Based on the description in The applicant has a legal position (legal

on the KPK and the legal relation (causal verband) against the application of Article 34

Clearly, this interpretation has harmed the rights of the applicant as a citizen for

advocacy of the eradication of the corruption of corruption committed by the applicant I

and the applicant II.

C. REASONS FOR APPLICATION

Consideran weighed the letter a Law Number 30 Year 2002 about the Commission

The eradication of the Corruption Criminal Code states that in order

embody a fair, prosperous, and prosperous society based on Pancasila

and the Basic Law of the State of the Republic of Indonesia in 1945. This

indicates that systemic disease of society is even

grounded in corruption, hinting its fair society,

prosperous and prosperous due to financing funds for prosperity, and

welfare has been robbed by the corrupt officers;

The despicable acts as mentioned above must be eradicated by the apparatus

law enforcement such as Police, Prosecutor and Judge. This apparatus should uphold

the law for the money of the people is no longer easy to be taken by the corrupt, anyone

him. Whether he is a state official, or simply "paracai" only;

The eradication of criminal corruption that occurs until now has not been able

is implemented optimally. Therefore, the eradication of felon

corruption needs to be improved professionally, intensive, and continuous

because corruption has harmed the country's finances, the country's economy, and

impeding national development. That government agencies that

handle criminal corruption cases have not been functioning effectively and

11

efficient in eradiating criminal corruption. For that, the Commission

The Eradication of Criminal Corruption (KPK) is present to close the drawdown

of conventional law enforcement agencies;

KPK as the agency superbody and super expected due to firecracking

His authority in the eradication of criminal corruption and

his willingness to fight against the desire to not corruption becomes

the front-runner in the eradication of criminal corruption. Since the word

its authority is attached to this institution, it is as reasonable as the person-

the person of the KPK must be qualified in accordance with the standart

The expectation of the community, to be honest, bold and slightly "Mad";

On December 23, 2003, the head of the KPK's first volume was inaugurated, and on

on December 5, 2007, the DPR-RI voted for five KPK-led volumes. In

its journey, the KPK leader in test with various storm gusts for

weakers even paralysed the institution ' s homelessness. Many corruptors

fight back performed by parties who are not happy with the work

KPK. Starting from brain-toting his authority to sow nails

the development of the people on the KPK, including its leader.

Is the Antasari Azhar, the Chairman of the KPK Period II which was exposed to the decoding of the KPK

the institutional KPK. This decoding is a domino effect to

the institutional KPK. One by one, the leader is tangled with criminalization of his

. Despite the fact that the truth exists;

In accordance with the KPK Law, the KPK leadership numbered 5 people and ran the term

for four years. But there's a problem. When Antasari

Azhar was dismissed as one of the leaders of the KPK by the President. The question

next is, who is looking forward to and how long the term of office

at its disposal is associated with Article 33 of the paragraph (1), paragraph (2) and Article 34 of the Act

KPK;

To elect the KPK Chief, the Committee The KPK selection has performed

selections from May 25 to August 27, 2010 to search for 2 names

selected. It was Busyro Muqoddas and Bambang Widjojanto to be chosen as the candidate

the leader of the anti-government. Before these two names were handed over to the DPR-RI,

Pansel election of the KPK Chief Executive. Pansel through one of its members,

Todung Mulya Lubis, stated that the tenure of the KPK Replacement Manager

is four years old. In the meantime, the Commission III of the Republic of Representatives stated that it would be different

12

back, that the tenure of the KPK has been one year. Although

there was one of the Fractions in the Commission III of the DPR RI that was originally PPP

stated that the replacement of the KPK for four years, then

the party was "loyo" due to the sound pressure of the majority and stated the term

Head of the KPK leadership for a year. The DPR-RI is broadcasting the interpretation of the time

the post of the replacement of the KPK under Article 21 of the paragraph (5) of which

The KPK leadership works collectively the collegial. So that the provisions of Article 34

are defined, the KPK's successor leader ends at the same time. Accordingly,

the replacement of the elected KPK will only continue the remainder of the term,

one year;

Based on that, the petitioners applied to the Judge

Constitution to provide clarity of interpretation. The term of the successor leader

KPK is associated with the application of Article 34 of the KPK Act. Because, misinterpretation

against such Section 34 will or at least potentially contradictory to

Article 28D paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution that reads "Everyone is entitled to

recognition, warranty, protection, and fair and fair certainty and

equal treatment before the law ";

The Speaker of the DPR-RI section against Article 34 of the KPK Act led

The replacement of the elected KPK (Busyro Muqoddas), only in office for one

year. It has resulted in legal uncertainty over the term

the co-chair of the elected KPK;

The uncertainty of the term also affects the work effectiveness

The KPK leader in the eradication of the criminal offense Corruption. Even at once

potentially weakening the corruption eradication agenda which the KPK

aims to realize a fair, prosperous and prosperous society

based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution;

If the country-through The Constitutional Court of the Constitutional Court-absent

in giving certainty the interpretation of the term/or potentially detrimentally to the right

charges

corruption. The uncertainty of the law, it causes employment inefficiency

the eradication of corruption carried out by the KPK, while weakening the function

prevention (preventative) and the Suppression (repressive) function carried out by the KPK. Institution

10

that. The work of KPK's work led to a result of the

advocacy of the eradication of corruption conducted by the applicant I and the applicant II. of origin 34 states," The leadership of the Corruption Eradication Commission

holds the post for 4 (four) years and can be reelected only for

once term " must be defined according to the purpose and function (range)

of its answer to the community ' s needs for the eradication of criminal acts

corruption.

Thus, essentially the replacement of the KPK leadership in terms of happening

the leadership vacancy [Article 33 of the paragraph (1)] aims to optimize and

the effectiveness of eradication is not criminal corruption. Leadership change expected

16

can strengthen the institutional KPK as an institution that has

the authority in the eradication of corruption corruption.

Related to the replacement of the replacement KPK leadership, the provisions of Article 34

indeed do not Unequivocal, decisively. Nevertheless, the term

leader of the replacement KPK must be based on the purpose of the replacement itself,

namely the optimization and effectiveness of the eradication of criminal corruption and

strengthening the institutional KPK. This is important to remember the middle KPK

being tested with a range of moisturizing efforts to eradicate corruption. Corruptor fight

back by a certain group center is shadowing the KPK step.

Based on such arguments, the provisions of the term

leaders of the KPK as set out in Section 34 also apply to

the leadership of the replacement KPK. Time restrictions for replacement KPK Leaders

all the time the rest of the KPK leadership will be replaced only

causes inefficiency of corruption eradication due to replacement leadership

does not have sufficient time to Realising his vision and mission in

the eradication of corruption. Such fulfilment is important to do

given the institutional KPK requiring the integrity of the leadership

height and good track record then the four-year-old KPK leadership

year needed. If a narrow interpretation is only one year

office, then the presence of the KPK leadership will only be able to fulfill the formalities

terms of office. While the meaning of the replacement of the KPK is more

aimed at the effectiveness of corruption eradication and strengthening institutional

KPK so it can push for law enforcement and the eradication of corruption

that is itself.

C. 1.4. Interpretation Article 34 based on Analogical Interpretation

Tafsir members of the DPR-RI about the term of the leadership of the KPK for the duration of

one year in conflict with the interpretation of the analogies that are commonly used. Interpretation

analogies to the Article 21 paragraph (5) of the KPK Act and the foundation

The thought of which equates the leadership term of the KPK replacing it with

terms of office acquired by replacement of the House members in the mechanism

intertime alternation (PAW) is a misinterpretation. This is because of the process

a change in the House of Representatives through PAW shows the occurrence of a selection process that

differs between members of the House who entered the legislative body based on

the PAW mechanism with the replaced House member. which is through the process

17

direct general election under Act Number 27 of the Year 2009

about MD3 (Proof P-5). Let alone the House agency should be seen as an institution

politics so that the turnover of the House members through the PAW mechanism serve to

continue the political objectives of the replaced member party of the House of Representatives. Thus

that change led to a member of the incoming House member

malalui the PAW mechanism only continued the remainder of the term of the House member

reed.

The appointment of the term of the KPK Replacement Leadership. by using the "

analogy" should be compared to the appropriate and appropriate

terms

. The KPK leadership is not an institution that runs

the purpose and function of the political institutional, but rather a very heavy function,

noble and must be done genuine to do the law's affirmation

and the eradication of corruption.

That right there is a state institution that when there is a vacancy, then

must be a replacement for that post to continue

The remaining office is replaced, but that is the case it applies if it has been stated

decisively in the provisions set about Related agencies

for example, change under Act No. 15 of 2006 on BPK

(Evidence P-6) which in Section 22 set up: (1) if the member of the BPK

dismissed, the change was held. Intertime, and paragraph (4) states "members

BPK substitutes continue the remaining office". while in the Act

KPK as state agencies such as the BPK no legal basis

expressly stated that the tenure of the KPK Replacement Leadership

uses the switching mechanism Intertime and/or secra resolute

states that the replacement leadership continues the remainder of the term,

so that the DPR-RI interpretation of Article 34 of the KPK Act where the replacement leader

only leads the remainder of the leadership position. being replaced is erroneously

and cannot be justified;

If it will be analogized then it should be DPR-RI and

the government is sulking to similar processes and rules that apply and/or

ever done at a similar institution or agency that performs the

part of the same function. In this case the KPK as the Law Enforcement Institute

carrying out part of the judicial functions can be analosed with

the process of replacement of the term in terms of vacancy in office

18

law enforcement agencies that also carry out judicial functions in

this Constitutional Court of Justice;

Rumusan phrase Article 33 paragraph (1) KPK bill "in case of emptiness

KPK leadership, the President filed for the candidate for the DPR-RI " identical

with Article 26 paragraph (1) of the Law No. 24 of 2003 on

Constitutional Court reads " In case there is a vacancy of the Judge

Constitution for quitting or dismissed, the institution is authorized

submitted a replacement for the President ". Frasa submitted a replacement, between the Act

Number 30 of 2002 on the KPK equal to Act No. 24

In 2003 about MK (Evidence P-7). The application of this article was once carried out by

The Constitutional Court by the turn of Jimmly Assidiqie as a judge

the constitution which ceased due to resignation and was replaced by the Judge

Constitution of Harjono. At that time, although Constitutional Court Justice Harjono replaced the Judge

Constitution Jimmly Assidiqie, his term of office remained for 5 years as

is set in Article 22 of the Law No. 24

formulated in it by taking into account the context of the society's reality

(vide J. A Pontier, 2008. The Discovery of Law. Translated by Prof. Dr. B. Arief

Sidharta, SH. Bandung: Window Mas Pustaka_Members IKAPI, hal. 45).

Based on the above, the provisions of Article 33 of the paragraph (1) that

reads, "in terms of the vacancy led by the Corruption Eradication Commission,

The President of the Republic of Indonesia is submitting a replacement for the replacement. DPR-

RI "juncto

holds the post for 4 (four) years and can be reelected only

for one term ";

ß that when referred to Article 34 of the explanation, it is mentioned that Article a quo

is sufficient Obviously, that means there's no other explanation that could be referenced to

illuminate. this;

ß That in accordance with expertise in experts, expert views, anyone

Leadership of the Corruption Eradication Commission, then his term is 4

22

years, whether he was removed from the start or later of the process

a change in the middle of the road;

ß that the case at the Corruption Eradication Commission for example, happens to be changed

Commission leader The vacant corruption eradication was abandoned by

Antasari Azhar, then later changed with the election of Dr. M.

Busyro Muqoddas;

ß that there was a debate, although according to experts, the DPR and the Government.

already issued a decision, saying the tenure of Busjro

Muqoddas will end in December 2011, but this section according to

experts must be explained from the perspective of the Tata State Law;

ß That the expert in founding of the person who continued or who replaced

The Chairman of the Commission Corruption eradication stopped in the middle of the road, in

expert understanding, should be a four-year term with

another leader, in the sense, if raised after a period that

normal it runs 2 or 3 year, then it must then count 4 years

start from his appointment when replacing the position;

ß That for such replacement processes, could actually refer

to what is done in the Constitutional Change process, for example

recently Constitutional Judge Arsyad Sanusi, no. may continue

its work, then replaced by a new judge, and the new judge is not

continuing the working period left by Arsyad Sanusi, but the new Judge

has a term of five years;

ß That the expert compares with continuing the existing term in

Representative. Members of the House, in the event of a change of time, the concept

clearly is the interchange of time. Thus, spending the remainder of the term

left by a previous replacement, so that the person

replaces for the House member, member of the DPRD or DPD members is

the person who can vote next. It should be, according to the expert, if the concept

is accepted to replace the Director or the KPK Commissioner, should

not be done for new elections, and should be the leadership is

the person who can vote number order 6th in the House;

ß That according to the expert, the means of switching between the DPR and the KPK is different, because

replacing no longer the person who gets the next vote when

is exercised fit and proper test in the House;

23

ß that according to the expert, if seated on such concrete legal events to

in existing State of State Law Theory, according to the expert, the KPK is the institution

country independent because first is called in excplite in the Invite-

Invite about the Corruption Eradication Commission, second, KPK independent

for not being part of the executive branch structure, if the KPK

becomes part of the executive branch structure, then KPK will be called

as executive agencies not independent agencies. KPK is

independent agencies in expert understanding, since he is the institution

state independent, then in many theories the state of the state

is mentioned how to fill the country's institutions independent.

The most commonly used is that there is a pattern called the switch

of the window or stages terms, and for the Corruption Eradication Commission,

being posted simultaneously. The first period was installed simultaneously, and stopped simultaneously

as there was no change in the middle of the road, but the period commissioner

second, there were stops in the middle of the road. That in an expert understanding, the

is an initial step, applying a level of switching;

ß that charging of independent agencies in many countries was ushered in

not simultaneously in exchange and Not concerted for

continuity;

ß That there is some loss if done simultaneously due to time

the post is four years, so that one regime could define the process

independent independent filings including with KPK;

ß That if there is room to start a stage term, according to the expert,

The Constitutional Court in its place reinforces such a pattern

so that it does not continue the remainder of the existing term but

is start from zero so that later if the three commissioners stop

or that four people stop, there is still a long left to

continuity. That is, the first character of the institution

country independent, the second character is in the law-law theory

the country, put forth by Asimov, that a person or leader of

Independent state institutions should be dismissed with cause-

cause is clear. Second, its external powers, including

executive power, should not be free to decide how to process

the commissioning of the commissioners of the state institutions

24

independent of that, third is the charging or replacement process

commisoner should be performed with a single-level pattern, not in order

one stage;

ß That is indeed not called explicitly in Law Number

30 of 2002, so that the Constitutional Court, has a legal position

strong to explain the change or change in the middle of the street

commissioner at the Tindak Eradication Commission Criminal Corruption;

ß That if this pattern is followed, according to expert, then continuity could

be a serious issue, which is then, the efficiency in its contents too

will be a great record, for example, to replace the Antasari to

Busyro Muqoddas, Pansel works as much as The pansel works

in the initial charging, while the term is given a short

short, according to the expert, it is the country's financial bleaching;

ß That state agency independent, the charge was attempted unconcerted

although at first everything is concerted, e.g. patterns change in

the American Senate, at first it must have been simultaneous but then set to exist

a subsequent change process which is not the same as the goal in

building a continuity, so according to the expert, the theory used in

many countries can be patterns for state commissions that

independent because if all are replaced simultaneously, the loss is

one particular regime could . P. 11 An activist writing of the applicant I in the eradication of corruption;

In addition, the applicant has also submitted three experts who have

heard of his notice under oath in the May 23 trial

2011 and 31 May 2011, which represents the following:

1. Saldi Isra

ß That Article 34, being the only section addressing the issue of

the office or the duration of a Corruption Eradication Commission and

in Article 34 is mentioned, " The leadership of the Eradication Commission Corruption and may be reelected only

for a single term;

ß that the KPK leadership consists of five KPK Members holding the

term for four years from each of the five KPK Leaders

that is.

ß that the stakeholder for four years, and not in one package

along with the other leadership who at the previous time was selected;

28

ß that it may have been previously unanticipated as we assumed

possible KPK leadership would survive forever, and in terms of happening

the vacancy of the KPK leadership, somewhat of the ambush, and though The Act

provides a way to fill the vacant KPK leadership because

in Article 33 it is said that in terms of the vacancy of the KPK leadership,

The President of the Republic of Indonesia proposes a replacement for the replacement. to

The People's Representative Council of the Republic of Indonesia and where it is associated with

Article 34, the leadership of the KPK is proposed and will serve four years;

ß That the expert does not see in the KPK Act knows what

called for intertime alternation, it is not known in

the KPK Act, so that the interpretation of the expert remains to the conclusion that

although chosen in the middle of the term, not in one package, its interpretation

is to keep a full term, meaning the term

of office for four. year;

ß That the existence of the uncorrectness of the a quo Act poses

problematic, but experts see that there is one challenge to make one

interpretation, whether it is the traditional interpretation that is treated

during this valid or not valid;

ß That of the facet continuity, institutional work continuity, would be better

if the leadership of one important and strategic institution such as the KPK is not

all new. This will create the institutional work continuity of

the time to time, so that from continuity, the option will be

very beneficial and in terms of the effectiveness of the KPK leadership individual work, which

is newly appointed on end of 2010, this option will also be much better,

cause if it should come to an end in 2011, it is very ineffective

caused by a short term, so there would not be much

its benefits for public, in particular for the eradication of corruption, for

law enforcement jobs, even the entire selection process

until the appointment is almost equal to half of the

office remaining;

ß That in terms of cost is issued and in terms of time, it is clear

one waste, an unjustified expense, and in terms

KPK independence, that option will also be more beneficial ahead,

cause by looking at the experience in several other countries, the election

29

which is a non-packaged definition

as a reference everywhere, in order to preserve the effectiveness, continuity,

and the independence of the leadership, and interpretation that wants experts

gets up as a way out to guarantee no KPK Command

at once is appointed by one board or one President who

strengthenes the KPK institution forward;

ß That the system staggered also began to be embraced by many parties, including also

by swadaya institutions society, so that it becomes one trend, one

interpretation that is done to guarantee continuity and legal certainty

which is guaranteed by Article 28D paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution;

ß That the Chairman of the KPK is selected, entitled to obtain guarantee

legal certainty and equal opportunity, although such interpretation

may not be fully accepted in the community of legal society, but

experts see in a state order perspective in Indonesia is one

challenges and can also refer to experience in other countries;

ß That experts do not see there is a conflict of the KPK Act itself or the Constitution

1945, in particular Article 28D paragraph (1), therefore, space for interprets

it is returned to the Constitutional Court as a single interpreter

The Basic Law of 1945 yes, as the guardian of the constitution and

according to the expert if only looking at the benefits in the context of effectiveness,

continuity, and independence, there is a logic and the basis of constitutional law

to interpret such;

ß That expert understanding of the meaning of prospective replacement members, whether

which is concerned to remain or already be penalized in

this is replacing the vacancy of the KPK Chairman replacing one

vacancy in relation to Article 34 that the commission's leadership, whether

KPK Chairman or Vice Chairman of the KPK, holding office for four years

and against a substitute must also be given the same rights, serving for

four years;

ß That it is not in the context of intertime switching like

occurring in the House, continuing the remainder of the term;

ß That if only viewing Article 33 alone, would be fooled by the interpretation

that prospective replacement members are the continued replacement of the remainder of the term

office, but in the context of a more holistic and systematic interpretation,

30

according to the expert, anyone who is appointed to fill a vacancy, will

have the same right to continue, to live one term

the office, as written in Article 34 is that for four years;

ß that it is a breakthrough of the interpretation which is the territory

the authority of the Constitutional Court and therefore experts submit everything

to the wisdom and wisdom of the Constitutional Court of Justice;

ß That the candidate phrase a replacement member may incur one interpretation

that does not entirely fit in some things and experts try

use or take a holistic word to combine all of

the approaches that are put forth, i.e., the approach or interpretation

systematic, benefit, or a legal certainty to see in one

a more intact context that the replacement for a single term that

happens vacuum, is associated with Article 34 of the term and

is associated also with the benefit of expediency, may be provide justification for

a replacement that does not continue the remainder of the term left, but

also performing a single term full;

ß That Article 28D paragraph (1) is granted as a constitutional right to any

citizen, and expert using the staggered approach for

replacements occur on various commissions or institutions;

ß that it may be never unimaginable when a commission leader

such as the KPK or the Judicial Commission is assumed, construed, chosen

the collective was then replaced collectively and when suddenly the leadership was

new that has nothing to do at all with the leadership already

being replaced in different phylogeny, different approach, different

paradigms;sen as the Head of the KPK;

ß That according to the expert, there are some reasons that experts do not see there

the provision that the entire KPK leadership should be selected at the same time

and ends on At the same time, so that there is no provision

The entire KPK leadership must take office during a single wave of filial time

ß That because the KPK leadership consists of five KPK Leaders or

Commissioners KPK and if associated with Article 34, the Head of the KPK

holds a four-year term p>as well as the same treatment before the law as referred to in

a testing request of the a quo is the parties that have been

elected to be the replacement of the Corruption Eradication Commission.

Based on the description above, the Government argues that

the presumption of the applicant stating that by force

provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act have incurred the loss of rights and/or

the constitutional authority of the petitioners and is therefore considered

contrary to the provisions of Article 28D the paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution is not

Number 129 /P of 2010, which establishes Dr. Muhammad Busyro

Muqoddas, SH, M. Hum as Chairman of the Commission

Corruption Eradication In the remainder of the term of 2007-2011, it has been

According to the Government provisions Article 34 of the KPK Law which states:

"The leadership of the Corruption Eradication Commission holds the post for 4

(four) years and can be re-elected only for once in term"

in the implementation of the Article does not cause any confusion,

the kerancuan, and loss to anyone. Even the KPK Substitute

is selected whose term is continuing the previous KPK leadership term

is still given the right to run and be re-elected for 1

incur confusion but instead provides legal certainty.

2011 which will end in December 2011, whereas 1 (one) of the Fractions

the PPP Fraction states that the term of the KPK Replacement Office is 4

The Corruption Eradication Commission is continuing the remainder of the term. term

Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission of 2007- 2011 which

will end in December 2011.

5. That, the House of Representatives view the provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act

states: " The leadership of the Corruption Eradication Commission holds the position

for 4 (four) years and can be reelected only for once

office", in its implementation it does not cause doubts, confusion,

loss nor in an unenforceable position, it

marked by the Decision of the President of the Republic of Indonesia Number 129 /P

Year 2010, which establishes Dr. Muhammad Busjro Muqqodas, SH., M. Hum

as Chairman Arrested Member of the Corruption Eradication Commission in the remainder

year term 2007-2011, has embodied the existence of legal certainty

(rechtszekerheid) against the tenure of the Leadership and Member of the Commission

Corruption Eradication.

Based on that, the House argued that the provisions of Article 34

The a quo does not cause in the a quo request as

referred to in Article 51 of the paragraph (1) of the MK Act;

b. the rights and/or its constitutional authority as referred to in

"The explanation of Article 51 of the paragraph (1)" is deemed to have been harmed by the expiring

Act.

Regarding the constitutional loss parameters, the Constitutional Court has

the road, but the second period commissioner, there is a stop in the middle of the road.

In an expert understanding, it is the first step, applying the matter

the change of berjenjang. Independent at many

agencies are ushered in unison and are not concerted to to the DPR-RI, the selection committee of the KPK replacement leadership

through one of its members is Todung Mulya Lubis, stating that

The term of the replacement of KPK's replacement is 4 years. While, Commission III

DPR RI stated contrary, that the term

replacement chairman of the KPK was 1 year;

ß DPR-RI expressed the interpretation of the term of the replacement of the KPK's successor Command

under Article 21 of the paragraph (5) in which the KPK leadership works collectively

the collegial. Thus, the provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act are defined, the replacement leader

KPK ends simultaneously. Therefore, the replacement of the KPK leadership

is elected only to the remainder of the term only, one year;

ß that the representation of the DPR-RI member against Article 34 of the KPK Act

leads to the replacement of the elected KPK, i.e. Busyro Muqoddas, only

served for a year, resulting in uncertainties

the law against the tenure of the elected KPK's replacement leadership.

The uncertainty of the tenure of the office has also impacted. work effectiveness

The KPK leadership in the eradication of criminal corruption, even while

potentially weakening the corruption eradication agenda by the KPK which

aims to realize a fair, prosperous society, and a sejehatera

based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution;

ß Interprets against tenure The leader of the KPK for 1 year

by the DPR-RI and corroborated by Keppres Number 129 /P

Year 2010 on the Appoination of Muhammad Busyro Muqoddas as

The leader of the KPK and as well as the Chairman of the KPK was selected based on

the textual norms of the KPK Act are in normal circumstances. While in the Invite-

Invite a quo not to normatively mention the leadership term

a replacement for the KPK should be in an abnormal condition. The provisions of the term

post as referred to in Article 34 of the KPK Act should be defined

not only against the KPK leadership, but also to the Chairman

replacement of the KPK. It is in accordance with the systematic, logical,

teleological, and analogical method of interpretation;

ß that the interpretation of the term of the term of the successor of the KPK by the DPR RI and

The government against the provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act has incur

The uncertainty of the law against the term of the KPK replacement leadership that

occurs when one of the KPK Leaders stops or is dismissed

as contained in Article 32 of the paragraph (1) number 1, number 4, number 5, and

number 6, so the Constitutional Court should give an interpretation

right against The provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act, in order to do so do not exist

again a diverse interpretation of the concerned party against

such provision resulting in the absence of any legal certainty that

contradictory Article 28D verse (1) A 1945 Constitution that reads, "Any

people are entitled to recognition, guarantee, protection, and legal certainty

the fair and the same treat before the law."

[3.14] Draw that to prove his control, the applicant has

filed the evidence tool The letters are P-1 to Exhibit P-11,

and have submitted three experts named Prof. Dr. Saldi Isra, SH., Erry

Riyana Hardja Pamengkas, SE., and Dr. Todung Mulya Lubis, SH., LLM., which

indicated under oath in the trial of May 23, 2011

and May 31, 2011, in which the rest has been contained in the sitting

Perkara section above, which in the paper describes as follows:

Expert Prof. Dr. Saldi Isra, SH.

ß Article 34 of the KPK Law, according to the expert being the only speaking section

the issue of the term or the duration of a KPK Chairman and when referred to

to the Explanation of Article 34 of the KPK Act, it is mentioned that Article a quo is sufficient

clearly, it means that there is no other explanation that can be referenced to

62

illuminating this. Any member of the KPK, then his term is 4

years, whether he was appointed from the start or later in the process

a turn in the middle of the road. People who continue or who replace

KPK leaders who stopped in the middle of the street, should be in office

same 4 years with the other leadership, in understanding, if appointed

after a normal period running 2 years or 3 years, then

must be counted 4 years starting from its appointment when replacing the position

that is. The replacement process, may refer to the process

a change of the Constitutional Judge that is either imitated or used as a system

for the independent agencies, because of what happened at MK, the process

The change in MK is proceeding naturally;

ß Expert compares with continued existing tenure in the members

DPR. In the event of an intertime replacement, the concept is clear

intertime replacement, i.e. spending the remainder of the term

left by the previous member, so that the person who replaces

for the members of the House, the member The DPRD or DPD members are the ones who

can be the next most votes. It should be, according to the expert, if the concept

is accepted to replace the Director or the KPK Commissioner, should

not be done for new elections, and should be the leadership is

the person who can vote number order Sixth in the House. The way to replace

between the DPR with the KPK leadership is different, because that

replacing no longer the person who gets the next most votes when

is exercised fit and proper test in the House;

ß KPK is the independent state agency because first is called in

explicytes in the KPK Law, second, KPK independent as it does not become

part of the executive branch structure, if the KPK becomes a part of the

executive branch structure then KPK will be referred to as executive agencies

not independent agencies. KPK is independent agencies in

expert understanding, since he is a state agency independent, then

then in many constitutional theories are mentioned how to

the charging of state institutions independent, and the most common

used is a pattern called the alternating switch or

stages tei>(four) years and can be re-elected only for once a term";

60

[3.13] Draw that the applicant postulate Article 34 of the KPK Act

contrary to Article 28D paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution for the principal reasons

as follows:

ß In accordance with the KPK Act, the KPK Chairman amounts to 5 people and runs

that term for 4 years, but there was a problem when Antasari

Azhar was dismissed as one of the leaders of the Ks; page-break-after:always">

Corruption Eradication that Severed Approval of the House of Representatives

People's Republic of Indonesia against the Candidate for the KPK, i.e. Brother

Dr. Muhammad Busyro Muqoddas, SH., M. Hum., and approve the term

KPK Leadership Replacement is continuing the remainder of the KPK leadership term

of the 2007-2011 period of the year ending in December 2011;

The House of Representatives views Article 34 of the KPK Act stating: "Leadership

Corruption Erade 28D paragraph (1) 1945 Constitution. The selected KPK leadership,

reserves the right to obtain a guarantee of legal certainty and opportunity that

equals, although such interpretation has not been fully accepted in the community

the legal society, but experts see in perspective grammar in

Indonesia is one challenge and can also refer to the

experience in other countries;

ß expert understanding of the meaning of potential replacement members, whether or not the

is concerned to be criminal in this case

is replacing the vacancy of the KPK Leadership, replaces one

vacancy in relation to Article 34 of the KPK Act. The leadership of the commission,

whether the KPK Chairman or the Vice Chairman of the KPK, held the post for four

years and against a replacement should also be granted the same rights, in office

for four years. It is not in the context of the replacement

intertime as it happens in the House that continues the remainder of the term.

If only to see Article 33 of the KPK Act alone, it would be fooled by

the interpretation that the candidate member replacement is the replacement that

resumes the remainder of the term, but in the context of interpretation that

is more holistic and systematic, according to the expert, anyone who is appointed to

fill a vacancy, will have the right the same for

67

continue, to undergo a single term, as written in

Article 34 of the KPK Law is for four years;

ß It is a breakthrough of the interpretation which is the region

the Court's authority The Constitution and therefore experts submit everything

to the wisdom and wisdom of the Assembly of Justice of the Constitutional Court. Article

28D paragraph (1) of the Constitution of 1945 is granted as a constitutional right to any

citizens, and experts use the devoled approach to

the replacement that occurred on various commissions or institutions.

The constitutional question by associating with Article 28D of paragraph (1) of the Constitution

1945 because of the functional office that must be distinguished by the post

representation, which has the right to warranty of legal certainty and

justice;

[3.15] A draw that against the applicant's request, the Government

has given a statement in the April 28, 2011 trial and has

delivered the written caption received in the Court of Justice on

on May 18, 2011, which in the first place describes the following:

ß That against the applicant ' s plea above, there are two issues that

could the Government convey. First, is it true the provisions of Article 34 of the Act

KPK is considered to be contrary to the provisions of Article 28D paragraph (1) of the Constitution of 1945;

Second, whether the provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act need to be reinterpreted or

needs to be asked interpretation, or being interpreted as conditional constitutionality

or conditionally constitutional by being interpreted as already

Government delivered.

ß After the Government scrutinized the various rulings Court

regarding conditional constitutional, Government argues that interprets

returns or conditional conditional or conditional constitutionality

the norm charge material in paragraph, section or section in law,

if in the norm or section a quo has incurred a loss

constitutionally, both against individuals, Indonesian citizens, bodies

private and public laws, indigenous and institutional laws

states, and against such norm charge materials, there is no door

of laws constitutional or at least to meet a dead end or

dead lock at in its implementation. According to the Government, the provisions of Article 34

the KPK Act stated, " The leadership of the Corruption Eradication Commission

68

holds the post for 4 years and can be re-elected only to

once term ", in its implementation it does not incur any doubt,

it does not cause confusion and in its implementation. not

raises things that cannot be implemented. This was proven and

indicated by Presidential Decree Number 129 /P/2010. That means that

is very different if we are lecturing or paying attention, as

The Constitutional Court has ruled in relation to the Attorney ' s term

the Great. There is no provision when the stop, when

reappointment, but if in the KPK Act in accordance with Article 34

The KPK Act is being unequivocal, there is no doubt, no

there is confusion. that there have been actions that have been done to

lift and dismiss.

The provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act, there is no need for constitutionality

conditional or conditionally constitutional and Article 34 KPK laws are not

contrary to Article 28D paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution.

[3.16] Draw that against the applicant, Council

The People's Representative has given the written caption received at

The Court of Justice on 9 June 2011, the full body has been loaded

on section Sit Perkara above, which is in the following:

ß In accordance with the House III Commission Report on the Election Results of the Candidate

Replacement of the Corruption Eradication Commission at the plenary Meeting

The House of November 30 2010 has reported that in the Plenary Meeting

Commission III of the House on the Future Successor to the KPK, Commission III

after hearing of the views of 9 (nine) of the fraction, of which 8 (eight)

fraction in his view stated that the replacement term

The KPK leadership continues the remainder of the leadership term. The 2007-

2011 period of the period ending in December 2011, while 1 (one) of the fraction is

The PPP Fraction stated that the term of the replacement of the KPK's replacement is

4 (four) years. But ultimately the Plenary Commission III of the House of Representatives decided

that regarding the term of the replacement of the KPK leadership was to continue the remainder

the term of the KPK leadership period of 2007-2011 was due to expire

in December 2011. The DPR has issued a House Decision Number

01 /DPR RI/II/2010-2011 on the Agreement of the People's Representative Council

Republic of Indonesia Against the Nomination of the Leadership Commission

66

until the appointment is almost the same as half of the time

the remaining posts; the cogable of the cost and the timeslot, is clearly one

waste, an expense that could not be found. Justified, and in terms

KPK independence, that option would also be more beneficial to the front,

cause by looking at the experience in some other countries, the election

that trait was not at once. one package, already used

as a referral everywhere, in order to maintto Article 33 of the paragraph (2) of the KPK Act

only occupied the remainder of the term, issuing a relatively equal fee

magnitude by the selection process of five KPK leaders. That is, really

is an unnecessarily and unnatural extravagance. According to

Court, if it is defined that the replacement leader is only

replace and complete the remaining term of the leadership

replaced then that the replacement mechanism should not go through the process

replaces the members who have stopped according to Article 34 of the KPK Act only

forwarding the time The position of leadership that is replaced or earns a period

a full four-year term? "

70

[3.18] A draw that before the Court answered the issue,

there is a legal fact that the Indonesian House of Representatives and the President determine the term

the member who replaced the KPK Chairman who quit in his term

is to continue only the remainder of the term of the chairman of the KPK.

In determining the term of the successor, the DPR RI

based on the interpretation of Article 21 of the paragraph (5) the KPK Act determined that

The KPK leadership is working collectively collegial, so the provisions of Article 34 of the Act

KPK It is defined that the Head of the KPK is stopping simultaneously. With

as such, the replacement Leader who replaces the leadership member

quits in his term only acts as a substitute for intertime,

as it only continues the term of the replaced member of the leadership

On the other hand, the petitioners refer to Article 34 of the KPK Law stating,

" The leadership of the Corruption Eradication Commission holds four (four)

years and can be re-elected only for once. office ", which

the four-year term applicants for the leadership of the KPK, is a

term that applies either to the Chairman who is appointed

simultaneously from the start and the Chairman who replaces the Leadership

quit at the time of his term;

[3.19] Balanced That According to the Court, the House and the President can just

do the interpretation of a provision of the Act in order

implementation of the a quo Act. However, the Court is in charge

assessing the constitutionality of the interpretation of an Act norm that

is exercised by both the DPR and the President, if that interpretation

results in its threat of respect, protection, and protection of the Constitution of the Constitution. and the fulfillment of the rights-

the constitutional rights of the citizens as well as in order to guarantee it

the mandate and the norms of the constitution correctly. It does not mean that

The court has come out of its authority examining the conflict norms

The Act against the Constitution of 1945 as it is textually stated

in the Act. Under the provisions of Article 1 of the paragraph (2) of the Constitution of 1945 which

states, "Sovereignty is in the hands of the people and exercised according to

Basic Law", contained the meaning that hosting

the state government by The organs of the state must be based on the constitution.

That is the basis that the state of Indonesia is a country of the system

71

a constitutional government, which in its implementation is set up to the Court

Constitution to escort and guarantee that the constitutional system

runs. Therefore, in exercising his duties and responsibilities

as a constitutional judicial institution that is escorting the constitutional norm in order to

correctly walk in order to conform to the spirit contained in

the constitution, The Court next to reads and understands the text of the constitution, as well

is obligated to dig and find the values and philosophical fundamentals that

contained in the constitution to decide any issues that are confronted

in The Court. In this case, if the Court finds the interpretation of the norm

The Act of contradictory, deviating and/or incompatible with

the constitution and spirit of the constitution, then based on function, duty, and

its authority to escort constitution, the Court is authorized to assess

the constitutionality of the interpretation of an Act norm. Accordingly,

in assessing the applicant a quo, the Court should also assess

the interpretation of the provisions of the a quo Act at the implementation rate for

guarantees the hosting of a country based on the system The constitutional constitutional

by the Constitution of 1945;

[3.20] A draw that the Court will assess the constitutionality

interpretation of the provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act against the norms contained

in the 1945 Constitution. The applicant postulate that the designation of the term

member of the KPK Replacement Leader who only continued the remainder of the term

members of the KPK leadership who quit before reaching the four-year period

is at odds with the the principle of fair legal certainty as

determined Article 28D paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution. According to the applicant's term

members of the replacement KPK leadership not only completed the remainder of the term

members were replaced, but occupied a full term of four

years.

According to the Court, the provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act itself are very clear and

firmly that the tenure of the KPK leadership is four years, and that it is not

raises the matter of constitutionality. However, the provisions of Article 34 of the Act

The KPK is a constitutional issue when the DPR and the President

interpret that the provisions of Article 34 of the KPK Act do not apply to

all members of the KPK Leadership and only apply for the leadership of the KPK

72

was appointed simultaneously five people from the beginning of the period, while for

the leadership that replaced the member of the incumbent who quit in time

in office, only continued the remainder of the member's term.

DPR and President, basing its interpretation on the provisions of Article 21 paragraph (5)

The KPK Law that determines that the KPK leadership is collective, so that the five

members of the KPK leadership are collectively held in office. one period four <ate

6. DIFFERENT OPINIONS (DISSENTING OPINION)

Against Article 34 of the KPK Law, which states " Commission leadership

Corruption Eradication holds up to 4 (four) years and can

reelected only for once. office. " Constitutional Judge M. Akil

Mochtarsubmitted dissenting opinion as follows:

I. Regarding legal status (legal standing) the applicant

That the article a quo is absolutely not related to the right

the applicant ' s constitutional. If any such article harms the right

the constitutional rights of the Indonesian national, then the loss is meant to be no

in relation to the constitutional rights loss of the applicant as

which has been postured;

80

That the applicant does not meet the qualifications as set

in Section 51 of the paragraph (1) MK Act due to the Undng Test

Invite a quo the applicant is not able to explain and prove:

1. I qualify as the applicant in the a quo;

2. The rights and/or its constitutional authority is deemed detriable

The applicant with the enactment of the a quo Act;

Furthermore if the constitutional loss of the applicant is measured by the parameter

the Makamah verdict Number 006 /PUU-III/2005 and No. 11 /PUU-V/2007, which

must meet the following sizes:

a. the rights and/or constitutional authority of the applicant granted

by UUD 1945;

b. The rights and/or constitutional authority by the applicant are considered

aggrieved by the enactment of the testing Act;

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

or At least some of the potential, which according to reasonable reasoning could be

is confirmed to be;

d. (causal verband) link between the intended loss

and the expiring Act (s) of the testing;

e. It is possible that with a request granted,

Constitutional losses such as those that are postured will not or are no longer

occurring;

That if the applicant is a person of the country

Indonesia and the legal entity considers aggrieved by the enactment of Article

34 KPK laws, the loss is not being specific and actual or not-

The potential for which a reasonable reasoning is confirmed will occur,

no causal link (causal verband) between losses that

postured by the applicant with the enactment of Article 34 a quo

is mohoned for testing. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that with

granted the applicant's request, the constitutional loss

as the postured will not or no longer occur. Although the

applicant postures as a taxpayer (tax payer) and concern with

the public interest and the eradication of corruption, there is no causal link

due to the constitutional loss of the applicant with the entry of Article 34 of the Law

81

KPK and there are also no specific (special) and actual

or potential losses according to reasonable reasoning that can be certain to occur. By

therefore, the right to apply to Section 34 of the KPK Act

is the current KPK Chairman who feels the constitutional right that

specifically and actual potentially losses by force.

Article 34 of the a quo Act.

Thus, I argued that the petitioners were not

having legal status (legal standing) to apply for

a quo.

II. In the Point of Request

That the KPK Act was born in the situation of the Indonesians experiencing

"emergency states" legal affirmation, especially in criminal corruption,

rising crime corruption is not offset by increased performance

the law enforcement apparatus is policing and the prosecutor. Accordingly,

the creation of a Corruption Eradication Commission which has the authority to

co-ordinate, supervision, conduct investigation, and prosecution

A criminal corruption, even in certain things may take Matter

The corruption that is being handled by both law enforcement agencies, if

has sufficient reasons as defined as Section 8,

Article 9, and Article 10 of the KPK Act. In fact,umber 49 Year 2009 on Power Of Justice (Sheet Country

Republic Of Indonesia In 2009 Number 157, Additional State Sheet Number

5076);

5. AMAR RULING

Trial,

ß Declared a grant of the Applicant for the whole;

78

ß Declared Article 34 of the Law No. 30 of 2002 on

Commission of Eradication Of Corruption (sheet Of State Of The Republic

Indonesia In 2002 Number 137, Additional Gazette Of The Republic Of St>Article 29 juncto Section 21 of the paragraph (1) letter a, and Article 33 juncto Article 29 Law

KPK. For that, the interpretation of Article 34 of the a quo should be put in place with

proportional approach using a recognized interpretation of the law

universally that is historical, systematic, and teleological (holistically);

That based on systematic interpretations, the KPK Act in particular about

the change of the KPK leadership, must be traced to the provisions of Article 30 of the KPK Act

on the KPK leadership selection procedure instead of a prospective member of the replacement

82

KPK leadership, that is to first form the selection committee,

selectest candidates twice the amount of office needed, and the House votes for five

candidates are needed. Systematically and logically, then the candidate for the KPK leadership

to be submitted by the Government is 10 (ten) people of results

selections from the KPK leadership selection committee. This is based on the historical interpretation

logical, rational consideration, as much as the KPK leadership needed

for a 4-year term because it refers to the provisions of Article 21 of the paragraph (1)

letter a law of the KPK i.e. " Commission leader Corruption Eradication consists of 5

members of the Corruption Eradication Commission ".

That the terms of the KPK leadership term in Article 34 of the KPK Act

that is 4 years, are reserved for the normal selection of the KPK leadership normally

or ordinary, in accordance with Article 21 of the paragraph (1) letter a juncto of Article 29 and not the candidate

members of the KPK leadership substitutes as defined in the provisions

Article 33 of the KPK Act, only procedures should be under Article 29, Section

30, and Section 31 of the KPK Act, which is reserved for the selection of KPK leadership

which has expired and is not for a replacement candidate because

vacancy led by KPK . That under the provisions of Article 33 of the KPK Act,

in the event of a vacancy, the President submitted a candidate for a replacement

to the DPR and required according to the Act proposing a multiple

amount of the vacancy of the KPK leadership, and The DPR is required to select the number of candidates

the mandatory replacement of the KPK leadership (such as the candidate selection process

replacement of the KPK then). As such, based on a systematic systematic interpretation,

then the KPK Leader's successor term ends together with

the end of the previous elected KPK leadership term.

That if the interpretation of Article 34 of the KPK Act follows interpretation of the Court ' s ruling

stating " contrary to the State Basic Law

The Republic of Indonesia in 1945 as long as it is not understood that the Chairman

The Commission for Eradication Corruption of the Corruption Leadership was appointed

simultaneously nor is the replacement leader raised for

replacing the leader who quit in his holding term

the post for 4 (four) years, and afterwards it can be reelected only

for once office ", instead that it will cause uncertainty

laws, conflicts of norms and disarray in the system of candidate candidates

KPK in the coming days, as in accordance with Article 21 of the paragraph (1) letter a

83

The KPK Act, the KPK leadership consists of 5 (five) members of the Eradication Commission

Corruption and if the President bases it on the ruling a quo,

then the President will only file 8 (eight) candidate names The KPK leadership,

while the DPR is required to vote for 5 (five) KPK candidates in accordance with

provisions of Article 30 paragraph 10 of the KPK Law which declared the DPR RI mandatory

elect and set the 5 candidates needed. As such,

in my opinion, in the foreseeable future, there will be a KPK Command

number of 6 people, except the President is consistent against Keppres Number

129 /P of 2010 dated December 10, 2010, which in Keppres such

states that the current Chief KPK leadership term is

continuing the remainder of the 2007-2011 term or the permanent President

filing for the candidate for the KPK, twice the amount required, that is 10

persons (vide Section 30 paragraph 9 of the KPK Act).

Based on the entire description above, in my opinion,

the application for testing Section 34 of the KPK Act is not a matter of

constitutionality of a common or abstract norm (general and abstract

norms) but rather the issue of execution of the field or is

the problem of concrete norms (concrete norms), which is legal policy

of the Act makers, given the charge of the leadership and member

state agencies, each different and have characteristic

in its own, therefore already the wish of the applicant

is rejected by the Court.
