TINJAUAN YURIDIS PENERAPAN REMISI TERHADAP WARGA BINAAN DI LEMBAGA PEMASYARAKATAN KELAS IIB TELUK KUANTAN

Abstract

Remission, or the partial or full release from a sentence, is one of the rights of inmates regulated within the Indonesian correctional system. This research addresses the problem formulations of how remission is applied for inmates at the Class IIB Teluk Kuantan Correctional Institution and what inhibiting factors are faced in its application. This study aims to examine the application of remission for inmates at the Class IIB Teluk Kuantan Prison and the obstacles to its implementation. This study uses a sociological (empirical) method, a type of legal research that analyzes and studies the operation of law in society. The results indicate that the application of remission at the Class IIB Teluk Kuantan Prison already refers to applicable laws and regulations. However, there are obstacles in its implementation, such as internal factors like the suboptimal role of correctional guardians (wali pemasyarakatan) who serve as guidance officers and assessors, as well as systemic institutional problems like a shortage of civil servants (ASN) and overcapacity at the prison.)
