Criminal Law Regulations in Korea and Indonesia


Korean criminal law has been codified as contained in the Korean Criminal Code (Criminal Code of the Republic of Korea) which was promulgated under Law No. 239 dated 18 September 1953. Indonesian Criminal Law was codified in the Criminal Code (Law No. 1 of 1946 jo. Law No. 73 of 1958). The Indonesian Criminal Code Systematics (KUHP) is different from the Korean Criminal Code systematics.

Criminal Code (Book of criminal law), If the systematics of the Criminal Code is compared with the Criminal Code, the very striking difference that can be seen in this case is that the Criminal Code does not distinguish between Crimes and Violations, while the Criminal Code still distinguishes them.
Some comparisons between the Indonesian Penal Code and the South Korean Criminal Code

1. Participation
In the Criminal Code, the forms of inclusion include:
• Participants (Co-principlas), ie two or more people jointly commit a crime (Article 30).
• Instigator (Instigator), a person who incites another person to commit a criminal offense (Article 31).
• Accessories (ie) those who help or provide assistance to others who commit a crime (article 32)
• The instigator who failed (article 30, paragraph 3)

2. Comparison and Repetition
• Comparison both according to the Criminal Code and Criminal Code are both general provisions.
• Repetition according to the Criminal Code is a general provision, whereas according to the Criminal Code it is a Special Provision. In Korea, this residive problem is seen as more dangerous to the public interest than concursus. This is reasonable, because a person has already been convicted of a similar crime but not deterrent. Of course in this case social economic and political problems must be taken into account.

3. Remove the right of prosecution
• The removal of the right of prosecution is not regulated in the Criminal Code.
• The abolition of the criminal right according to the Criminal Code can be found in Article 83 through Article 85, including:
a. Sentenced to death (Article 83)
b. Expiration (Article 84)
Those who abolish criminal conduct according to the general provisions of the Criminal Code:
a. Expired (Articles 77 to 80)
b. Cancellation of award (Article 81)
c. Restoration of rights (Article 82).

4. Mistakes, Be Legal, and Cause and Effect
The Criminal Code in the formulation of articles in its General Provisions does not explicitly separate the provisions concerning:
• The absence of error / exclusion of mistakes as a basis for criminal negation.
• The absence is against the law or eliminated is against the law as a reason for criminal negation.
However, the Criminal Code in some fields has been more advanced because some of the material we have learned through criminal law knowledge has been listed in the Criminal Code, which includes provisions regarding children under 14 years (Article 9), about evil will (Article 13 ), concerning negligence (Article 14), concerning misrepresentation of facts (Article 15), concerning legal errors (Article 16), and concerning the practice of commercial activities (Article 20).
