Abstract

In practice indemnity for victims of criminal acts of terrorism tend to be given in the form of compensation. As a result, the perpetrators of criminal acts of terrorism often doesn’t have responsibility to compensate the victims. Based on this, it is necessary to study the use of restitution for victims of criminal acts of terrorism. The methodology used is qualitative with a social legal research approach. The results show that in its implementation victims of terrorism often do not apply for restitution. There are several factors that make restitution difficult to implement. Therefore, it have to be based on victim’s interest, whether the victim will apply for both restitution and compensation, or directly submit compensation. Even if the victim proposes restitution, compensation should still be a state obligation that must be given to the victim.
