Abstract

Efforts to enforce human rights in Indonesia are carried out by establishing the National Commission on Human Rights (NHCR) as an independent state institution with functions and authorities, one of which is to monitor alleged human rights violations. For example, an event that is suspected of violating human rights is the loss of life outside the provisions of the law, where the NHRC plays a role in monitoring and providing recommendations based on the results of the investigation that has been carried out to the relevant parties. This study aims to find out the extent of the role of the NHRC in the enforcement of alleged human rights violations, and the obstacles faced in the enforcement of human rights. This research method is normative legal research with a legislative approach and a case approach. The results of the study show that the role of the NHRC in enforcing human rights by carrying out the function of monitoring alleged human rights violations is carried out through investigations, providing recommendations for investigation results, and providing information in the judicial process. The obstacles faced by the NHRC in the enforcement of human rights, namely the constraints of legal substance that have not adequately regulated the authority of the NHRC, one of which is related to the follow-up of the recommendations given, the constraints of the legal structure in handling the follow-up of alleged human rights violations by other related agencies, and the legal cultural constraints of the state administration apparatus related to human rights in the implementation of their duties and authority.
