Abstract
In expanding its purpose, a convict must also pay attention to justice for the victim. The principle of equality before the law must be applied as equal justice for the perpetrator and for the victim. If the state takes over the enforcement of criminal law because of the victim's mandate as a citizen, then the state is responsible to the victim. This article will discuss the philosophical basis of the state's responsibility towards victims of criminal acts, the principle of justice in the form of the state's responsibility towards the victim as a result of the failure of the perpetrator's responsibility in carrying out his sentence. Because legal science has prescriptive characteristics, this study uses normative (doctrinal) legal research, namely research to produce new arguments, theories or concepts as prescriptions in solving the problems faced.
