Abstract

General Background: Corruption is an extraordinary crime requiring effective legal measures. Specific Background: In Indonesia, accomplices in corruption crimes receive the same punishment as principal offenders, raising concerns about fairness. Knowledge Gap: Current laws do not differentiate culpability levels, leading to potential injustices. Aims: This study examines the proportionality of sentencing norms for accomplices in corruption cases. Results: Findings show that equal sentencing contradicts proportional justice and creates legal inconsistencies. Novelty: The study highlights conflicts between the Anti-Corruption Law and the Criminal Code, advocating for reform. Implications: Policy adjustments are needed to align sentencing with justice principles, ensuring fairness in anti-corruption enforcement.

Highlights:

  • Unequal Punishment: Accomplices receive the same sentence as principal offenders, raising fairness concerns.
  • Legal Inconsistency: The Anti-Corruption Law conflicts with the Indonesian Criminal Code on culpability.
  • Policy Reform Needed: Sentencing should align with proportional justice to ensure fairness in law enforcement.

Keywords: Proportionality, Accomplices, Offence
