Abstract

Guarantees and protection of human rights are the responsibility of the government, both in normal state situations and in emergencies such as the Covid-19 pandemic. In suppressing the spread of Covid-19 in prisons, a policy of granting assimilation is issued to prisoners who meet the requirements. Therefore, it is important to see whether the policy has consequences for the penal system in Indonesia and whether it is in line with the conception of human rights guaranteed in the Indonesia Constitution. The problem posed in this study is to what extent the assimilation policy during the Covid-19 pandemic reflects the guarantee and protection of human rights as a constitutional mandate of the Indonesia Constitution? The problem will be analyzed normatively using a statutory approach, a theoretical approach, and an analytical approach. The results of the study show that the consequences of the policy of granting assimilation during the Covid-19 pandemic are felt directly by inmates who meet the requirements for assimilation and indirectly felt by inmates who do not meet the requirements that have been set. Therefore, the provision of assimilation during the Covid-19 pandemic in the conception of guarantees and protection of human rights is a policy of limited human rights protection.
