Restorative justice in the investigation is carried out by using the penal mediation method which provides an opportunity for the Victim and the Perpetrator in a participatory way to formulate a peace agreement facilitated by the Investigator. Penal mediation comes from civil mediation with problems in the process of drafting an agreement which must be ensured that it comes purely from the Parties. This research is a socio legal research conducted at the Directorate of General Criminal Investigation of the Regional Police of Central Java and the Indonesian Advocates Association of the Semarang Branch of the Leadership Council with the methods of interviewing, observing, and reviewing case files. This research examines two problems: how the process of preparing a penal mediation agreement fits into the application of restorative justice at the investigation stage, and how to supervise the implementation of a penal mediation agreement at the investigation stage. The results of the study show that the penal mediation agreement was prepared by the Parties themselves, facilitated by the Investigator, but did not involve the community so that the orientation of returning to social harmonization was not felt.

<p>Keberadaan pidana mati dalam suatu sistem hukum pidana suatu negara seringkali diperdebatkan secara global tidak hanya tentang pembenaran keberadaan pidana tersebut tetapi juga terkait bagaimana pidana tersebut dijalankan. Terdapat berbagai permasalahan dalam pelaksanaan pidana mati saat ini seperti fenomena deret tunggu eksekusi pidana mati hingga implikasinya terhadap kondisi terpidana. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis proyeksi ke depan pelaksanaan pidana mati di Indonesia dalam RKUHP. Adanya pembaruan hukum pidana di Indonesia melalui Rancangan Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (RKUHP) diharapkan menjadi solusi akan pandangan pro-kontra atas keberadaan sanksi pidana mati itu sendiri dan formulasinya dapat memberikan keadilan dan kepastian hukum dalam pelaksanaannya. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode penelitian kualitatif, dengan pendekatan <em>social legal research. </em>Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa jika RKUHP disahkan maka kedepannya keberadaan pidana mati tetap dipertahankan namun tidak lagi menjadi jenis pidana pokok. Adapun hal yang patut diperhatikan bahwa terdapat kelemahan dalam formulasinya, sehingga ke depannya masih belum menjamin kepastian hukum dalam pelaksanaan pidana mati.</p><p><strong>Kata kunci:</strong> Pelaksanaan Pidana Mati; Proyeksi; RKUHP</p><p> </p><p align="center"> </p><p>The existence of the death penalty in the criminal law system is often debated globally, not only the justification for the existence of the crime but also how the crime is carried out. There are various problems in the implementation of the death penalty, such as the death phenomenon which has an impact on psychologically attacking the convict. Draft Criminal Code (RKUHP) in Indonesia is expected to be a solution to the pros and cons of the existence of the death penalty itself and its formulation can provide justice and legal certainty in its implementation. Therefore, this study aims to analyze future projections of the implementation of the death penalty in Indonesia in the RKUHP. The research was conducted using qualitative research methods, with a social legal research approach. The results show that if the RKUHP is ratified, in the future the existence of the death penalty will be maintained but will no longer be the main criminal sanction. As for things that should be noted that there are weaknesses in the formulation, so that in the future it still does not guarantee legal certainty in the implementation of the death penalty.</p>

The stages of determining election results have important characteristics; because it determines the party who wins the election and, at the same time, proves the legality and legitimacy of holding the election. Nevertheless, there are various problems regarding the formulation of policies in criminal acts related to the determination of election results. This research on the formulation of criminal acts associated with election results is normative research with a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, and a comparative approach. This legal research aims to discuss the formulation of the crime of 'late setting election results' and 'not determining election results; while at the same time reviewing future projections by formulating an ideal formulation regarding the formulation of the criminal act of determining election results. The results of the study state that the formulation of criminalization policies in illegal acts related to the determination of election results is regulated to meet various legal problems, including the dimensions of action, the dimensions of criminal responsibility, and the dimensions of criminal sanctions. Then, by taking references from Canada and Kenya, the projections of the formulation are prepared by specifying two objects of action, namely the act of not determining the election results and the act of being late in determining the election results as a crime. Completing the formulation was followed by a complete determination of the subject of a criminal offense accompanied by intentional errors and the formulation of flexibility-based sanctions oriented to avoiding sentencing disparities.

Restorative Justice has experienced a new phase in Indonesia since 2020. Since that year, the Police and the Prosecutor’s Office have been competing to formulate internal regulations as a form of deadlock in revising the Indonesian Criminal Code Procedure (KUHAP), one of the new substances of which is the idea of Restorative Justice. Restorative Justice allows a case to not proceed to the court based on a peace agreement between the victim and the offender to create the restoration for the victims and social harmonization. Recently, there have been cases in Indonesia regarding the use of Restorative Justice in immoral cases, such as rape, that is then reconciled by marrying the victim and the offender. Such marriage in no way will bring happiness or restore the victim’s condition but adds to the suffering of the victim and further destroys social harmony. This phenomenon is analysed with a normative approach which shows that the factors for the emergence of daunting peace under the pretext of Restorative Justice arise from the regulations dissimilarity between the Police and the Prosecutor’s Office; only in the Prosecutor’s Office regulation, immoral cases are cases that are excluded as objects of cases in Restorative Justice. Police regulations improvement must be carried out immediately so that the practice of marrying the victims with their offenders in immoral cases can be completely terminated from the start. Even a peace process proposal for immoral crime cases should not need to be facilitated because of the heavy impact felt by the victim or their family.
