Menggali Hakikat dan Makna Pidana Peringatan sebagai Pidana Pokok dalam Sistem Peradilan Pidana Anak

Abstract

One of the special things regulated in the SPPA Law is regarding the criminal warning to children, the legal problem of imposing a warning penalty is not optimal because there are no technical rules for law enforcement officers. In addition, the message behind the warning of a child has not been conveyed properly, especially regarding the nature and meaning and its relationship to the best interests of the child. This causes the imposition of a warning against children that can injure child protection efforts as contained in the SPPA Law. Using normative research methods, this research will explore the nature of the warning punishment as the main crime and its implementation against children.
