Abstract
Criminal acts, such as corruption, are illegal actions committed by individuals that harm the state for personal or others' benefits. Corruption is considered an exceptional crime, making investigations challenging due to the intricate methods employed by the perpetrators. This difficulty led to the introduction of the term "perpetrator witness" or "justice collaborator," referring to a witness who cooperates with law enforcement authorities to investigate the same crime. The objective of this study is to examine the legal arrangements and protection measures afforded to justice collaborators in sharing information. The research employed a normative legal research method, utilizing library research and primary, secondary, and tertiary data sources. The findings reveal several legal provisions, including Law No. 31 of 2014 and SEMA No. 4 of 2011, as well as forms of protection provided by law enforcement agencies, encompassing physical and psychological safeguards. However, it can be inferred from the study that the legal foundation for justice collaborators lacks clarity, as it holds the potential for multiple interpretations in practical implementation. Additionally, the level of protection provided and the fulfillment of promises by law enforcers have not been fully optimized.
