Abstract
The government provides criminal law policies to someone who wants to
be a whistleblower and a justice collaborator of corruption. The criminal law policy is
enforced in Law No. 31 of 2014 as a complement to the weaknesses of Law No. 13 of
2006 and several other regulations. Regarding the amount of government appreciation
given in the form of protection and appreciation, it is necessary to know how
important the role of a whistleblower and justice collaborator is in uncovering the
main criminal acts of corruption in assisting the criminal justice system in this
country. This paper was carried out at the Witness and Victim Protection Agency. The
data obtained are primary data and secondary data. Also, primary data collection
techniques are also carried out by interviewing the parties concerned which are then
analyzed descriptively. The data obtained is then processed and reviewed based on the
formulation of the problem that has been applied so that it is expected to obtain a clear
and concrete picture of the objects discussed qualitatively and subsequently presented
descriptively namely explaining, elaborating, and describing by the problems closely
related to this research. In giving testimony in general, the Justice Collaborator is
motivated by a reduction in the period of detention or from his heart. Indeed he
intends to repent. However, also in the testimony sometimes a Justice Collaborator is
disturbed or hindered by his fellow friends who commit a crime, and this is what
every country in the world needs to regulate so that the dismantling of a crime can run
optimally. In responding to Corruption cases, countries in the world have reacted with
various rules so that they can create a deterrent effect for the perpetrators of the crime,
as well as the rules regarding Whistleblowers and Justice Collaborators they have
included in their country's Law. However, in Indonesia, the rules regarding witnesses
of new perpetrators and reporters are regulated in the 2011 Supreme Court Circular.
