Billy Calvindo Pinem, Andri Winjaya Laksana

Abstract


The increasing involvement of children in drug abuse is a worrying issue in Indonesia's child protection system. Children who become involved in drugs are not essentially perpetrators of crimes, but rather victims in need of recovery and support. This study was conducted to examine how rehabilitation punishment is applied to children addicted to drugs and the extent to which this mechanism reflects the principles of child protection as mandated by law. The main objective of this study is to understand the effectiveness of rehabilitation punishment in restoring children's condition, protecting their future, and realizing humane justice through a study of Decision No. 60/Pid.Sus-Anak/2022/PN Btm. This research employs a normative legal research method with a case study approach. The analysis examines relevant legal regulations, legal doctrine, and the judge's reasoning in the relevant decision. This approach is combined with an examination of child protection principles and the concept of restorative justice, which serve as the primary basis for handling children in conflict with the law (the best interest of the child). Therefore, this research relies not only on written norms but also on humanitarian values and the social purpose of criminal punishment. The research findings indicate that rehabilitation-based punishment is fundamentally aligned with the principle of the best interests of the child and the restorative justice paradigm. Rehabilitation is considered more capable of meeting children's physical, mental, and social recovery needs than repressive punishment. However, its effectiveness still faces various challenges, such as limited rehabilitation facilities, weak inter-agency coordination, and suboptimal post-rehabilitation support and supervision. Therefore, the success of rehabilitation depends heavily on the quality of implementation, policy support, and the system's commitment to truly positioning children as subjects who must be protected.
