  • 1. Master of law, Faculty of Law, Diponegoro University, Indonesia

Description

The failure of a thorough investigation or investigation to catch the mastermind behind a criminal act of murder which ends in a government order to commit murder which is carried out under the law against the perpetrator is the definition of Extrajudicial Killing. One of the countries that practices Extrajudicial Killing is the Philippines. In an effort to eradicate drug trafficking in the country, this action was carried out under the leadership of Rodrigo. In studying this problem the author uses normative legal research methods or statutory approaches. The result of this research is that the Extrajudicial Killing Act can be indicated as a government policy that attacks certain civilians, this can be seen from how President Duterte constantly voices or orders to execute outside the court the perpetrators of drug dealers. This Extrajudicial Killing action can also be referred to as a crime against humanity because the action was carried out by the authorities in a systematic and planned manner. If this is implemented in Indonesia, it will conflict with the principle of due process of law.
