Prohibiting Sexual Deviance and Disorientation under Article 13(d) of Indonesian National Police Regulation No. 7/2022: A Legal and Psychological Analysis

Azmi Abdul Aziz, Jaenudin Jaenudin — Thu, 06 Aug 2026 15:58:19 +0800

Article 13 letter d of Indonesian National Police Regulation Number 7 of 2022 prohibits "sexual deviance" and "sexual disorientation" as part of Polri members' personal ethics, yet employs terminology without normative definition, raising concerns of conflict with contemporary scientific consensus and human rights principles. This study examines the normative construction of Article 13 letter d from a legal science perspective and evaluates the concepts of sexual deviance and disorientation through modern psychological theory, including DSM-5 and ICD-11 standards. Employing normative legal research with legislative, conceptual, and comparative approaches, supported by a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature in law, psychology, and human rights, this study finds that the norm violates the principles of legal certainty (lex certa) and proportionality, relies on abstract and evaluative formulations, and invokes psychological terminology already rejected by contemporary science. These deficiencies risk institutionalising stigma and conflict with the principles of non-discrimination and privacy. The study recommends reformulating Polri's ethical norms to replace abstract, scientifically unsupported terminology with prohibitions that target concrete conduct, thereby aligning institutional regulation with legal principles, scientific developments, and international human rights standards.

Cyber-Based Human Trafficking for Sexual Exploitation: An Islamic Law Perspective

Mamduh Hilmi, Muhammad Azkia Fahmi — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0800

Abstract: This article examines the emergence of human trafficking based on cyber sexual exploitation as a contemporary form of human trafficking operating through cyberspace, resulting in legal vacuums and regulatory ambiguity. This study aims to identify various forms of online sexual exploitation trafficking and to examine Islamic legal perspectives on appropriate criminal sanctions for such acts. The method used is normative juridical with a conceptual approach, grounded in secondary data collected systematically through literature review. The collected data are then qualitatively analysed through processes of decomposition, interpretation, and evaluation of the legal materials examined. The findings reveal that although online sexual exploitation trafficking is not explicitly recognised in classical fiqh literature, the essence of the act is substantively contrary to the principles of maqashid sharia. Within the framework of Islamic legal classification, this crime is categorised as a jarimah ta'zir, in which the determination of sanctions is left to the authority of the state or a judge. The novelty of this research lies in the effort to integrate classical Islamic legal concepts with modern cyber legal mechanisms. This approach has not been systematically studied in the context of digital-based human trafficking. The contribution of this research is to provide a normative and moral framework as a basis for developing both Islamic and national legal policies to address increasingly sophisticated cybercrimes, while strengthening the ethical foundations for protecting human dignity and honour in the digital age.

Lembur Pakuan in West Java: Agroecological Resilience, Food Sovereignty, and Defense Management

Food resilience is increasingly a strategic concern because disruptions in production, land availability, market access, and external supply can reduce a state's capacity to maintain essential needs during crises. This study examines the Lembur Pakuan system in West Java as a local socio-ecological resource relevant to food sovereignty and Defense Management. Using a qualitative ethnographic approach, data were obtained through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and archival analysis in Bogor, Cianjur, and Tasikmalaya. The findings show that huma, talun, and leuit form an interconnected local resilience mechanism: huma diversifies production, talun strengthens ecological and nutritional diversity, and leuit provides communal food reserves and social protection. These functions support food availability, access, utilization, and stability while reducing exposure to market volatility and excessive external dependence. From a Defense Management perspective, the significance of Lembur Pakuan lies not in treating traditional agriculture as a military capability, but in recognizing local food capacity as a supporting resource for national resilience and strategic autonomy. The principal constraints are land conversion, weakening intergenerational knowledge transfer, limited institutional recognition, and policy misalignment. The study proposes an integrated revitalization framework linking spatial protection, knowledge regeneration, institutionalization of leuit, and market support with national food resilience and defense-policy planning
