- Abstract
Indonesia has explored extradition agreements with various countries around the world, such as Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Thailand, Australia, Hong Kong, Korea, China, India. Even though Indonesia has had extradition treaties with various countries, if the agreement is not ratified into the provisions of laws and regulations, the provisions cannot be applied. Extradition treaties that are not ratified are an obstacle for law enforcers in extradating perpetrators of criminal acts of corruption in other countries. The research method used in this paper is a normative legal research method. There are several factors that become obstacles in implementing extradition in which countries adhere to the Anglo-American legal system or known as the Common Law System. In this system the Indonesian government’s request for extradition is entirely dependent on the decision of the court of the country concerned. In this context, the extradition treaty can actually be implemented without ratification, however, the governments of other countries may set aside the principle of reciprocity because it is greatly influenced by the policies of each requested country. For law enforcers, the ratification of the extradition treaty is one solution to extradite criminals. Some of the perpetrators of criminal acts are allegedly deliberately fleeing to countries that do not have an extradition treaty to avoid legal entanglement. Nevertheless, Indonesia seeks to extradite criminals to account for their actions.
