Kebijakan Moderasi Pidana Mati dalam RUU KUHP Perspektif Nilai-Nilai Pancasila

Draft Law on the Criminal Code (RUU KUHP) still gives place to the death penalty as a type of crime. This policy is in the line of the establishment of the Constitutional Court which considers the death penalty to be constitutional. Even though there has been a decision on the constitutionality of the death penalty, the polemic about its existence still continues. So that we do not sway with various opinions, it is necessary that the death penalty policy is viewed from the perspective of Pancasila, because Pancasila is a legal ideal and at the same time as a Fundamental Norm of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. This study aims to answer whether the death penalty moderation policy in the Criminal Code Bill is justified from the perspective of Pancasila or not. This research is a doctrinal legal research with a statutory approach, a conceptual approach and a philosophical approach. The results showed that the death penalty policy in the Draft Criminal Code does not conflict with Pancasila.

The Relationship

Tulisan ini ingin menjawab dua isu utama mengenai hubungan hukum internasional dan pengujian undang-undang oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi RI (MKRI). Isu pertama adalah legitimasi penggunaan hukum internasional sebagai alat interpretasi dalam pengujian undang-undang, sedangkan isu kedua adalah urgensi penguasaan hukum internasional oleh hakim MKRI. Tulisan ini merupakan penelitian hukum yang menggunakan pendekatan konseptual dan pendekatan historis dalam menjelaskan perkembangan pengujian undang-undang di Indonesia sekaligus menemukan legitimasi penggunaan hukum internasional oleh MK RI. Kesimpulan dari tulisan ini menegaskan bahwa hukum internasional memiliki sumbangsih yang penting dalam perannya sebagai alat interpretasi dalam proses pengujian undang-undang oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi, khususnya terkait hak asasi manusia. Justifikasi keabsahan praktik penggunaan hukum internasional tersebut ditarik dari tradisi ketatanegaraan yang secara implisit dikehendaki UUD NRI Tahun 1945. Manfaat positif yang diberikan hukum internasional nyatanya harus disertai juga dengan penguasaan hukum internasional oleh hakim MK RI supaya hukum internasional dapat digunakan secara tepat. Pembahasan dalam tulisan ini dibagi ke dalam empat sub bahasan inti yakni, pengujian undang-undang, penggunaan hukum internasional sebagai the interpretative tool dalam pengujian undang-undang oleh MK, legitimasi penggunaan hukum internasional sebagai the interpretative tool dalam pengujian undang-undang, pentingnya penguasaan hukum internasional oleh hakim MK.This article intentionally answers two principal issues regarding the relationship between international law and judicial review by the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia. The first issue is the legitimacy of international use as an interpretative tool in judicial review. The second issue talks about the necessity of urgent international law mastery by the Constitutional Court’s judges. This legal research utilizes both a conceptual approach and a historical approach to explain the development of judicial review in Indonesia, and to find legitimacy of international law by the Constitutional Court. The analysis in this article affirms that international law positively contributes as an interpretative tool in judicial review by the Constitutional Court, particularly pertaining to human rights. A justification of a legitimate international law use is withdrawn from constitutional tradition which is implicitly desired by the Indonesian Constitution (UUD NRI 1945). Since international law has provided better insights into norms, a mastery of international law should be encouraged. There are four main discussions in this article: judicial review, application of international law in judicial review process, legitimacy of international law application in judicial review, and the importance of international law mastering by Constitutional Court judges.

The purpose of this research is to determine the constitutional complaint mechanism based on comparisons in other countries, practices, and adaptation of constitutional complaints under the authority of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia. Many cases with constitutional complaint substance have been submitted to the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia even though they don’t have this authority. This research uses a normative legal research method using a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, a comparative approach, and a case approach. This research indicates that the constitutional complaint mechanism in Germany, South Korea, and South Africa has been well implemented. In practice, cases with constitutional complaint substance are filed to the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia by changing the form by using the legal means of a judicial review, such as case number 16/PUU-VI/ 2008, case number 140/PUU-XIII/2015 and case number 102/PUU-VII/2009. Due to the consideration of the structure, substance, and culture of law, adaptation of constitutional complaint within the authority of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia needs to be carried out by amending Law Number 24 of 2003 jo. Law Number 7 of 2020 concerning the Constitutional Court.

Constitutional Identity

ABSTRAKSetiap negara memiliki ciri konstitusi yang berbeda-beda, begitu pula dengan identitas konstitusi yang dilatar belakangi oleh sejarah dan politik. Di Indonesia, Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945 merupakan hukum dasar tertulis yang berisikan prinsip-prinsip dasar bagi peraturan lainnya. Dalam kaitannya dengan ciri dari suatu negara, maka identitas dari UUD 1945 sebagai konstitusi negara harus dilindungi. Hal ini erat kaitannya pada saat melakukan perubahan atau amandemen, sehingga identitas konstitusi harus tetap terjaga dan tidak mengubah diluar kesepakatan sehingga tidak menjadikannya sebagai sebuah konstitusi yang baru. Tulisan ini akan membahas sejauh mana perlindungan identitas konstitusi dapat menciptakan ketahanan konstitusi dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi perlindungan konstitusi. Penelitian hukum normatif digunakan dalam penelitian ini dengan menggunakan pendekatan konseptual, dengan demikian didapatkan hasil bahwa perlindungan identitas konstitusi berpengaruh terhadap ketahanan konstitusi, khususnya apabila terjadi perubahan atau amandemen sehingga ruh konstitusi tetap tercermin sebagai ciri dari bangsa. Diperlukan lembaga khusus untuk memeriksa dan mengawasi perubahan konstitusi Indonesia yaitu dengan memberikan kewenangan tambahan kepada Mahkamah Konstitusi untuk menguji konstitusionalitas terhadap perubahan UUD 1945. Kata Kunci: identitas konstitusi; konstitusi; perlindungan ABSTRACTEvery country has different constitutional characteristics, as well as a constitutional identity which is based on history and politics. In Indonesia, the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia is a written basic law which contains the basic principles for other regulations. In relation to the characteristics of a country, the identity of the 1945 Constitution as the state constitution must be protected. This is closely related when making changes or amendments, so that the identity of the constitution must be maintained and not change outside the agreement so as not to make it a new constitution. This paper will discuss the extent to which constitutional identity protection can create constitutional resilience and the factors that affect constitutional protection. Normative legal research is used in this study using a conceptual approach, thus the results show that the protection of constitutional identity has an effect on the resilience of the constitution, especially when changes or amendments occur so that the spirit of the constituency is still reflected as a characteristic of the nation. A special institution is needed to examine and supervise changes to the Indonesian constitution, namely by giving additional powers to the Constitutional Court to examine the constitutionality of the amendments to the 1945 Constitution.

AbstractArticle 22 paragraph (1) Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia Year 1945 gives the President attributive authority to determine PERPPU in compelling emergencies. The position of PERPPU is regulated in Article 7 paragraph (1) letter c of Law No. 12 of 2011 with the formulation of the phrase "UU/Perppu." The use of the slash (/) raises several interpretations, so in this study, there are two problem formulations, namely the meaning of the slash (/) and the legal implications of the use of the slash (/). This legal research is a normative study using a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, and a historical approach. Sources of standard materials used are primary, secondary, and tertiary, which are collected by the method of inventory and categorization and using the method of literature study. The analysis technique used in this research is the normative analysis technique, with legal interpretation to obtain answers and prescriptions related to the legal issues raised in this study. The results of this legal research are related to the meaning of the slash line in the phrase "UU/Perppu" in Article 7 paragraph (1) of Law No. 12 of 2011 is defined by a punctuation mark that states the alternative nature in a sentence. Judging from the hierarchy of statutory regulations, it is can detect that UU/Perppu has an equal or equal position, so it is considered similar because the contents, functions, and content of the range are the same. Second, the legal implications that arise, by equalizing the position of the contents, processes, and content of the Perppu content with the Law, all provisions regulated in the Law should also be controlling by Perppu, including the regulation of criminal conditions. Apart from that, concerning the Perppu examination, the Constitutional Court decision No. 138/PUU-VII/2009 stated that the Constitutional Court had the authority to review Perppu.Keywords: government regulation instead of law (Perppu); legal implications; slash lineAbstrakPasal 22 ayat (1) UUD NRI Tahun 1945 memasrahkan kewenangan atributif pada Presiden untuk memutuskan Perppu dalam hal ikhwal kegentingan yang mendesak. Kedudukan Perppu diatur dalam Pasal 7 ayat (1) huruf c UU No. 12-2011dengan rumusan frasa “UU/Perppu”. Penggunaan tanda baca garis miring (/) tersebut menimbulkan beberapa penafsiran, maka pada penelitian ini ada dua rumusan masalah yakni makna garis miring (/) dan implikasi hukum yang ditimbulkan terhadap penggunaan garis miring (/) tersebut. Penelitian hukum ini ialah penelitian normatif dengan memakai pendekatan peraturan perundang-undangan, konseptual, serta historis. Sumber hukum yang dipakai yakni primer, sekunder serta tersier yang dikumpulkan dengan metode inventarisasi dan kategorisasi serta menggunakan metode studi kepustakaan. Teknik analisis yang dipakai pada penelitian ini ialah teknik analisis normatif yang menggunakan metode penafsiran hukum sehingga diperoleh jawaban dan preskripsi terkait rumusan masalah yang diajukan pada penelitian ini. Hasil penelitian hukum ini, pertama terkait makna garis miring dalam frasa “UU/Perppu” pada Pasal 7 ayat (1) UU No. 12-2011diartikan bagaikan sebuah tanda baca yang menyatakan sifat alternatif dalam suatu kalimat. Dilihat dari hierarki peraturan peraturan perundang-undangan dapat diketahui jika UU/Perppu mempunyai perananan yang setara maka dianggap sejenis karena isi, fungsi serta materi muatannya adalah sama. Kedua, implikasi hukum yang ditimbulkan, dengan disamakannya kedudukan isi, fungsi, dan materi muatan Perppu dengan UU maka seluruh ketentuan yang diatur dalam UU seharusnya juga diatur dalam Perppu termasuk pengaturan ketentuan pidana. Selain itu terkait dengan pengujian Perppu, dalam putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi K No.138/PUU-VII/2009 mengungkapkan jika Mahkamah Konstitusi berwenang untuk melaksanakan pengujian terhadap Perppu.

The Republic

Freedom of political expression has not been fully guaranteed in the Indonesian legal system. One of the most prominent in the legal debate is the matter of treason (makar) charges against political expressions of self-determination. In the case of Papua, many Papuans have been detained, criminalised, and even killed because of their political expression. Interestingly, the Constitutional Court, through its decision Number 7/PUU-XV/2017, provided guidance in its ‘ratio decidendi’ argument, specifically the interpretation of treason phrases in the Criminal Code. Interpretation is given by the Constitutional Court after seeing the reality that law enforcement has been arbitrarily abused by the application of the treason article. This is contrary to the freedom of association, opinion and expression, as guaranteed in the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. This article discusses how the application of the phrase treason in law enforcement, especially in connection with the conviction of many Papuans after the Surabaya anti-racism rallies in September 2019. A number of district court decisions on dozens of convicted Papuans show that the legal system that guarantees freedom of political expression has not changed much and law enforcement in fact emphasises the position of racial discrimination and is far below the standard of human rights law. Abstrak Kebebasan ekspresi politik belum sepenuhnya dijamin dalam sistem hukum Indonesia. Salah satu yang paling mengemuka dalam perdebatan hukum adalah soal tuduhan makar terhadap ekspresi politik menentukan nasib sendiri. Dalam kasus Papua, tidak sedikit jumlah warga Papua yang ditahan, dikriminalkan, hingga tewas terbunuh karena soal ekspresi politiknya. Menariknya, Mahkamah Konstitusi melalui putusannya Nomor 7/PUU-XV/2017 memberikan panduan dalam argumen ratio decidendinya, khusus interpretasi frasa makar dalam Kitab-Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana. Penafsiran diberikan oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi setelah melihat realitas penegakan hukum telah banyak disalahgunakan penerapan pasal makar. Hal demikian bertentangan dengan kebebasan berkumpul, berpendapat dan berekspresi, sebagaimana dijamin dalam Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945. Artikel ini membahas bagaimana penerapan frasa makar dalam penegakan hukumnya, khususnya berkaitan dengan dipidananya banyak warga Papua setelah aksi anti rasisme Surabaya pada September 2019. Sejumlah putusan pengadilan negeri atas puluhan warga Papua yang dipidana tersebut memperlihatkan sistem hukum yang menjamin kebebasan ekspresi politik tidak banyak berubah dan penegakan hukum justru menegaskan posisi diskriminasi rasial serta jauh dari standar hukum hak asasi manusia.
