THE URGENCY OF REPRESENTATIVES ESTABLISHMENT OF WITNESESS AND VICTIMS PROTECTION AGENCY (LPSK) IN LOCAL AREAS
Abstract: Granting protection
of witnesses and/or victims by LPSK that standing only in the capital of the Republic of
Indonesia, Jakarta, there are problems to be debate
among legal practitioners. The problem comes when a large number of
requests that come to the LPSK is derived from various regions across Indonesia
in the motherland, which often witnesses and/or victims who came from across
the region who are far enough away will certainly require a large fee to head
to Jakarta so that witnesses and/or
victims are having
trouble accessing request
protection to LPSK.
LPSK itself set in
Article 11 of
Law On Witnesses
and Victims Protection.
Representatives establishment office in fact already regulated on
Article 11 paragraph (3), but in practice despite the fact a lot of the
problems that come from the region, LPSK up to this moment does not form a
representative in the local area.
