Legal Protection for Victims of Defamation Through Restitution

Khairul Umam, Dahlan Dahlan, Darmawan Darmawan

Abstract


This study aims to explain the legal protection of victims of defamation through restitution. This is normative legal research, which is a legal method that is carried out by studying library material or secondary data and research on the legal foundations, legal systematics, legal synchronization, legal history, and comparison of the law. The results of the research show that the legal protection for victims of defamation through restitution has not been implemented because there are no specific rules governing the protection of general law and restitution of victims in the positive law of Indonesia. Conditions like this have discredited the position of a victim of defamation which also has the potential to suffer economic losses. Furthermore, the differences in the protection provided by such law have been contrary to the legal norms contained in the Constitution 1945 of Indonesia as contained by Article 27 paragraph (1), Article 28D paragraph (1), and Article 28I paragraph (2) which essentially governs all citizens equal status in the law, have the right to equal treatment before the law and are free from discriminatory treatment on any basis.
