State Responsibility for Enforcing Extradition Laws Against the Culprit Corruption Crimes in the Dimension of International Law

Introduction: This article wants to explain the state's responsibilities in enforcing extradition law in the normative legal dimension. Basically, enforcement of extradition law requires a strong and binding legal basis between countries. Objective: Thus, the extradition treaty creates responsibility for the state in implementing legal provisions against suspected criminals. At the legislative level, implementing extradition law in Indonesia requires adjustments to statutory regulations, because each country has different legal systems. Theoretical Framework: Cases of corruption perpetrators in Indonesia who fled to Singapore, for example, seem slow to be handled by the state. Method: The method used in this research uses several approaches, including the case approach which is used to see the judge's considerations in his decision, as well as the statutory approach which is used to see the consistency of the rules with their application. Results and Discussion: In fact, an extradition agreement between Indonesia and Singapore has been agreed upon since 1974. Research Implications: However, the fact is that the two countries have not yet optimally implemented the contents of the agreed extradition legal agreement. Originality/Value: Normatively, international law emphasizes that states have the responsibility to implement extradition law.
