Law

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Law No. 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Justice System and to find out what factors influence and hinder the role of the Police in implementing Law No. 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Justice System. This study uses a combination of methods between the "legal research" normative approach and the "Juridical sociologies" empirical approach. The normative approach (legal research) is legal research regarding the enforcement or implementation of normative legal provisions (codification, laws or contracts) in action on certain legal events that occur in society and in order to obtain primary data through field research (research). Based on the results of the study, it was found that the handling of child cases in Indonesia is based on Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System (hereinafter referred to as the SPPA Law). In Article 5 (1) of the SPPA Law, it is emphasized that the juvenile criminal justice system must prioritize a restorative justice approach. Second, the obstacles experienced by the Bintan Resort Police are the victim's reluctance to report to the police, difficult evidence, the lack of assistance provided by the family to the child as a victim so that the child experiences trauma and acute depression.
