Indonesia as a legal state, has not yet formed its own Criminal Code. This means, the Criminal Code which was formed by the legislators from the Netherlands, is still the Criminal Code used by the Indonesian Nation. The Criminal Code during the Dutch colonial period and in the early days of Indonesia’s independence, was called the Wetboek van Strafrecht voor Nederlandsch Indie, which was established on 15 October 1915 and entered into force on 1 January 1918. The Criminal Code entered into force on the islands of Java and Madura, on February 26, 1946. As for other regions, the Criminal Code entered into force on September 29, 1958. Therefore, the Criminal Code applies nationally in Indonesia since September 29, 1958. The origin of the naming of the Indonesian Criminal Code which was applied in Indonesia came from the Organizing Committee of the Law in the Ministry of Justice in the Japanese era.
