The theories that form the basis of forgiveness will lead to different views. In connection with sources of clemency (Positive Criminal Law) and forgiveness (Islamic Criminal Law) have differences. Where clemency is the prerogative of the president as the temporary head of state, forgiveness can only be given by the heirs of the victim as the party who lost the victim. This study aims to find out where the justice is if the granting of pardon/ apology is given by the president with only consideration from the Supreme Court.
