摘要

The purpose of this paper is to see the urgency of the extradition treaty between Indonesia and Singapore in terms of law enforcement of criminal acts of corruption. As is well known, there are quite a number of corruptors who fled to Singapore so that they were not ensnared by Indonesian law. Indonesian law enforcers have difficulty in arresting perpetrators of corruption due to the absence of an extradition treaty between Indonesia and Singapore. Meanwhile, on the other hand, Indonesia has ratified Law No. 1 of 1979 concerning Extradition. The research method used is a normative juridical method, with a library approach. The results of the extradition agreement between Indonesia and Singapore are very necessary to be followed up. Considering that there are quite a number of corruption actors who fled to Singapore and facilitated law enforcement in eradicating corruption. Suggestions offered to realize the extradition agreement are carried out in collaboration with the Indonesian police force with the Singapore Police (police to police).
