Problems in the Temporary Release of Suspects during the Investigation

Abstract

This research aims to study the concept of human rights and the meaning of temporary release, to study the law regarding temporary release of the accused during the investigation stage, and to propose solutions to problems related to the temporary release of the accused during the investigation stage.

The research results found that there are issues regarding the temporary release of the accused in the stage of inquiry official as follows: the issue of ordering temporary release in the stage of inquiry official, and the issue of appealing the order not allowing temporary release in the stage of inquiry official.

The researcher therefore proposes solutions obtained from the research, which are as follows: there should be an amendment for the inquiry official who is the case handler to provide an opinion to the chief inquiry official (not the head of the police station) for consideration of the request for temporary release; and the law should be amended to allow the accused or a person with an interest in the accused to have the right to appeal the order denying temporary release.
