With the development of regulations regarding criminal law which contain new and increasingly progressive provisions, cover-up punishment still fills a place in the current list of principal crimes. In fact, the Draft Criminal Code which is currently being discussed as the Priority National Legislation Program (Prolegnas) still contains the existence of a cover-up crime as a form of principal crime. Coverage punishment, if it is related to the purpose of punishment according to the new Criminal Code Concept, it appears that the most prominent purpose of covert punishment is the protection of society.
