Abstract

ABSTRACT

Purpose of the Study: The repressive law enforcement carried out as a response against the crime of terrorism has caused issues with law enforcement's effectiveness in Indonesia. It was discovered that the normative approach did not cut the chain of terrorism. On the contrary, it created new terrorists.  This paper aimed to construct the relationship between law enforcement, judicial decisions, and legal objectives.

Methodology : This research used the dogmatic legal research method by statutory and library approaches. The data of this research were gathered from news and judicial decisions on terrorism cases.

Results : Results suggest that law enforcement, especially normative-repressive judicial decisions, has resulted in new issues, namely society's rampant actions against the state, particularly towards the law enforcement apparatus.

Applications of this Study : This condition will further imply with the rampant actions of state delegitimating in society. In line with that, this paper suggests that a new style of law enforcement should be applied in solving terrorism cases in this country.  The said approach is law enforcement who emphasizes the humanity of the suspect, heavily addressing the protection of the suspect's rights in the crime of terrorism.

Novelty/Originality of this study: This is the pilot research discussing judicial decisions in courts concerning terrorist cases in Poso and its surroundings.

Keywords: Law enforcement, judicial decisions, terrorism, social resistance, legal justice.
