Problematika Batasan Usia Tindak Pidana Aborsi

Nitha Dini Safitri Juang

Abstract


Pregnancy outside of marriage is one of the factors contributing to the high number of abortion cases. Sometimes, abortion attempts fail, resulting in the birth of a living baby. It is not uncommon for these newborns to become victims of infanticide due to fear of being discovered as having given birth. This issue becomes particularly compelling when considering the condition of these children, especially infants, whose right to life is being taken away. A further discussion is needed on the age limit for abortion in relation to infanticide, as well as the fulfillment of the legal certainty principle regarding abortion age limits. The research method used is normative juridical with a statute approach and a conceptual approach. The research findings indicate ambiguity in the legal provisions regarding the age limit for abortion. Moreover, there is a need for clearer regulations concerning specific legal provisions related to abortion limits.
