The enforcement of the death penalty in Indonesia has become a challenge for Indonesian Catholic Church in defending the dignity of human being and his right for life.  Through a literature study, this article will highlight the rule of Catholic Church o death penalty  and its implications for pastoral activities. The study argues that the dignity of human being is based on its nature as rational, free will and conscience creature. Moreover God has created human beings according to His own image and has redeemed them when destroyed by their own sins. Death penalty is essentially against the dignity of human being and human rights, especially the right to life. Therefore, its enforcement must consider the safety and protection of human rights. The death penalty is only allowed for extraordinary crimes against humanity and is carried out to protect the human rights of others as well as through fair, right and objective justice. The study concludes that in order  to protect human rights and the dignity of human being in Indonesia,  the Indonesian Catholic Church, through its pastoral works, must promote and defend the noble dignity of human beings and their right to life (pro life pastoral), carry out pastoral of forgiveness and of mercy to the setenced to death, criticize and oversee every trial which results in the death sentence to the defendant (critical prophetic pastoral).

The Committee, as an authority appointed to oversee compliance with the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, had to decide on the issue of Italy’s responsibility for failing to provide assistance to a boat in distress, even if the area in which the vessel was located was not within the territory of this state and other acts of international law attribute the responsibility for executing the rescue operation to a third country. According to the Committee’s views, which applied extraterritorial approach to the protection of the right to life, whenever states have the opportunity to take action for the protection of human rights they should do everything possible in a given situation to help people in need.

In this article the author analyses some problems related to defining of biomedicine and bioethics through international law. As he says, numerous rules in this field are literally scattered around and can be found in various international documents. The author presents in detail the first international agreement that defines this subject - it is Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Dignity of the Human Being with regards to the Application of Biology and Medicine: Convention on Human Rights and Biomedicine, adopted by the Council of Europe in 1996. He is of the opinion that very rapid and complex development of scientific knowledge in the field of biomedicine produces new problems. For that reason there should be soon adopted a convention or charter of universal character that would codify as precisely and fully as possible the rules in the fields of biomedicine and bioethics.

The article is about the main points of the minors arrest and detention who are suspected in a criminal offense under paragraph 5 (d) of Article 5 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms of 1950; the legality of the minors arrest and detention, rights and freedoms. The special attention is paid to the study of the pointed legal positions of the European Court of Human Rights. The importance of the study is connected with the fact that the right to the liberty and security is one of the most important rights included in the list of internationally recognized human rights and freedoms. From the point of the generally accepted classification in the law theory and Russian constitutional law, as well as in the theory of international law, the analysing law belongs to the civil (personal) rights. In this regard, the right to the liberty and security can be characterized as a law that has a natural character and it is closely connected with the nature of man.Detention or arrest is the most severe measure; it is applied only on the basis of a court decision which is based only on the results of consideration which is accepted as a result of the court’s learning of the relevant petition submitted by an investigator or inquiry officer

Evidence and evidence are of particular importance in criminal proceedings, as, together with evidence, they are closely linked to the realization of the principle of finding out the truth, as well as to the fact that in most criminal cases there are problems related to evidence and means of proof. The legality of the evidence depends on the issuance of a decision to convict or acquit the person in a criminal trial. Legal regulations are closely correlated with the provisions of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, in particular Article 6, the right to a fair trial. In this context, a criterion of applicability of this article in criminal matters lies in the nature of the procedure; the text refers to the right to be tried by a court, in the sense of court, which must decide on the merits of any accusation in this matter criminal law, and the merits of an accusation are based on conclusive, pertinent and useful evidence administered by means of evidence and evidence procedures provided by law.

Abstract Despite the ubiquitous coverage of the Libyan revolution throughout the last six months, very little has been said regarding the legal foundations for the rebels’ actions. Within the international legal framework, it must be asked whether the Libyan people even had a legal right in the first place to overthrow the Gaddafi regime. In fact, the existence of a right to rebel under international law is very much an unsettled matter. Among the sources of international law, a right to rebel is not enumerated in any of the principal international instruments. In truth, the only significant mention of the right is a passing but ambiguous reference in the preamble of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. A customary right of revolution is similarly absent, as many nations criminalize treason and other insurrectionary activities. Instead, if such a right exists in international law, it must derive from the well-enshrined right of self-determination. Th is right would thus constitute an additional exception to international law’s general prohibition on the use force, standing alongside self-defense and Security Council peace enforcement. Yet establishing a right of revolution would mark a significant departure from these other exemptions. In essence, the right of revolution represents an allowance for non-state actors to resort to force unilaterally for the protection of human rights. For this very reason, contemporary international law likely does not recognize a popular right to revolt. In light of international law’s fi rm restrictions on lawful uses of force, there is no evidence that the law currently acknowledges a novel exception for the individual enforcement of human rights. Th us, in the absence of a change in the law, the proper legal remedy for the Libyan people was not rebellion but rather an appeal to the international community.
