Tinjauan Yuridis Penegakan Hukum terhadap Pelaku Ujaran Kebencian (Hate Speech) di media Sosial dalam Perspektif Hukum Pidana
Abstract
This study aims to examine the juridical review of law enforcement against perpetrators of hate speech on social media from the perspective of criminal law in Indonesia. The approach employed is normative juridical, by analyzing the provisions of legislation such as Law Number 19 of 2016 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE), the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP), as well as various related regulations and court decisions. The results of the study indicate that the regulation of hate speech already has a clear legal foundation, particularly through Article 28 paragraph (2) of the ITE Law and the provisions concerning insult, defamation, and provocation under the Criminal Code. Nevertheless, law enforcement still faces various obstacles, such as ambiguity in legal norms, difficulties in proving subjective elements, and inconsistencies among law enforcement officers in applying the appropriate articles. This study concludes that regulatory harmonization, enhanced capacity of law enforcement officers, and public understanding of the limits of freedom of expression are needed so that the handling of hate speech on social media can be carried out more effectively and fairly.
