Legal Analysis of Criminal Responsibility for Corruption for Abuse of Authority by Employees of The BKK Kendal Bank Office (Case Study of Criminal Decision No. 32/Pidsus-tpk/2022/ Pn Smg)

Abstract

Abstract. Corruption has been a hot topic of discussion in recent years throughout the international community, particularly in Indonesia, through both the mass media and print media. Corruption occurs systematically and extensively, harming not only the state's finances and economy but also violating the social and economic rights of the wider community. Therefore, it is classified as an extraordinary crime, requiring extraordinary measures to eradicate it. The development of criminal acts of corruption was first reported by the United Nations (UN) Congress on the Prevention of Crime and the Treatment of Offenders. UN members recognized that corruption transcended the territorial boundaries of individual countries. However, the pace of economic and trade development actually contributed to the growth of criminal acts of corruption. Corruption is a highly complex crime. From a political perspective, corruption is a disruptive factor and undermines the government's credibility. Efforts to combat corruption are a high priority because corruption is seen as disrupting and hindering national development, preventing national goals from being achieved, and threatening efforts to achieve social justice. As a study material in the research, one decision will be submitted, namely the Decision of the Corruption Crime Court at the Semarang District Court Number 32 / Pid.Sus-Tpk / 2022 / PN Smg as a research study material. As in the case experienced by the Defendant Muldiman Bin Supono as the head of the Sub-district Credit Agency Rural Bank hereinafter referred to as PT BPR BKK Kendal City Weleri Branch, Kendal Regency Number 581/19 / SK.DIR / VII / 2012 concerning Adjustment of Rank and Class for PD Employees.
