The Politics Of Narcotics Law In The Reconstruction Of The Authority Of Institutions Providing Rehabilitation For Narcotics Addicts

Background: Since the introduction of criminal policy on victims of drug abuse in Indonesia in Law No. 35 of 2009 on Narcotic Drugs, the current legislation does not give room to the use of criminal means (tax and action), which extends both its content and benefits as contained in Article 127 paragraphs (1), (2), and (3), Jo. Article 103 Jo. Art. 54 is the punishment of criminal imprisonment, and the sentence of medical rehabilitation or social rehabilitation only tends to be rigid, So in legal practice, it still tends to position victims of drug abuse as being treated equally as perpetrators of drug offenses in general, without regard to justice for the protection of the victim of narcotics abuse itself. Adopting good concepts for the formulation of the Narcotics Act in the future is necessary as a reflection of the values of justice for the victims of drug abuse who are distributed to Indonesians based on Pancasila with a more flexible system of punishment. (flexible on sentencing). Objective: Analyzing to a great extent the innovative ideas of re-formulating criminal drug policy in Indonesia with a comparative study of criminal policy on victims of drug abuse in other countries. By using the method of doctrinal approach that analyzes the law as it is written in the books or the law as it is decided by the judge through the judicial process.

Narcotics addicts and victims of drug abuse must undergo medical and social rehabilitation. Van Boven, a United Nations special rapporteur, puts the rights of victims of human rights violations in a comprehensive way that is not only limited to the right to know and to continued justice but also the right to reparation (Theo Van Boven, 2002). Method: This study uses the method of normative jurisprudence, or doctrinal law research, that analyzes both laws as they are written in the books and laws as they are decided by the judge through the judicial process. The use of skunder data as a source or material of information can be primary legal material, skunder legal material, or third-tier legal material. Results: The results of the study suggest that there is a need to re-formulate the criminal policy of legal protection of victims as perpetrators of crimes in the future drug law enforcement system, including articles on the use of non-criminal means in drug law in the future as a measure of prevention of the adverse influence of the black traffic of narcotics in Indonesia. To this end, it is necessary to encourage the support of the government by using all its powers to provide the budget, resources, and human resources for both the security and defense of the country, such as the Indonesian National Army/Police of the Republic of Indonesia/National Narcotics Agency, other law enforcement agencies, and the apparatus of government within the scope of the state administration, so that the presence and existence of a state in protecting citizens in a safe, comfortable, and realization of a divine, just, and civilized society with a sense of unity, settlement with mutiny, and justice in society will be felt.

Abuse of narcotics and illegal drugs among today's young generation is increasing. The rise in deviant behavior in the younger generation could endanger the survival of this nation in the future. The type of research is normative legal research with a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The types of legal materials used are primary and secondary legal materials. The research results show that prevention through non-penal channels focuses more on preventive properties before a crime occurs. Efforts to combat crime through non-penal channels are more of a preventive measure against crime, so the main target is to address the factors conducive to crime. In efforts to prevent narcotics crimes, it is necessary to intensify education about the dangers of narcotics through mass media such as newspapers, magazines, the internet, social networks (Facebook, Twitter) and others so that community members are aware of the great dangers of narcotics, so that every family can make prevention efforts within the family. In this case, in the last few years, Indonesia has taken steps towards both penal and non-penal approaches in dealing with narcotics problems. However, the implementation and effectiveness of this policy still require further evaluation to ensure that it is successful in the long term.
