The ideal figure of an Indonesian pu blic

always a ct by virt ue of th e law an d withdue observa nce of th e n orm s of religion,

good ma nn ers a nd morality, and sha ll also

be obligated to delve int o the living values

of hu ma nity, law a nd justice in t he society.

Moreover, public prosecutors sh all institut e

p r o f e s s i o n a l e t h i c s o f I n d o n e s i a n

Prosecutors can be found in Code of Civil

Servan t Et hics and several acts concerning

th e dut y, aut hority an d function of public

prosecutors in the Indones ian jus t i ce

system.

III. INVESTIGATION

A. In v e s t ig a tiv e Au th o ri ty a n d

Methodology

Arcitle 6, para gra ph (1) of Act N o. 8/1981

on Cr iminal Pr ocedur e (KUHAP) stat estha t an investigator shall be:

(1) an official of th e st a te p olice of th e

Republic of Indonesia ; and

(2) a cer ta in official of th e civil ser vice

who is gra nt ed special aut hority by

law.

Refering to this statement, in practice,

the police official is an investigator for

general crimes such as m ur der, theft a nd

robbery.The pu blic prosecut or is also aut horized

to be the investigator for special crimes

such as the corruption cases (Act No. 3/ 

1 9 7 1 o n E r a d i c a t i o n o f C o r r u p t i o n

Offences). It is sa nctioned by Art icle 284,

p a r a g r a p h ( 2) of Ac t on C r i m i n a l

Pr ocedur e, which st at es:

. . . al l cases shal l be subject to the

provision of this Act, with tem porar y

except ion for special pr ovisions on

crimina l procedur e as refered to incerta in acts, un til th ey ar e amended

an d or ar e declared to no longer be in

effect.

Another regulat ion which sanctions t ha t

s t a t e m e n t a b o v e , i s Ar t i cl e 1 7 o f  

Government Regula t ion No. 27 /1983 ,

which m ent ions t ha t pu blic prosecut ors

and certain off ic ials have authori ty as

investigat ors of special crimes . It mea ns

there are several special invest igators

b e s i d e s p u b l i c p r o s e c u t o r s i n t h e

Indonesian investigation system, inter alia,

na val officers for Fish ery a nd Exclusive

Economic Zone offences; and civil serva nt s

of Customs and Excise , Tax Divis ion,

Forestry Officer, etc.

An investigator as regulated in Article

7, paragr aph (1) of Act No. 8/1981 sha ll be

competent, int er alia, to car ry out ar rest,

deten tion, sear ch and seizure of docum ent s;

t o s u m m o n a p e r s o n t o b e h e a r d o r

examined as a suspect or a witness; to take

oth er r esponsible acts in a ccorda nce with

law. In th is regar d, th e investigat or sha ll

prepa re m inut es of the execut ion of actsan d th en sh all deliver t he dossier of case

to the pu blic pr osecut or. The delivery of 

th e dossier sha ll be accomplished as follows

[Article 8, paragra ph (3) of Act N o. 8/1981]:

(1) At t he first sta ge, th e invest igat or

sha ll deliver only th e dossier of case.

(2) Where th e investigation is deemed to

ha ve been completed, th e investigator

sha l l cede respons ib i l i t y for the

suspect an d th e physical evidence to

th e public prosecut or.

However, ther e is not a str ict s an ction

against the investigator who delivers t he

dossier of a case la te a nd never completes

th e ret ur ned case. In pra ct ice, a public

p r o s e c u t o r i n c h a r g e w i l l a s k t h a t

i n v e s t i g a t o r ’s s u p e r i o r t o or d e r t h e

completion of the case as soon as possible.

B . In s tru c t io n a n d Su p e rv i s io n o f  

the P olice , and the Cooperationbetween the Publ ic Prosecutor

and the Police

As we know, the ro le o f the publ i c

prosecut or can be seen clear ly from th e

accepta nce of the case dossier from t he

police officer. Then , th e public pr osecutor

will compose the results of the criminal

investigat ion t o be the criminal prosecut ion

against the defendant . In the Indonesian

crimina l jus tice system , a public prosecutor

within seven days shal l be obligated to

inform th e investigat or in cha rge wheth er

the resul ts are complete or incomplete.

Where t he r esults a re evidently incomplete,

th e public prosecut or sha ll send th e dossier

back to th e investigat or accompa nied by an

instr uction on what must be done to make

it complet e. Then , within 14 days after

receiving t he dossier, the investigator sha ll

be obligated to retu rn th e dossier to the

public pr osecutor.

As ment ioned before, ther e is no a st rict

sanct ion against the invest igators who

neglect th eir obligation to complete th e case

with in the mentioned period. In th at case,

a good inform al or per sonal r elationshipbetween the publ ic prosecutor and the

invest igat or (the St at e Police Officer) can

be seen on the resul ts of invest igat ion.

Conver sely, the public prosecut or in char ge

will ask his/her su perior or t he head of th e

Distr ict Pr osecution Office to cont act t he

i nves t i ga t o r ’s su pe r i or t o fu l fi l l h i s

obligation soon. Alter na tely, th e pu blic

pr osecutor will never give or a ppr ove th e

ex t ens i on o f fu r t he r de t en t i on i n t he

investigat ion period. It can be deemed asan effective wa y for public prosecut ors to

supervise what t he investigat ors h ave done

till the end of the deten tion p eriod.

Although the public prosecutor is able

to retur n t he incomplete dossier to the

i n v e s t i g a t o r a c com p a n i e d b y t h e

instr uction, however, it can not be sa id tha t

th e public prosecut or h as su pervised the

s t a t e po l i ce of f i cer in conduct ing the

inves tiga tion ver tically. Accordingly, both

th e public prosecut or an d the police officert o g e t h e r h a v e p r e p a r e d a s u c c e s s f u l

investigat ion. It must be noted a successful

invest igat ion shal l determine the next

sta ge of law en forcement resu lts.

C. Ro le o f P u bl ic P r o se c u to rs in

Arrest ing and De taining the

Suspect

Pu rsu an t t o Art icle 109, par agra ph (1)

of the Act on Crimina l Pr ocedur e, where

an investigator ha s begun th e investigation

of an event, which const itut es a n offence,

th e invest igat or sh al l inform th e public

pr osecutor of th is fact. Tha t inform at ion

includes the ar rest a nd detent ion of th e

suspect, which h ave been condu cted by th e

investigator.

The invest igator on a person who is

str ongly presumed t o have committ ed an

offense based on sufficient pr el imina ry

evidence shal l i ssue an ar rest war ra nt .

That ar rest can be made for a t most one

day, and a person suspected of having

commit t ed a m isdemeanor sha l l not be

ar rested except when without valid r easons

he h as fai led two consecut ive t imes t ocomply with va lid summons (Art icles 17 to

19 of Act No. 8/1981).

F u r t h e r m o r e , f o r t h e p u r p o s e s o f  

investigation as well as pr osecut ion a nd

tr ial proceedings, th e investigat or instead

of the pu blic prosecut or an d th e judge at

a re c i r cum s t ances w h i ch g i ve r i s e t oconcern tha t t he suspec t wi l l escape ,

dam age or destr oy physical evidence an d/ 

or repea t the offence. According to Art icle

24, para grap h (1) of the Act on Cr iminal

by an investiga tor sh all only be valid for

at m ost 20 days. It ma y be extended by a

The r ole of th e pu bl ic pr osecutor in

In Indonesian criminal procedure, th ere

of tr a ffic violat ion cases .

Ordinary procedure is the main legal

procedure that is implemented in every

mentioned above, including lapse of time,

double jeopar dy or n ebis in idem, a nd t he

deat h of th e accus ed, sha ll be considered

w h e n d e t e r m i n i n g w h e t h e r o r n o t t o

prosecut e th e accused.

Pr ior t o 1961, every public prosecut or in

Ind onesia was a llowed by th e law to drop

th e case even th ough t her e was sufficient

evidence to war ra nt a conviction. Then,

t h i s p o w e r w a s a b o l i s h e d i n 1 9 6 1 .

However, since tha t time only the Att orn ey

Genera l has been allowed to drop a case

for political r eas ons or for t he int eres t of 

law. Hence, a public prosecut or wh o wishes

to ut i l ize this power ha s to request t heAtt orn ey General t o determine it, which is,

unfortunately, rarely exercised.

Although th e au th ority to exercise th e

d i scre t ionary power i s no t s t ipu la t ed

explicitly in a rt icles of the Act Nu mber 8/ 

1981 (KUHAP), th e elucida tion of Ar ticle

77 KUHAP infers t his power which is called

th e opport un ity principle. Fortuna tely, th is

pr inciple ha s been endorsed by Art icle 32,

pa rag raph (4 ) o f A c t N o . 5 / 1991 on

Prosecution Service of the Republic of Indonesia.

D . P l e a B a rg a in i n g

In t he Indones i an c r i m i na l j u s t i ce

system, plea bar gaining has n ever been

kn own clear ly. To decide whet her a n

accused is guilty or n ot, is the au th orit y of 

th e judges at tr ial. However th e judges at

t r ia l shal l impose a proper pu nishment

based on sufficient legal means of proof,

na mely at lea st t wo legal mea ns of proof,which convinc ing ly es t ab l i sh th a t t h e

accused ha s t ru ly committ ed an offence.

A public prosecutor in instituting the

p rosecu t i on , o f cou r se , w i l l f i r s t be

concern ed a bout th e su fficiency of th e

evidence to esta blish a pr ima facie case or

t ha t t he ev idence t ha t w ou l d w ar ra n t

convict ion. Ther e are severa ls factors

usu ally taken into considera t ion before

deciding to prosecute such as the gravity

an d circums ta nces of the offence, an d th e

personal factors re lated to the al leged

offender, inter alia , the char acter, th e age,

an y menta l il lness or str ess affecting th e

offender a nd t he r elationship of th e victim

to the offender. After a p ublic pr osecut or

ha s gath ered th e prima facie evidence, he

decides wheth er t o prosecut e or n ot.

V. TRIAL P ROCE ED INGS

A. P r o of o f Cr imin a l Fa c ts

As st at ed pr eviously, th ere a re five legal

means of proof in Indonesian cr iminal

procedur e, i.e., the t estimony of witnesses,

the t es t imony of exper t s , document s ,

i nd i ca t i on , and t he t e s t i m ony o f t heaccused [Art icle 184, pa ra gra ph (1) of Act

No. 8/1981]. The t est imony of a witn ess is

what the witness has st ated a t tr ial, which

is similar t o the test imony of the expert and

th e accused, i.e., what the expert a nd t he

accused ha ve sta ted at tr ial. A docum ent

as a legal mea ns of pr oof sh ould be ma de

un der a n oath of office or str engthen ed by

an oat h. An indicat ion is an a ct, event or

c i r c u m s t a n c e w h i c h b e c a u s e o f i t s

consisten cy whet her bet ween one an d th e

other or with the offence itself, signifies

th at th e offence has occur red a nd who the

per pet ua tor is (see Art icles 184 to 189 of 

Act No. 8/1981).

In addi t ion, th e indicat ion as a legal

mea ns of proof sha ll only be obta ined from

t h e t e s t i m o n y o f t h e w i t n e s s e s , t h e

documen t and t he t estimony of the accused.

The evident iary st ren gth of the indicat ion

is evalua ted by th e judges at tr ial wiselyan d pru dent ly a ft e r those judges have

accurately and careful ly conducted an

e x a m i n a t i o n o n t h e b a s i s o f t h e i r

cons cien ce. In pra ct ice , every pu bl ic

p r o s ecu t o r a l wa y s t r i e s t o h a v e t h e

indication in proving th e accused guilty. In

o ther words , every publ i c p rosecutor

always tr ies to obta in th ree or more legal

mea ns of proof in p roving t he gu ilt of the

accused.

However, if th e cour t is of th e opinion

tha t f rom t he r esul t s of examinat ion a t

accused sha l l be dec l a red acqu i t t ed .

Moreover, if the cour t is of th e opinion tha t

th e act of the accused h as been pr oven but

such a ct does not cons titu te a n offence, all

cha rges aga i n s t t he accused sha l l be

dismissed. In th ese cases, i f th e public

prosecut or is not sa tisfied with th e opinion

of th e court (i.e., dismissal or acquit ta l), he

affirming the District Court decision.

According the explanation above, the

competent Distr ict Cour t ma y make th ree

kinds of decision upon th e a ccused, i.e.:

(1)Punishment;

(2) Acquitta l;

(3) Dismissal of all cha rges aga inst t he

accused.

B. Cooperat ion for Speedy Tr ia lIn pur suit of Art icle 4, para graph (2) of 

th e Act on th e Basic of Judicial P ower, the

 judicial adm inistr at ion sh all be condu cted

simp ly, speedily an d economically. Thes e

pr inciples mu st fulfill the expecta tion of all

seeker s of just ice. As we rea lized, they do

no t need a com pl i ca t ed exam i na t i on

procedure th at may ta ke a long time and,

sometimes, it should be cont inued by a n

heir.

Cooperat ion among the invest igator,public prosecutor and the judges at trial

an d also each superior, in pr actice, has sped

up t he examina tion pr ocess. Moreover, the

role of the a ccused in sh owing the requ ired

evidence to the competent official of th e law

enforcement agenc ies , i s a l so deemed

an oth er way for a speedy trial.

C. S e c u rin g Ap p ro p ria te S e n te n c e

I n p r a c t i c e , t h e r e a r e q u i t e m a n y

sentences passed by judges which have

been considered n ot in accorda nce with th e

sen se of just ice in Indonesia n society. The

ordina ry people consider th ose sent ences

so l en i en t t ha t t hey m i gh t l ead t o an

ar gument h as not been proven. Moreover,

people do not wan t t o un derst an d why it

h a s o c c u r r e d i n t h e I n d o n e s i a n l a w

enforcement system.

Secur ing an a ppropriate senten ce is not

only condu cted by th e judges at tr ial but

also by the public prosecut or, invest igatoran d other officials of crimina l agencies. An

appropriate sentence should be made on

an a ppropriat e request of cha rges against

th e defenda nt , and it is based on effective

investigationa ry results. In other words,

an inappr opriat e sentence is merely caused

by hu ma n err ors which ar e made by th ose

law enforcement officials . Ther efore,

providing t he pr oper t ra ining for th ose

officials i s necessar y to redu ce h um an

Soerjono (see paper in In donesia-J apa n

J oint Seminar , Ja kar ta , J anu ary 20-24,

of ha ving comm itted a crime. If in fact the

accused or th e wi tnesses wer e l ega l ly

summ oned but failed to be present at trial,

th e examinat ion of the case can not be

cont inued an d th e head judge sha ll order

said per son to be sum moned once aga in for

th e next tr ial session. Usua lly, delay in the

tr ial proceedings may be cau sed by:

(1) The required witnesses not ha vingreceived the su mm ons.

(2) A witness’ inten t to arr ive at t he tr ial

on th e second sum mons . Usu ally, it

is car ried out if th e defenda nt is still

in the detent ion a nd t he witness is

th e victim of the defenda nt .

VI. EXECUTION OF PU NISHMENT

Pu rsu an t to Art icle 270 of the Act on

Crimina l Procedure, which is a lso signifiedby Act No. 5/1991 on P rosecu tion Service

of th e Republic of Indonesia , the execut ion

of pun ishmen t which ha s become fina l and

binding sha ll be car ried out by th e public

prosecutor. For th is purpose, a copy of th e

execut ion of pun ishmen t sh all be sent to

th e public prosecut or by th e clerk. Then ,

th e public pr osecutor sh all send , a copy of 

t h e m i n u t e s o n t h e e x e c u t i o n o f t h e

pun ishment signed by himself, by th e head

o f t h e c o r r e c t i o n a g e n c y a n d b y t h econvic t ed person , to the cour t which

decided th e case in t he first instan ce an d

th e clerk sha ll record it in th e register of 

super vision an d observation.

For the purpose of superv i s ion and

observation, in every court there must be

a judge who is given the special duty of 

ass i s t ing the head in car ry ing ou t the

super vision and observat ion with regar d to

t he pun i shm en t o f dep r i v i ng l i be r t y .

Therefore, i t is clear th at th e execut or of 

pun ishmen t is th e public prosecut or wh ich

is different in civil law enforcemen t. The

executor of civil law is the clerk of th e cour t.

VII. PU BLIC P ROSECUTORS’

INVOLVEMENT IN NATIONAL

CRIMINAL JUSTICE POLICY

Pu blic prosecut ors ar e a lso involved in

th e a ctivities of, inter alia, in t he pr omotion

Additionally, public prosecut ors r epresent
