EUTHANASIA IN INDONESIA CRIMINAL LAW AND HEALTH LAW

The problem of euthanasia is part of the actions of a doctor who is treating his patient or asking for his help so that someone's illness can be cured. In terms of the law, there are no new and complete regulations regarding euthanasia, but because the euthanasia issue concerns the safety of the human soul, a legal basis must be sought. This study aims to find out about Euthanasia regulated in Indonesian Criminal Law and Health Law. For this reason, only Article 344 of the Criminal Code is used as a legal basis because it is considered close. The method used is a normative juridical method with a statutory approach. The results of the study show that in principle not everyone agrees with euthanasia, and the same goes for doctors. Some community groups have a starting point on the basis of religion, so everything is God's will. The arguments put forward by the doctors are in accordance with the Indonesian medical code of ethics which also reflects the attitudes or views of doctors in Indonesia regarding euthanasia.
