In the practice of law enforcement in Indonesia, the phenomenon of poor
organization of the criminal justice system that continually arise in the community is any
opportunities for corruption are always not free of controversy indication judicial
decision and the results of the handling of corruption that are considered barren. Nearly
every medium of information in print, electronic, digital internet makes about corruption,
which provides an corruption measures are weak when examined more deeply, it can be
complex and problematic in the criminal justice system held in Indonesia and the impact
on the criminal justice system.
The success of a criminal justice process relies heavily on evidence which
successfully revealed or discovered. In the trial process, particularly with regard to the
witness, many cases are not revealed due to lack of witnesses who can support law
enforcement duties. In fact, the presence of witnesses and victims is a crucial element in
the criminal justice process. The presence of witnesses and victims in the criminal justice
process has been less public attention and law enforcement. The cases are not disclosed
and are not resolved due to the many witnesses and victims afraid to give testimony to
law enforcement officers since received threats from certain parties.
Therefore, the view of the fact that there is protection of witnesses reporting a
very important relation to the resolution of criminal cases. Community's willingness to
give testimony or report a criminal act of corruption will facilitate the process of
settlement of corruption so that the law can be enforced. With the protection of witnesses
reporting, especially in the provision of the rights which are considered bias used in the
criminal justice process as a form of appreciation for the contribution of the witnesses
themselves in the process it will cause nerve in the community to report alleged
corruption.
