Abstract

The principle of legality is one of the fundamental principles in criminal law that guarantees legal certainty and protects individual rights. This research aims to analyse the application of the principle of legality in the Indonesian criminal law system. The method used is normative legal research with statutory and conceptual approaches. The results show that the principle of legality has been adopted in Indonesian criminal law through Article 1 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code. However, in practice there are still some challenges in the application of this principle, such as the existence of unclear and multi-interpretive laws and regulations. This study concludes that efforts are needed to strengthen the application of the principle of legality in the Indonesian criminal law system, among others through harmonisation of laws and regulations and improving the quality of law enforcement.
