The law in Indonesia is a mixture of the European legal system, religious law, and customary law. Most of the systems adopted, both civil and criminal are based on European law, especially from the Netherlands because of the historical aspects of Indonesia’s past which are colonies with the Dutch Indies (Nederlandsch-Indie). Indonesia also regulates various punishments and penalties for suspects.
The types of punishment are contained in article 10 of KUHP. This type of criminal penalization is distinguished between the principal and extra criminal penalties, in which additional penalties are only imposed if a criminal offense is imposed.
Everyone has the right to life, to sustain life, and to improve his / her standard of living as set forth in Article 28A of the 1945 Constitution (contained in the 1945 Constitution). However, those rights may be limited by legal instruments. Death sentences are imposed on certain criminal cases, one of which is narcotics as referred to in Law Number 35 Year 2009 on Narcotics (Narcotics Law).
While the procedure of executing the death penalty is usually dropped by a court in a general judicial or military court environment conducted by shot to death.
Prison penalty is a principal criminal charge that can be imposed for a lifetime or during a certain period of time. Prison sentences for a certain period of one day to twenty years in a row and in the period of their sentence are subject to liability. Prison law is imposed on people who commit a criminal offense.
However, in certain criminal acts there is a minimum limit, for example in the case that a person is found to have been proven to commit a criminal offense in violation of Article 2 of Law No.31 of 1999, the defendant is punished at least 4 years as a lower limit. It means a perpetrator who violates Article 2 of Law No.31 In 1999, a court shall not imprisonment for less than 4 years.

This confinement sentence has many similarities with imprisonment. In some cases (samenloop, residive, and imprisonment) the sentence can be imposed longer, i.e. 1 year 4 months (article 18 paragraph (2) of the Penal Code).

Some violations of punishment are considered inadequate with threats of penalties. Although the nature of this punishment is for the suspect, however, it is different from other penalties. It can not be executed and suffered by the person being punished. So, in fine penalties, it can not be eliminated the possibility, that the penalty is paid by a third party.
In contrast to other penalties, on fine, such penalties may be converted into brackets instead. The punishable can choose, pay the penalty or brackets instead. In law there is no maximum limit on the amount of the fine to be paid. There is a general minimum of 25 cents, then altered by law No.18 (Perpu) of 1960 (LN 1960 No. 52) to fifteen (15) times. The duration of bracket for penalty replacement is determined on a case-by-case basis by a judge’s verdict, a minimum of 1 day and a maximum of 6 months.
