Abstract

Decision Number 14/Pid.Sus/2024/PN Jpa, Panel of Judges at the Jepara District Court is one of the cases of many environmental activists who were deprived of the right to voice their opinions to protect the environment. This article examines the state's responsibility in protecting environmental activists in Indonesia based on the applicable legal framework, including Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management, as well as supporting regulations such as Attorney General's Guidelines No. 8 of 2022 and PERMA no. 1 of 2023. The main focus of the article is to understand the extent to which these regulations provide effective protection to environmental activists from unfair legal claims (Anti-SLAPP) and ensure they can carry out their rights and obligations in defending the environment without fear of intimidation or legal persecution. This research also explores the implications of the application of laws and regulations on law enforcement practices, especially in the context of protecting environmental activists.
