The Ideal Concept of Resolution of Domestic Violence Cases Based on the Values Of Justice

Dwi Handono, Arpangi Arpangi

Abstract


The resolution of domestic violence cases requires a justice-based mechanism that not only punishes the perpetrator but also restores the victim through an integrated protection approach, strengthened roles of law enforcement, and the highly selective use of penal mediation in certain cases while still ensuring the victim's safety and rights. The objective of this research is to analyze the current regulations governing domestic violence crimes and to examine the ideal concept for resolving domestic violence cases based on the value of justice. The methodological approach used in preparing this thesis is normative juridical research, with a descriptive-analytical specification. The results of this study show that the regulation of domestic violence crimes in Indonesia is fundamentally supported by a legal framework established under Law Number 23 of 2004 on the Elimination of Domestic Violence. This law not only regulates various forms of violence—physical, psychological, sexual, and domestic neglect—but also broadens the scope of household relations to include spouses, children, blood relatives living together, and domestic workers, while guaranteeing victims' rights to protection, healthcare services, legal and social assistance, and confidentiality. In terms of law enforcement, the PKDRT Law grants authority to the police, prosecutors, and courts to act swiftly through temporary protection mechanisms, court-issued protection orders, and eased evidentiary standards by recognizing the victim's testimony as a significant means of evidence. The ideal concept for resolving domestic violence cases based on the value of justice requires a legal mechanism that not only punishes perpetrators but also ensures full protection for victims. Case resolution must position victims as protected subjects. Law enforcement officials must thoroughly understand the substance of the PKDRT Law, eliminate patriarchal bias, and reject the practice of terminating legal processes solely due to the withdrawal of complaints in ordinary offenses. The ideal resolution model must strengthen victims' access to medical care, psychological and legal assistance, restitution, and effective protection orders, while also providing space for perpetrator rehabilitation.
