Abstrak

Artikel ini menganalisis definisi dan konsep keadilan restoratif, serta membandingkannya dengan keadilan retributif. Merujuk prinsip Basic Principles on the Use of Restorative Justice Programmes in Criminal Matters, artikel ini menganalisis kaedah keadilan restoratif yang melindungi hak pesalah dan hak mangsa jenayah, serta melihat kedudukan Akta Kanun Tatacara Jenayah 2012 sama ada melindungi hak pesalah dan hak mangsa jenayah atau tidak seperti pendekatan keadilan restoratif. Hasil kajian mendapati walaupun Malaysia tidak melaksanakan keadilan restoratif, namun terdapat elemen keadilan restoratif dalam akta tersebut yang menjaga hak pesalah dan hak mangsa. Prinsip keadilan restoratif yang digariskan oleh PBB boleh dijadikan rujukan oleh Malaysia sekiranya ingin melaksanakan keadilan restoratif bagi menambah baik sistem keadilan jenayah sedia ada.

Abstract

This study analyses the definition and the concept of restorative justice, and how restorative justice is different from retributive justice. Referring to the principles provided by the United Nations known as the ‘Basic Principles on the use of Restorative Justice Programmes in Criminal Matters’, this study analyses how restorative justice protects and balances the rights of offenders and the victims. This study was also conducted to examine the legal position in Malaysia, especially under the Criminal Procedure Code Act 2012 on restorative justice. This study also determines whether the law under the Malaysian Criminal Procedure Code Act is sufficient to protect and to balance the rights of offenders and the victims, as it is in restorative justice. The principles of restorative justice provided by the United Nations can be used as reference and as a benchmark for Malaysia to implement restorative justice in the criminal justice system.

Keywords: restorative justice, rights of the accused, rights of victims \
