The implementation of Islamic law in Aceh is based on the special autonomy and privileges of Aceh. The implementation of Islamic law brings the spirit of formalizing Islamic teachings through formal state regulations, namely the Aceh Qanun. Qanun Jinayat is a regulation that regulates disgraceful acts that should be punished in the teachings of Islamic law or can be referred to as a compilation of criminal law in Aceh. There are ten types of jarimah (criminal acts) regulated in the Qanun Jinayat, two of which are jarimah of sexual harassment and jarimah of rape. During the implementation of the Qanun Jinayat related to the law enforcement of the crime of sexual violence against children, both crimes of sexual harassment and rape have attracted a lot of criticism from the public, this crime is seen as no longer regulated in the Qanun Jinayat because it has been regulated previously and is more complete in the Child Protection Law. The ratio legis for regulating sexual violence against children in the Qanun Jinayat is because this act is seen as a continuation of the act of khalwat. This study shows an inaccuracy in the formulation of the type of jarimah in the Qanun Jinayat and the neglect of horizontal harmonization of national law.

Law enforcement in Indonesia still leaves various problems, especially regarding the sense of justice. Such as diffable cases dealing with the law, civil cases, especially in the land sector, which relies on property rights certificates, cases of domestic violence (nusyuz).In this case, this study discusses how law enforcement in Indonesia is, and how law enforcement is in the perspective of the transcendental justice paradigm. This research is a literary research using secondary data sources, namely primary and secondary legal materials. This study includes a normative study with a synthetic analytic approach.Based on the results of the analysis, law enforcement in Indonesia, both criminal and civil, is still fixated on legal certainty, thus ignoring substantive justice. This is where a shift is needed from the paradigm of law enforcement based on legal certainty to transcendent justice. This condition can be seen from several decisions that are very formalistic and based on laws, where legal certainty is the front line compared to substantive justice so that justice is not felt by the public. This condition is also strongly influenced by the legal paradigm adopted in Indonesia, namely positivist law or known as the systemic legal paradigm. Transcendental starts from irrational and metaphysical thinking such as emotions, feelings, instincts, moral spirituality and as part of building science. In this context, law enforcement. The perspective of the transcendental legal justice paradigm highlights how the purpose of Islamic law is useful for justice and human welfare. Where the law is based on ethics (morals) so that it can produce substantive justice, not mere formalistic justice, which summarizes the human attitude to be fair to God as the creator, fair to fellow humans and fair to the universe.

The existence of Law No. 23 of 2002 on Child Protection is part of the state's commitment to protect children. The Law has been amended for the second time through Perpu No. 1 of 2016. The emphasis in this second amendment is to aggravate the punishment of offender of sexual violence against children to provide a deterrent effect and prevent comprehensively the occurrence of sexual violence against children. This study used primary and secondary legal materials, with normative-juridical, policy, and philosophical approaches. This study concluded that punishment regulatin policy in Perpu No. 1 of 2016 reflects the purpose of punishment in the form of a combined theory that compromises between relative theory and retributive theory. While the policy of chemical chemistry regulation as a treatment reflects the purpose of punishment as rehabilitation.

Children are often considered to be weak, innocent, and easily deceived, when children are free from parental supervision, they are vulnerable to being victims of sexual violence by immoral people who want to satisfy their sexual desires without thinking about the suffering they have to go through. Various rules have been arranged to protect children, but in reality, sexual violence against children continues to occur, this has led to public unrest, especially parents. For this reason, this study was conducted to find out how much the child victims of sexual violence have the highest priority to get protection in law enforcement practices so far. Data analysis techniques used a normative juridical research approach, and the results of interviews with informants as well as an analysis of court decisions on cases of sexual violence against children, in DKI Jakarta and Bekasi. The research proves that protecting children as victims of sexual violence is not limited to applying criminal sanctions or fines on the perpetrators, but must be accompanied by other protections such as assistance, granting their rights to obtain compensation, restitution, and assistance as mandated by law. Ideally, protection for the victim is given at every examination process until the criminal conviction. This is done to realize fair and beneficial law enforcement for children. The protection of children as victims of sexual violence has not been in favor of the interests of victims, the rights of children as victims such as the provision of compensation, restitution, and assistance to victims have not been implemented properly. This is because there is still a lack of understanding of law enforcement officials and the public about the importance of protecting victims. Therefore, as a protection effort that can be done, it is necessary to build a criminal justice system that is more in favor of the interests of children as victims, as well as improvements to the rules so that it is more in the interests of the victims. As soon as possible the regulation of the law is issued as a guideline for executing sentences so as not to cause controversy in the community. Through the application of sanctions that are just and impartial to the interests of the perpetrators, then justice for the victims will be realized.

Sexual crime (rape) is one of the crimes that are very disturbing to the community, and its development is increasingly diverse either in the motives, nature, the form, the intensity and the modus operandi. The concerning situation is that a castration or castration law is expected to encouraging perpetrators of child sexual violence to lose their desire to repeat their crime. This research will explain how the implementation of chemical castration against sexual offenders on children (paedophilia) and how the application of castration penalties after the purpose of Indonesian crimes. The implementation of the imposition of the chemical castration sentence seems to be considered as an answer to the high public demand for severe punishment for the perpetrators.

Aceh is a special province in Indonesia and different from other Indonesian provinces especially in the context of Shari'ah related laws. Aceh was granted special autonomy and legal right by the Indonesian central government in 2001 to fully apply Islamic law in the province. Generally, Islamic law which is applicable to Muslims in Indonesia is limited to personal laws just as in Malaysia. However, with the passage of time, Islamic law has expanded to include Islamic banking and finance. Besides that, Islamic law in Aceh is also extended to govern criminal matters which are in line with the motto of Aceh Islamic government to apply Islamic law in total or kaffah. Since 1999, the legal administration of Aceh has begun to gradually put in place the institutional framework to ensure that Islamic law is properly administered and implemented. Equally important, such framework is also aimed to ensure that punishments are fairly executed. This paper attempts to analyse the extent of the applicability of Islamic criminal law in Aceh. It is divided into three major parts. The first part discusses the phases in making Aceh an Islamic province and the roles played by Dinas Syariat Islam Aceh as the policy maker in implementing Islamic law as well as educating and training the public about the religion of Islam. The second part gives an overview on the Islamic criminal law and punishment provided in Qanun Aceh No.6/2014 on Hukum Jinayat (hereinafter Qanun Hukum Jinayat or “QHJ”) as well as the criminal procedural law concerning the methods of proof codified in Qanun Aceh No.7/2013 on Hukum Acara Jinayat (hereinafter “QAJ”). The third part of this paper highlights the challenges in the application and implementation of Islamic criminal law in Aceh, and accordingly provides recommendations for the improvement of the provisions in the QHJ and QAJ. Inputs from the interviews with the drafters of QHJ, namely Prof. Dr. Hamid Sarong and Prof. Dr Al Yasa are utilized in preparing this paper. In addition, inputs gathered from nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), namely Indonesian Syarie Lawyers Association (APSI) and Jaringan Masyarakat Sipil Peduli Syariah (JMSPS) are employed. The findings of this research are important in providing an in-depth understanding on the framework of Islamic criminal law in Aceh as well as in recognizing the flaws in its application or practical aspects of the law in Aceh. Keywords: Islamic law, Aceh, Administration, Punishment.

When the hashtag #metoo began to circulate in digital and social media, it challenged a familiar interpretation of those who are raped or sexually harassed as victims, positioning women as embodied agents. Yet, almost exactly a year after the #metoo movement shot to visible prominence, a different, though eerily similar, story began to circulate on the same multi-media platforms as #metoo: a story about white male victimhood. Powerful men in positions of privilege (almost always white) began to take up the mantle of victimhood as their own, often claiming to be victims of false accusations of sexual harassment and assault by women. Through the analysis of five public statements by highly visible, powerful men who have been accused of sexual violence, I argue that the discourse of victimhood is appropriated not by those who have historically suffered but by those in positions of patriarchal power. Almost all of the statements contain some sentiment about how the accusation (occasionally acknowledging the actual violence) ‘ruined their life’, and all of the statements analyzed here center the author, the accused white man, as the key subject in peril and the authors position themselves as truth-tellers about the incidents. These statements underscore certain shifts in the public perception of sexual violence; the very success of the #metoo movement in shifting the narrative has meant that men have had to defend themselves more explicitly in public. In order to wrestle back a hegemonic gender stability, these men take on the mantle of victimhood themselves.
