<![CDATA[Restitution arrangements are still lacking in terms of fulfilling the rights of victims of criminal acts. It is necessary to study the application for the right of restitution given to children as victims of criminal acts of violence and the legal consequences of restitution not being paid by the perpetrators. This study uses a type of normative research. The collection of legal materials was carried out using literature study techniques and analyzed using descriptive analysis. Government Regulation Number 43 of 2017 does not regulate coercion if the perpetrator is unable to carry out restitution, so there is no guarantee that restitution can be paid to a child as a victim of a crime.

The state then provides victim compensation.]]>
