein) criminal justice system in the myth of modernity that is the objectification of human being. So that the law enforcement officers (investigators, public prosecutors, judges) always ignore Pancasila as the philosophical foundation of thought in carrying out the law.

In criminal law, a person charged with a criminal offense may be punished if it meets two matters, namely his act is unlawful, and the perpetrator of a crime may be liable for the indicated action (the offender's error) or the act may be dismissed to the perpetrator, and there is no excuse. The reasons may result in the death or the removal of the implied penalty. But it becomes a matter of how if the Letter of Statement Khilaf is the answer to solve the legal problems. The person who refuses or does not do what has been stated in the letters is often called "wanprestasi" because the statement is categorized as an agreement. The statement includes an agreement which is the domain of civil law or criminal law, so its application in the judicial system can be determined. This should be reviewed in the application of the law, are there any rules governing wrong statements in the criminal justice system. By using a declaration of khilaf as a way out of criminal matters, then the statement should be known in juridical rules. This study uses normative juridical methods, by conceptualizing the law as a norm rule which is a benchmark of human behavior, with emphasis on secondary data sources collected from the primary source of the legislation. The result of this research is that the statement of khilaf has legality, it is based on Jurisprudence No. 3901 K / Pdt / 1985 jo Article 189 Paragraph (1) of Indonesian criminal procedure law. However, this oversight letter needs to be verified in front of the court to be valid evidence, but this letter of error is not a deletion of a criminal offense, because the culpability of the defendant has justified the crime he committed. Such recognition, cannot make it free from the crime that has been committed.Keywords: Legality, Letter of Statement, Criminal Justice System

<p>Anak yang berhadapan dengan hukum dibagi menjadi tiga katagori, yaitu anak yang berkonflik dengan hukum, anak korban, dan anak saksi. Selama ini, perhatian yang diberikan lebih banyak tertuju pada anak yang berkonflik dengan hukum dan anak korban.  Kedudukan anak saksi kurang untuk dikaji.  Penelitian ini dimaksudkan untuk mengkaji lebih dalam kedudukan anak saksi dalam peradilan pidana anak. Permasalahan yang diangkat dalam penelitian ini yakni<em> </em>terkait pengaturan anak saksi dalam hukum positif dan bentuk perlindungan terhadap anak saksi dalam sistem peradilan pidana anak. Penelitian ini termasuk dalam penelitian hukum normatif. Dengan demikian, sumber data yang digunakan adalah data sekunder, terutama yang berasal dari bahan hukum primer berupa perundnag-undangan terkait. Dari data yang diperoleh, selanjutnya akan dianalisis secara kualitatif, sehingga akan menghasilkan suatu penelitian yang bersifat deskriptif analisis. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, didapatkan hasil bahwa undang-undang yang mengatur paling lengkap tentang anak saksi dalam sisitem peradilan pidana anak adalah UU No. 11 Tahun 2012. Pengaturan mengenai anak saksi cenderung tidak sistematis dalam suatu undang-undang. Ketentuan mengenai anak saksi tersebar dalam berbagai ketentuan perundang-undangan seperti UU No. 8 Tahun 1981 tentang Hukum Acara Pidana, UU Perlindungan Anak, UU Sistem Peradilan Pidana Anak, dan UU Perlindungan Saksi dan Korban. Patut disayangkan, belum diatur tentang jaminan keselamatan bagi anak saksi dan pemulihan mental bagi anak saksi.</p><p><em>Children who are dealing with the law are divided into three categories, children in conflict with the law, children of victim, and children of witness. So far, more attention has been paid to children in conflict with the law and children of victims. The position of children of witness is less to be studied. This study is intended to examine more deeply the position of witnesses in the juvenile criminal justice system. The problem raised in this study is related to the arrangement of children of witnesses in positive law and the form of protection of witness children in the criminal justice system of children. This research is included in normative legal research. Thus, the data source used is secondary data, especially those derived from primary legal materials in the form of related regulations. From the data obtained, then it will be analyzed qualitatively, so that it will produce a descriptive analytical study. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the law that regulates the most complete set of witness children in the criminal justice system is Law No. 11 of 2012. Arrangements regarding witness children tend not to be systematic in a law. Provisions regarding witness children are spread in various legislative provisions such as Law No. 8 of 1981 concerning Criminal Procedure Law, Child Protection Act, Child Criminal Justice System Law, and Witness and Victim Protection Act. Unfortunately, it has not been regulated about the guarantee of safety for witness children and mental recovery for witness children.</em><em></em></p>

This article discusses flaws of Indonesia’s criminal procedural laws through an analysis of the Jessica Wongso case. After a televised trial in 2016, Wongso was convicted of murdering her friend Salihin, by putting cyanide in her coffee at a Jakarta café, and sentenced to 20 years’ imprisonment. The conviction was upheld on appeal in late 2018. The police obtained very limited evidence against Wongso, leaving prosecutors unable to determine the cause of Salihin’s death, much less to prove convincingly that Wongso was the perpetrator. By contrast, the defense mustered significant exculpatory evidence. But the judges, at first instance and on appeal, took an uncritical view of the prosecution evidence and ignored the defense case. Throughout the investigation and trial, Wongso was not accorded the presumption of innocence, partly because of Indonesia’s flawed or absent formal legal infrastructure for arrests, detentions, searches, and disclosure of prosecution evidence to the defense. It is also because highly prejudicial press coverage before and during trials is not prohibited and because judges lack professionalism. All this suggests a strong need for reform—not only to Indonesia’s criminal procedure law, but also to the way it is applied in practice.

An error in persona in the implementation of the criminal justice system is a type of destructive action by law enforcement officers that can cause harm to someone. The use of authority by investigators to arrest and detain and detention and prosecution by public prosecutors is a concrete form of persona error. This study focused on the mechanism of a compensation claim through pre-trial due to a persona error in implementing the criminal justice system and an impediment to the implementation of the pre-trial judge's decision on the granting of the compensation claim. The method used is normative and empirical juridical research. The results showed that the mechanism of a claim for compensation through pre-trial due to an error in person in implementing the criminal justice system was carried out fundamentally at the formulation stage. These formulations outlined in the Code Of Criminal Procedure (Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Acara Pidana/ KUHAP) and Government Regulation Concerning Implementation of The Book of Criminal Procedure Law as a basis for the implementation of pre-trial and the application stage. The statutory factors of Decree of the Minister of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia Number: 983 / KMK.01 / 1983 (Keputusan Menteri Keuangan RI Nomor 983/KMK.01/1983) are an impediment in implementing the pre-trial judge's determination of the compensation claim because the regulation governs administrative procedures that are lengthy and involve government agencies.

Criminal procedure in China had been governed by the 1979 Criminal Procedure Law (CPL 1979). This was amended in 1996 (the Amendment). In many aspects, the Amendment introduces important changes to the previous procedures and significantly redistributes the existing division of powers within the criminal justice system. It restricts police power and the prosecution's discretion. It enhances the position of the court and differentiates the role of judges. It also offers more protection for the rights of the accused and enhances the position of defence lawyers in the criminal process in substantive and procedural aspects. Consequently criminal lawyers are expected to play a more active and meaningful role in criminal defence.
