Mental disorders, legal protection, criminal offensesAbstract
This research aims to analyze the legal protection of criminals who experience mental disorders, focusing on the application of Article 44 of the Criminal Code (KUHP) which regulates criminal liability for individuals with mental health conditions. This research uses normative and empirical approaches, and collects data through literature studies and interviews. The results show that although there are legal provisions that provide exceptions for perpetrators with mental disorders, there is still vagueness in the application of the law, which can result in injustice. Legal protection that should be given to mentally ill offenders includes the right to psychosocial and medical rehabilitation, as well as protection from discriminatory acts. This study concludes that Indonesia's criminal justice system needs to improve legal protection mechanisms to ensure justice for mentally ill offenders, as well as increase public understanding of the issue.
