The Faculty of Law at Bhayangkara University Jakarta Raya assigned several senior law professors to engage in community service activities in Bekasi Regency.

Dr. Slamet Pribadi, SH.MH., the Dean of the Faculty of Law at Bhayangkara University Jakarta Raya, expressed his satisfaction with the community service activities conducted by several law professors.
According to Dr. Slamet Pribadi SH.MH., these community service activities are continuously being carried out. He hopes that in the future, his leadership at the Faculty of Law will intensify efforts to achieve Excellent accreditation.
During his presentation, Dr. Joko Sriwidodo, SH.MH.M.Kn., as the speaker, emphasized that the mediation of criminal cases must meet specific requirements, primarily material conditions.
“Among them are not causing public unrest or rejection, the existence of statements from the parties involved, not being a repeat offender, not involving terrorism, and not a severe type of violation,” said Dr. Joko Sriwidodo during his presentation to the attendees on Tuesday, May 16, 2023.
Furthermore, Dr. Joko Sriwidodo stated that the resolution of criminal mediation also requires fulfilling formal conditions. Firstly, there must be a letter of peace request from both parties (reporter and reported). Secondly, a statement of the peace agreement (conciliation deed). Thirdly, the offender must acknowledge their mistake and not object to compensation or do so voluntarily.
Fourthly, all criminal acts can undergo restorative justice for common crimes that do not result in human victims. And fifthly, the perpetrator must acknowledge that they will not repeat the offense, and forgiveness from the victim is involved.
Dr. Joko Sriwidodo, as part of the Community Service Team focusing on criminal law, clearly emphasized that criminal mediation, with a focus on local wisdom, has many benefits compared to the general application of the law.
