with a death criminal conviction as well as the court ruling

4

2010. Then the applicant I made an appeal of appeal in

the High Court of Pekanbaru and remains sentenced to death, but the verdict

is no longer based on the criminal acts of Article 340 of the Criminal Code,

instead of doing so Article 365 (4) of the Criminal Code (4) of the Criminal Code

as stated in the ruling No. 71 /PID/2010/PT.R is dated 14

April 2010 (vide proof -P1 and proof P-2); 7. While the applicant II is charged with a criminal offence

8. Although the petitioners in his criminal trial have submitted

, however, due to the previous legal counsel that

was appointed by the Tanjung Karimun Hall District Court for

advocating for the petitioners not to be found. make the memory of the cassation and

The Panimmune Hall of the Court of State Court did not help

the new Pekanbaru who sentenced the petitioners to the death penalty

direct legal force fixed (inkracht van gewijsde) after passing

deadlines filing memory cases as provisions Section 248

paragraph (1) and paragraph (2) KUHAP; 9. That the death penalty is clearly detrired to the interests and rights of

the constitutionality of the applicant's right to live and retain the life which is guaranteed and protected by the 1945 Constitution. And if later on the petitioners are executed, then

there is a breach of the permissions of the applicant which is expressly guaranteed by Article 28A and Article 28I the paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution;

10. That under Article 51 of the letter MK bill, the party that has legal

standing as the applicant in the Constitutional Court is personal

5

the citizens of Indonesia whose rights and/or its constitutional authority

are harmed by the enactment of Undang-Undang; 11. Related to the presence of constitutional rights and/or constitutitional authority,

Putermination Number 006/PUU-III/2005 Constitutional Court ruling that the loss of the rights and/or constitutional authority should meet the five condition, that is: a. the rights and/or constitutional authority of the applicant

provided by UUD 1945;

b. the right and/or constitutional authority by the applicant

is considered harmed by the expiring Act

testing;

c. The constitutional loss must be specific (special) and

actual or at least a potential that is according to the reasoning that

reasonable is certain to occur;

d. (causal verband) connection between the loss

referred and enactment of the Act is moveed;

e. It is possible that with the request of the application,

Constitutional losses such as the postured will not or are no longer

occurring.

That the five terms have been met by the applicant:

the first term has been met with the guarantee of a right of life and

maintaining the life provided by Article 28A and Article 28I of the paragraph

(1) UUD 1945 to the petitioners. By virtue of the threat

the death penalty of Article 365 of the paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code as a verdict imposed

to the Competent Petitioners still although not

executed must be severely harmed the petitioners As

is required by the second term above. The third requirement that

constitutional losses must be specific and actual or potential

according to the reasoning will be the case with a death sentence against

The petitioners make the right of life of the petitioners very potential

to be broken. And related to the necessity of causality

between the losses by the enactment of the Act as a condition

the fourth can be proven by the enactment of the death penalty provisions in

6

in Section 365 of the paragraph (4) of the Penal Code may make the Applicant who has

sentenced to death even if not executed to be severely harmed,

for the nature of life that the constitution has guaranteed to be. The dreary.

As well as the necessity of the possibility that it obscured

the application, then the constitutional loss as the postured will not

or no longer occurs as a fifth term, is very clear to have fulfilled,

as it was granted the a quo plea definitely could cause

The constitutional loss of the applicant for life will not happen;

12. As such, the applicant who is an Indonesian who

has been sentenced to death and has a legal force fixed by the Court

although not yet executed has a legal position (legal standing) for act as the party or the applicant in request judicial review a quo, as provided in Section 51 paragraph (1) MK Act as well as the establishment of the Constitutional Court in Putermination Number 006 /PUU-III/2005 as the description above (vide proof P-1 s.d proof P-4);

III. THE REASONS FOR THE APPLICATION OF THE MATERIEL TEST

ARTICLE 365 PARAGRAPH (4) KUHP AGAINST ARTICLE 28A AND 28I PARAGRAPH (1) UUD 1945

13. That based on the verdict of the Court of Appeals that

a force of law remains as we have mentioned above

that the petitioners were sentenced to death, for committing a criminal offence

Article 365 of the paragraph (4) The Penal Code, which is the un: Ibid, the Redaksi of PT. New Ichtiar

Van Hoeve, Set Of Indonesian Republican Legislation

(Compiled According To Engelbrecht System), page 1410-1411: "Threated by a death or criminal for life or for a period of time." time

certain most longer twenty years, if the deed resulted in a wound

weight or death and is performed by two or more persons with

aligned, accompanied by one of the things extend in numbers

1 ° and 3 ° "

As for the sound of the number 1 ° and Number 3 ° referred to in Section 365 of the paragraph

(4) above is:

7

"if the deed is done at night time in a house or

the enclosed driveway that is home, on the public road, or in the carriage

the running fire or tram"

" when the guilty one goes into the scene of committing a crime by taming

or climbing or by wearing a fake key child, a false order or

the fake office clothes "

14. That the death penalty dropped to the applicant

represents the maximum threat from the criminal offence of Article 365 of the paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code

which in this case we tested with the provisions of Article 28A and Article 28I

paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution which reads:

Article 28A:

"Everyone has the right to live, as well as for the right to retain

life and life"

Article 28I paragraph (1):

" Right to life, right to not be tortured, freedom of mind and heart

conscience, religious rights, rights to be enslaved, the right to be recognized as

personal before the law, and to not be prosecuted on the basis of laws that

apply receding is human rights that cannot be reduced in

any circumstances ".

15. In spite of the dissent from the Expert on the efficacy

the phrase "cannot be reduced under any circumstances" in respect of the provisions

Article 28A and Article 28I paragraph (1) the 1945 Constitution on top of which is linked

with Article 28J (2) The paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution or the difference of opinion

in connection with the interpretation of the right to life (right to life) in

the international instrument of the law is whether absolute as non derogable right

or not as listed in Article 3 DUHAM and

forth, we argue that the right to life it is the right

that is very important and very fundamental to the human being

The application must be required instead of other rights as

which is outlined by Article 28I (1) of the Constitution of 1945; 16. In connection with the case of a quo that the penalty threat provision

the death of Article 365 of the paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code is a provision that

inconstitutionals to the provisions of Article 28I and Article 28A paragraph (1) of the Constitution

1945 granting rights live for a person, if connected

8

with the provisions of Article 28J paragraph (2) of the Constitution of 1945 which provides

the limitation of the Act on a person's right, due to the act

criminal Article 365 paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code as a criminal offence " theft with

violence " not

is the most serious crime to be punished

death as required/constrained by the incasu Act Article 6

paragraph (2) ICCPR (International Convenant On Civil And Political Rights) which

has passed through Act No. 12 of 2005 on

International Convenant On Civil And Political Rights

(International Convenan on the Rights of Pill And Politics):

" In countries which have not been met the death penalty, sentence of death

may be imposed only for the most serious crimes in accordance with the law

in force at the time of the commission of the crime and not contrary to the

provisions of the present Covenant and to the Convention on the Prevention

and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. This penalty can only be carried

out pursuant to a final judgement by a competent court ".

17. Article 365 felon (4) of the Criminal Code as a felony "theft

with an allied force resulting in an allied force resulting in grave or death wounds"

not as "the most serious crime" due to such a felony

not criminal acts that "adversarily affect the economic, cultural and

political foundation of society" and carry " a danger of incalculable

gravity" such as Felony Narcotics And Severe Human Rights Violations

Indonesia Postulate of Article 365 paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code that states, "Endangered

17

with a dead or a lifetime prison criminal or during any given time

at most twenty years, if the deed resulted in a heavy or dead death

and was performed by two or more persons with an alliance, also accompanied by

one of the things that is explained in numbers 1 and 3" harms the right

the constitutionality of the Applicants determined in Article 28A and Article 28I paragraph

(1) The 1945 Constitution, which states:

a. Article 28A UUD 1945: "Everyone has the right to live as well as the right

maintains life and life".

b. Article 28I paragraph (1) of the Constitution of 1945: " The right to life, the right to not be tortured, right

independence of mind and conscience, religious rights, rights to not

enslaved, the right to be recognized as a person before the law, and the right to

for not being prosecuted on the basis of the receding law is a fundamental right

the human cannot be reduced under any circumstances ".

With the reasons at its point as follows:

1. That the provisions of the death penalty in Article 365 of the paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code (4) of the Criminal Code

constitute the unconstitutional provision of the provisions of Article 28A and

28I the paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution that provides a right to a person, because

a criminal offence. Article 365 paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code as a criminal offense "theft

with force directly resulting in heavy or dead wounds"

is not the most serious crime that can be imposed

the death penalty is like the one required by the in casu Act Article 6

paragraph (2) ICCPR (International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights

which

has been passed through Act No. 12 of 2005 on

International Covenant On Civil And Political Rights (Kovenan

International On Rights Civil and Political);

2. A criminal offence of Article 365 (4) of the Criminal Code as a felony "theft

with an allied force resulting in an allied cause resulting in grave or grave injuries"

not as "the most serious crime" because of the criminal offence

foundation of society"and carries"a danger of incalculable gravity" as

of criminal narcotics and human rights violations Weight [vide

[3.8] weighed that by basing on Article 51 of the paragraph (1) MK Act

and the Court's ruling on legal standing (legal standing)

as well as being associated with the losses experienced by the petitioners,

Court:

The applicant has the constitutional right granted by the Constitution of 1945,

in particular Article 28A and Article 28I of the paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution, as well as the applicant

consider the constitutional right to be harmed by the Invitation-

Invite to be tested;

Constitutional loss The applicant is specific (specifically) and actual;

There is a causal relationship (causal verband) between the intended loss

and the enactment of the testing Act, as well as there

the possibility that with the The application has been granted. The loss

constitutional as the postured will not be or no longer occurs;

Based on such consideration, the Court of opinion, the applicant

has a legal position (legal standing) to apply for a quo;

[3.9] Draw that Because the Court of Justice is prosecuting

the plea a quo, and the applicant has a legal standing (legal

standing), next the Court will consider the subject;

Subject

Court opinion

[3.10] Stated that before considering the subject matter,

The court needs to quote Article 54 of the MK Act stating, "Court

Constitution can request a caption and/or the corresponding meeting treatises

with a moderate plea inspected to the Consultative Assembly

People, DPR, Regional Representative Council, and/or President" in conducting

the testing of an Act. In other words, the Court may

request or not to request the captions and/or meeting treatises in respect of

with the application being checked out to the Consultative Assembly

People, House of Representatives, Council The Regional Representative, and/or the President,

depends on the urgency and relevance. Due to the legal issues and

a plea a quo was clear, the Court saw no urgency and

19

its relevance for requesting the captions and/or meeting treatises of the Assembly

People's Consultative Assembly, House of Representatives, House of Representatives,

and/or the President, so the Court directly breaks the plea. a quo;

[3.11] weighed that after the Court examined with the same witness

a request for a quo and the evidence of the papers submitted by the petitioners,

The court argued for the following:

[3.11.1] That the Applicant implores the constitutionality of testing of Article 365 of the paragraph (4) The Penal Code that states:

Article 365 paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code:

" Endangered by a death or a lifetime prison criminal or

for a certain time most of the twenty years, if the deed

resulting in heavy or dead wounds and done by two or

more by allied, also accompanied by one of the things that are explained

in number 1 and 3 ".

The article, according to the applicant, conflicting with Article 28A and

Article 28I paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution;

[3.11.2] That the The applicant is a convict who is sentenced to death by the Pekanbaru High Court for committing a criminal act as

determined in Article 365 of the paragraph (4) KUHP. The provisions of the death of the criminal death

in Article 365 of the paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code (4) of the Applicant is a provision

that is unconstitutional to the provisions of Article 28A and Article 28I of the paragraph (1) of the Constitution

1945 giving one's life rights;

[3.11.3] That against constitutional testing Article 365 paragraph (4) of the Criminal Code is related to the death penalty against Article 28A and Article 28I of paragraph (1)

The Constitution of 1945, the applicant postulate that a criminal offence

with allied violence resulting in heavy or dead injuries

not is the most serious crime (the most serious crime) that can

be charged with death. According to the Court, a felony theft with

violence that resulted in people's death included a serious crime

(the most serious crime), as the crime raised fears that

is overwhelming on the society, which is the same as fear of the aftermath of

drugs. Because his evil deeds have caused the same psychological effect.

20

then it is reasonable while the threat of the pidation is the same. The criminal threat

against both crimes is expected to elicits the effect of jera and

prevention for committing crimes both for the defendant and for the

society.

A death criminal threat to the crime of theft with violence

it is not the only criminal threat, but it is

one of the alternatives of two other alternatives, namely the criminal threat of a lifetime

or during any given time the most of twenty years. Thus the judge

may choose the alternative to the death penalty in accordance with the weight or

of the crimes committed;

[3.11.4] That it is related to the right of life which cannot be reduced in circumstances. any (non derogable rights) postured the applicant, the Court

has dropped the Number 2-3/PUU-V/2007 Decree, dated 30 October 2007

and has given legal consideration to Article 28A and Article 28I

paragraph (1) The 1945 Constitution, among other things, " ... that is seen from an original perspective of intent

forming the Constitution of 1945, all human rights listed in Chapter XA

UUD 1945 the objection can be limited. Original intent-forming the Constitution of 1945

which stated that human rights can be limited also was amplified by

The placement of Section 28J as a closing section of all provisions

set about the rights Human rights in Chapter XA UUD 1945. Thus,

systematic interpretation (systematische interpretatie), human rights that

is set in section 28A to Article 28I Constitution of 1945 subject to

the restrictions set out in Article 28J of the Constitution 1945. System systematics

regarding human rights in the 1945 Constitution in line with systematics

settings in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which also put

sections on the restrictions on fundamental rights human as the concluding chapter

29 verse (2) reads, " In the exercise of his rights and freedoms, everyone

shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law laws for the

purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of

others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the

general welfare in a democratic society. " Thus, according to the Court,

The death penalty as a form of human rights restrictions has been justified

constitutionally or based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

(Universal Declaration of Human Rights);

21

[3.11.5] That by section 28A and Article 28I the paragraph (1) of the Constitution of the 1945 Constitution of the Petitioners is the stone which is also a stone

test in the request of Number 2/PUU-V/2007 and Number 3/PUU-V/2007 as well as

The case has been severed by the Court in the Court of Justice.

2-3/PUU-V/2007, dated October 30, 2007, then consideration-

considerations in the ruling mutatis mutandis it becomes a consideration

also in the ruling a quo;

[3.12] A draw that based on the above considerations

then the applicant ' s request must be declared unwarranted according to

the law;
