Abstract

This research is related to the settlement of criminal acts of persecution through a peace prayer
procession in Ketaping Jaya Village, Inuman District, Kuantan Singingi Regency. Settlement of problems
between perpetrators and victims of criminal acts of persecution is not only resolved in the criminal
justice system as a formal settlement, but in the community the settlement through customary law, namely
the peace prayer procession, can be a solution or way of resolving criminal acts of persecution. Therefore
it is necessary to study, first, the process of resolving the crime of persecution through a peace prayer
procession, as well as the impact of this settlement on the level of crime in Ketaping Jaya Village, Inuman
District, Kuantan Singingi Regency, secondly the influence of the mechanism for solving the crime of
persecution through the peace prayer process on recidivists in reducing/preventing criminal acts of
persecution.
This research is a sociological law research, because it is based on field research, namely by
collecting data from observation, interviews, and literature studies that have to do with problems using
qualitative data analysis, producing descriptive data, and concluded with a deductive thinking method.
From the results of the study, it was concluded that, first, the settlement of the crime of
persecution through a peace prayer procession in Ketaping Jaya Village, Inuman District was effective,
because the settlement had a positive impact on reducing crime rates in Ketaping Jaya Village. However,
there are still weaknesses, namely the settlement process takes quite a long time because the parties
involved, especially the ninik mamak of both parties, can delay the predetermined settlement time for
personal reasons and unilaterally. Second, the completion of the crime of persecution through the peace
prayer procession greatly influences the recidivist in reducing or preventing the crime of persecution. In
addition, this settlement also affected the behavior of the perpetrators and the surrounding community,
which became better than before due to fear of sanctions, be it fines or social sanctions.
