Yurisdiksi Universal: Praktik, Prinsip Dan Realitas

Abstract

Application   of Universal Jurisdiction  basically is an effort to avoid  impunity. Nevertheless   in the reality its application often has been connected  with state sovereignty.  Recently  we heard a strong reaction from Indonesian  Government   about  the indictment of General  Wiranto  and  seven other military  officers  and  also Abilio Soares  by Special  Panel for Serious  Crime  Unit in Dili Court  ,    Timar  Leste. This article explains  several important  aspects of human  rights cases in order to be applicable  with universal  jurisdiction,  such as: the type of crimes  and  the requirements based on international    law.
