Đorđe Đelić

The author deals with culpability as a subjective element of the general notion of a criminal offense, which must be an integral part of every indictment and the operative part (disposition) of the judgment of conviction. First, the article presents the theoretical understanding of the notion of a criminal offense as accepted by the Serbian legislator and the notion of culpability in Serbian criminal law theory and current legislation. Then, the author focuses on the content of indictments filed against the accused person, including the prosecutor’s recommendation for imposing criminal sanctions against a juvenile offender, and the content of the judgment on conviction, with specific reference to culpability as an essential element of every indictment and the judgment on conviction. The author further analyzes the issue of the subjective and objective identity of the indictment and judgment in theory and legislation, with focus of culpability and existence or non-existence of a violation of the identity of indictment and judgment in case of entering culpability into the disposition of the judgment on conviction. Finally, the author provides examples from the practice of higher-instance courts in Serbia and a critical standpoint on the legal reasoning in the decisions where the court found a violation of the Criminal Code, given that the scope of an indictment has been exceeded in terms of culpability.

This scientific article analyzes the basic features and elements of the criminal offense of insult from the theoretical and normative aspect, with specific reference to the analysis of the conditions necessary for the application of the special legal ground for excluding illegality of offensive speech, stipulated in Article 170 (4) of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Serbia. Relying on the critical analysis of national criminal legislation and a brief review of national courts’ practice, the author points out to the contradiction of adopted legal standpoints when interpreting the disputed provisions, and emphasizes the importance of ensuring uniform and consistent court practice in this field. Proper and complete consideration of the criminal offense of insult, and especially the ground for excluding the illegality of the taken actions, stipulated in the provisions of Article 170 (4) of the Serbian Criminal Code, calls for precise interpretation of these provisions. Inadequate conduct of judicial bodies entails the possibility of convicting the perpetrator of the criminal offense of insult, even if the requisite conditions prescribed in the positive law have not been satisfied.

Terdapat cukup banyak masyarakat yang dengan sengaja melakukan kecurangan-kecurangan dan melalaikan kewajibannya dalam melaksanakan pembayaran pajak yang telah ditetapkan sehingga menyebabkan timbulnya tunggakan pajak. Menyikapi hal tersebut, Pemerintah mengesahkan Undang-undang Tax Amnesty Nomor 11 Tahun 2016 Tentang Pengampunan Pajak. Salah satu jenis pengampunan yang ditawarkan adalah memberikan penghapusan tindak pidana bagi Wajib Pajak (WP) yang melanggar undang-undang. Oleh sebab itu, hal ini menjadi menarik untuk diteliti karena dapat dianggap sebagai bentuk pengkhianatan terhadap rakyat miskin atau WP yang taat pajak. Masalah pokok dalam penelitian ini adalah apakah penghapusan sanksi pidana terkait pengampunan pajak (tax amnesty) sudah sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip pemidanaan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dan menjelaskan penghapusan sanksi pidana telah sesuai atau tidak dengan prinsip-prinsip pemidanaan. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian yuridis normatif dengan tujuan mengkaji asas-asas dan kaidah-kaidah yang terdapat dalam ilmu hukum. Data yang digunakan terdiri dari bahan hukum primer, bahan hukum sekunder dan bahan hukum tersier. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam hal penghapusan sanksi pidana dalam tax amnesty tidaklah sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip penghapusan pidana dalam konsep KUHP, yaitu alasan pembenar dan alasan pemaaf karena apabila harta tersebut berasal dari hasil korupsi, hal tersebut bukanlah merupakan perbuatan yang patut dan benar untuk dimaafkan. Disarankan kebijakan dalam pengampunan pajak (tax amnesty) sebaiknya tidak diberlakukan penghapusan pada unsur tindak pidana, apalagi dalam tindak pidana tersebut terdapat unsur yang merugikan negara.There are enough people who deliberately commit fraud and neglect their obligations in carrying out the payment of taxes that have been set so as to cause the arrears of taxes. In response, the Government passed the Tax Amnesty Act Number 11 Year 2016 About Tax Amnesty. One type of amnesty offered is to provide the abolition of a criminal offense for a Taxpayer (WP) that violates the law. Therefore, it is interesting to investigate because it can be considered as a form of betrayal of the poor or WP who are tax-conscious. The main problem in this research is whether the abolition of criminal sanctions related to tax amnesty is in line with the principles of punishment. This study aims to determine and explain the elimination of criminal sanctions are appropriate or not with the principles of punishment. This study is a normative juridical research with the aim of studying the principles and rules contained in the science of law. The data used consist of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials and tertiary legal materials. The results indicate that of the abolition of criminal sanctions in the tax amnesty is not in accordance with the principles of criminal abolition in the concept of the Criminal Code, namely the justification and reasons for forgiveness because if the property is derived from the corruption, it is not a proper and proper act to be forgiven. It is recommended that the tax amnesty should not be abolished on the element of criminal acts, morever in the criminal act there are elements that harm the state.

Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage basically adhere to the principle of monogamy. Although not essential to the principle of monogamy, there is still a polygamist who often take shortcuts to legalize polygynous marriage. Polygamous marriage act is a violation of Law No. 1 Year 1974 on Marriage, and Government Regulation No. 9 of 1975 on implementation of Law No. 1 Year 1974 on Marriage, although the threat of criminal sanction only published in the Government Regulation. Another case in the Criminal Code (KUHP), the sanction of polygamy as criminal action regulated in Article 279. Is the threat of criminal sanctions contained in the Criminal Code and Regulation No. 9 of 1975 in line with the values and ideals of community law in Indonesia? The purpose of this study is to determine the applicative policy for polygamy as criminal offense in marriages in Indonesia’s legal system and to formulate the concept of criminalisation policy for polygamous marriage act as criminal offense in the Indonesia’s legal system of marriage for the future. This is due to criminal sanctions in Article 279 of the Criminal Code and Law No. 1 of 1974 and Article 45 of Government Regulation Number 9 Year 1975, there is still a legal synchrony. The concept of future criminal polygamy criminal policies should apply the principle of ultimum remedium otherwise known as the “last drug”. Whatever the reason for the imposition of criminal punishment will still have a negative effect on the perpetrator and his family and will cause sociological and psychological implications if criminal sanctions are applied. In the legal state of Pancasila especially for the Muslims, the concept of marriage is a worship then it must be fostered, if there are deviations should not be destroyed by a criminal threat. Therefore, to overcome the criminal act of polygamy the need of a non penal criminal policy means, that is prevention without punishment.

The act of disposing of a newly born child is obviously a criminal offense, since this act does not necessarily reflect the humanism side of the human person. an act which the rule of law is proclaimed as a prohibited act is called a criminal act or it may be referred to as a crime. According to its nature and nature, these criminal acts are unlawful acts. These acts can also harm society, in the sense of contradicting or impeding the implementation of the social order of society that is considered good and fair. There are 3 (three) legal instruments that contain criminal sanctions against the perpetrators of the crime of infant / child disposal namely the Criminal Code, Law No. 23 of 2004 on the Elimination of Domestic Violence, and Law No. 35 of 2014 on Child Protection. However, newly born child abusers are still not eliminated, and one of the factors is the lack of conviction of criminal prosecution.
