Abstract

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bentuk perlindungan hukum terhadap anak yang melakukan tindak pidana pembunuhan dan peran penegak hukum dalam memenuhi perlindungan hukum terhadap anak yang melakukan pembunuhan dalam putusan nomor 4/Pid.Sus-Anak/2021/PN Pya. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian hukum empiris dengan menggunakan pendekatan konseptual (Conceptual Approach), pendekatan perundang-undangan (Statue Approach), pendekatan sosiologis (Sociological Approch), dan pendekatan kasus (Case Approach). Bentuk perlindungan hukum terhadap anak yang melakukan pembunuhan terdiri dari perlindungan pada tahap pra-ajudikasi, ajudikasi dan pasca ajudikasi. Peran penegak hukum dalam memenuhi perlindungan hukum terhadap anak yang melakukan pembunuhan pada putusan Nomor 4/Pid.Sus-Anak/2021/PN Pya masih belum dilakukan secara optimal dan tidak sesuai dengan ketentuan perlindungan anak.

Review

This paper addresses the highly pertinent and sensitive issue of legal protection afforded to children who commit murder, a topic of significant concern within juvenile justice systems globally. The authors clearly outline their dual objectives: first, to delineate the forms of legal protection available to such children, and second, to critically assess the role of law enforcement in providing this protection within a specific case (Decision No. 4/Pid.Sus-Anak/2021/PN Pya). This focused approach, combining a general inquiry into protective measures with a detailed case study, promises valuable insights into the practical application of child protection laws in severe criminal contexts. The research employs an empirical legal methodology, drawing on a comprehensive array of approaches including conceptual, statutory, sociological, and case-based analyses. This multi-faceted methodology is well-suited to exploring both the theoretical framework and the practical realities of legal protection. The abstract effectively summarizes the key findings: legal protection for children involved in murder cases is structured across pre-adjudication, adjudication, and post-adjudication stages. Crucially, the study concludes that the role of law enforcement in the examined case was "not optimal" and did not align with established child protection provisions, suggesting a gap between legal ideals and practical implementation. The finding regarding the suboptimal performance of law enforcement in the specified case is particularly impactful and merits further exploration. This highlights a critical area where legal frameworks may exist but their execution falters, potentially compromising the rights and welfare of child offenders. Such a conclusion suggests the need for systemic reviews, enhanced training for law enforcement officials, and clearer guidelines to ensure compliance with child protection principles, even in the most challenging scenarios. This paper, therefore, offers a significant contribution by pinpointing a specific instance where the protective mechanisms for children within the justice system require urgent attention and improvement.
