Abstract

After the formation of Law Number 5 of 2018 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Terrorism, it involved collaboration with several other institutions, such as the National Counterterrorism Agency (BNPT) as the leading sector in eradicating criminal acts of terrorism, the National Army (TNI), the Indonesian National Police (POLRI). ) and the State Intelligence Agency (BIN). Aiming at creating a safe and peaceful country, this law is expected to be able to deal with criminal acts of terrorism. However, in reality this law has not been fully implemented optimally in dealing with criminal acts of terrorism in Indonesia. The formulation of the problem in this research is what is the position of BNPT as a leading sector based on Law Number 5 of 2018 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Terrorism? The method used in this legal research is normative legal research, namely collecting data using secondary data through library research, namely reading from applicable legislation, literature books and documents related to the issues to be discussed. Data processing is based on library data obtained and then analyzed qualitatively. The results of this research are BNPT's position as a leading sector based on Law no. 5 of 2018 has not been optimal in implementing institutional prevention and control efforts to eradicate criminal acts of terrorism. This is because the coordination function between related institutions is currently considered to still be sectoral in handling and eradicating criminal acts of terrorism
