Abstract

This study aims to determine and analyze law enforcement efforts against internet pornography in Indonesia. The research involved the Yogyakarta Special Police, especially the Special Criminal Investigation Directorate; the State Attorney of Sleman, especially the General Crime Section; andthe Sleman District Court, especially the Criminal Registry. The data for this study were collectedthrough literature study, interviews and documentation. The data were analyzed by qualitative and quantitative analysis. The results showed that Law Number 44 Year 2008 regarding Pornography has been implemented fairly well. The implementation of the law starts from the stage of reportingandis followed by police investigation. However, the stage of reporting/complaint is likely to remain passive. Also, the stage of prosecuting criminal acts of pornography has been well implemented, by applying alternative charges to reduce the potential for mistakes in the application of the law during the hearing. In addition, the stage of trial of pornography related crimes has been done well, but there are still some constraints in getting experts.
