Abstract

A method of limiting government intervention in crime. The social control of crime model is implemented through the deinstitutionalization of minor crimes, the transition of the formal justice procedure to informal guidance, and the decriminalisation of minor offences. The criminal justice system is separated from the perpetrator. To minimise stigma or being labelled as a criminal, law enforcement officers' roles are minimised as much as possible. Mediation, distraction, and social punishments are among the programmes being tested. Instead of enduring a formal court process, this model is thought only to increase the elasticity of coaching towards perpetrators (widening the net) (Siegel, 2011: 407). Children cannot be sentenced to death or life imprisonment under Indonesian law, which is unequivocally stated. In total, the prohibition on imposing death and life sentences on children is written in three statutory regulations: Article 66 paragraph (2) of Law Number 39 of 1999 concerning Human Rights, Article 3 letter (f) of Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning Systems Juvenile Criminal Justice (UU SPPA), and Article 64 letter (f) of Law 35 of 2014 concerning Amendments to Law Number 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection. There is no maximum age limit in Indonesian legislation for those facing the death penalty; Indonesia solely governs the minimum age for imposing the death penalty, which is 18 years of age for children.
