JAKARTA - Commission III of the DPR RI will immediately compile and discuss the Draft Criminal Procedure Code or Criminal Procedure Code.
Chairman of Commission III of the House of Representatives, Habiburokhman, is targeting the preparation process for the draft and academic paper of the Criminal Procedure Code to be completed during this session.
"And the next session will soon be discussed as a DPR initiative bill," Habiburokhman told reporters, Wednesday, January 22.
Habiburokhman said that his party is targeting the Criminal Procedure Code which can only apply together with the enactment of the Criminal Code on January 1, 2026. According to him, the importance of ratifying the Criminal Procedure Code is because the Criminal Procedure Code is a formal law that operates the implementation of the Criminal Code as a material law.
"The spirit of the legal politics of the Criminal Procedure Code must be the same as the politics of the legal political spirit contained in the Criminal Code," said the Gerindra Deputy.
Habiburokhman said that the new Criminal Code contained a revolutionary spirit of improvement by prioritizing the principle of restorativeness and substantive justice. Therefore, the Criminal Procedure Code must also contain the same values.
"We also absorb input from the public to improve the Criminal Procedure Code. The most input is for the detention institution to be repaired, so it is not easy for investigators to detain people. It is proposed that there is a kind of active pretrial mechanism, where all cases must be examined first by pretrial judges so that further decisions can be submitted to detention or not," he said.
Another thing, added Habiburokhman, is how to implement the rights of suspects such as the right not to be tortured, the right to legal assistance and the right to receive health care.
"We will involve as many elements of society as possible in the absorption of aspirations related to the preparation of this Criminal Procedure Code," he concluded.
