The purpose of this research is to analyze the weaknesses of criminal offenses against narcotics users and victims of narcotics abuse and how to reconstruct the regulation based on the value of justice. The method used in this study uses a juridical approach with a constructivist paradigm. The results of the research show that the current weaknesses in criminal offenses against narcotics users and victims of narcotics abuse, due to the provisions regarding ownership and control as regulated in Article 112, can also be applied to those who are classified as abusers as regulated in Article 127 of Law no. 35/2009 concerning Narcotics. Therefore, the Reconstruction of criminal offense regulations against narcotics users and victims of narcotics abuse based on the value of justice can be done namely by changing the substance of Articles `103, 112, and Article 127 of the Narcotics Law, where in Article 103, the phrase "can" is replaced with the word "obliged". Then, Changing Article 127 paragraph (1), by adding the sentence "Every abuser with the intention of using it himself". Meanwhile, there must be an additional clause regarding the criteria for the large number of narcotics in Article 112 must in paragraph (3) as an addition to Article 112 of Law no. 35/2009 concerning Narcotics to further differentiates the differences of both.

Termination of prosecution based on restorative justice by the public prosecutor, which in practice is very beneficial for the wider community, especially for victims and perpetrators of crimes.

The method used in this study uses a normative juridical approach with a constructivist paradigm. The results of the research and discussion show that the weaknesses of the law lie in the Criminal liability in the provisions of Law no. 10/1998 concerning Banking is not in line or there is no legal synchronization with the provisions of Law no. 8/2010 concerning TPPU, specifically the provisions of Article 6 paragraph (2) of Law no. 8/2010 concerning ML, which stipulates that a Bank in its position as a corporation can also be held criminally responsible. Provisions of Law no. 10/1998 concerning Banking, although it recognizes corporations as subjects of criminal law, the criminal responsibility system implemented still adheres to the individual criminal responsibility model, which only imposes accountability on controlling personnel. Therefore, the legal Reconstruction of criminal responsibility of Bank employees who participated in committing money laundering crimes based on the value of justice can be done by not only asking for and imposing criminal responsibility on controlling personnel (in this case the Board of Commissioners, Directors, and Bank Employees) but also being able to hold accountability for Banks as corporations implement an aggregation model corporate criminal liability system.

Anaemia is a public health problem that affect both the rich and poor, and it possess a serious challenge to the health care profession, consequently this research is therefore aim at investigating the anti - anaemic potentials of Tigernut (C. esculentus) extract administered to albino wistar rats exposed to Phenylhydrazine induced toxicity. Forty (40) male albino Wistar rats weighing between 180- 250g were used for this study. They were randomly divided into four (4) groups of ten (10) rats each. Control group received normal feed and drinking water. Extract group received 600mg/kg bw of aqueous extract of Tigernut orally, PHZ group received PHZ induction and PHZ + Extract group received PHZ induction + 600mg/kg bw of aqueous extract of Tigernut. The feeding regimens lasted for 4 weeks, after which blood samples were collected via cardiac puncture for estimation of different parameters. Results showed that ingestion of aqueous extract of C. esculentus was able to reverse the significant decrease in RBC (p<0.01), HB (p<0.001), PCV (p<0.001) and Fe+ (p<0.01) values occasion by PHZ induction, back to appreciable level. In conclusion ingestion of C. esculentus extract is capable of reversing the derogatory effect imposed on hemopoietic processes following PHZ induction. Since C. esculentus is cheap and readily available it can therefore be recommended for the management of anaemic condition pending the availability of a viable health facility.
