The Comparison of Justice Collaborator Implementation in Indonesia and Netherlands in Revealing Human Trafficking

Justice collaborators are witnesses to perpetrators willing to cooperate with law enforcement to uncover an organized crime that was also involved in exchange for leniency. Unlike the justice collaborator in the Netherlands, which has guaranteed legal certainty and legal protection. Based on this background, a problem is formulated regarding 1) How is the implementation of justice collaborators in Indonesia and Netherlands in revealing human trafficking? 2) What are the similarities and differences in the implementation of justice collaborators in Indonesia and the Netherlands in revealing human trafficking? The type of research in this research is normative by using the law approach and comparative approach. The research specification in this research is descriptive-analytical, namely analysis by describing the applicable laws and regulations associated with legal theories and positive law enforcement practices related to problems. These legal research materials came from secondary data obtained through the literature and were described systematically. The results of the research indicate that the laws and regulations in Indonesia regarding the justice collaborator of human trafficking still have many shortcomings in their application. Justice collaborators in Indonesia are regulated in Law Number 31 of 2014 concerning the Protection of Witnesses and Victims, Circular Letter of the Supreme Court Number 4 of 2011, and Joint Regulation Number 11 of 2011, but from the laws and regulations in force in Indonesia regarding justice collaborators, this still does not provide legal certainty where in its application law enforcement ignores the rights of justice collaborators. The Netherlands has regulated justice collaborators in the Dutch Criminal Procedure Code, which is further regulated in the Instructions for Commitment to Witnesses in Criminal Cases and Besluit Getuigebescherming in practice, the fulfillment of the rights of justice collaborators will be fulfilled. Responding to this needs to be done so that legal protection and certainty for justice collaborators are carried out properly by adding regulations related to the Indonesian Criminal Procedure Code.
