Pilihan tema tersebut dilatarbelakangi oleh banyaknya permasalahan didalam perkara tindak pidana perzinahan. Kitab undang-undang hukum pidana Indonesia telah mengatur tindak pidana perzinahan . namun dalam perkara tersebut terdapat kekurangan terhadap sanksi bagi pelaku perzinahan. Sedemikian sempitnya pengertian perzinahan didalam KUHP yang sangat berbeda dengan yang ada di kehidupan masyarakat Indonesia yang religious. Didalam masyarakat, perzinahan memiliki arti yang cukup luas, setiap bentuk perzinahan baik terikat perkawinan maupun tidak merupakan perbuatan yang melanggar nilai-nilai kesusilaan. Adapun permasalahan yang ada di penelitian ini yaitu sanksi terhadap pelaku perzinahan menurut hukum pidana, sanksi perzinahan menurut hukum adat Batak, dan pelaksanaan sanksi yang diberikan kepala adat Batak dan kepolisian terhadap pelaku perzinahan. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu yuridis empiris. Sumber data penelitian ini menggunakan sumber data primer dan skunder. Lokasi penelitian ini diwilayah Gunung Tua Tonga Kecamatan Padang Bolak Kabupaten Padang Lawas Utara, Sumatra Utara. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan wawancara. Berdasarkan penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa perzinahan didalam hukum pidana nasional memiliki sanksi pidana penjara paling lama Sembilan bulan, sedangkan didalam hukum adat Batak memiliki sanksi berupa ganti rugi materiil hingga sampai hukuman mati terhadap pelaku perzinahan. Sehingga pelaksanaan sanksi yang diberikan hukum adat Batak akan di awasi oleh pihak kepolisian dan jika terdapat penyimpangan-penyimpangan selama proses, maka pihak kepolisisan akan mengambil wewenang penuh terhadap pelaku tindak pidana perzinahan
