Abstract
Indonesia has implemented the principles and characteristic of restorative justice in customary justice. Almost all part of the territory of Indonesia, every ethnic group are accustomed to resolving their problem and conflicts by using traditional courts, as an alternative to state courts. One of the reasons for the need to reposition the role of customary courts in Indonesia is that the principles of fast and low-cost courts have not been serialized, and that criminal law conducted by the nation is still Perpetrators-oriented. Due to the inherent weakness of the State Courts, some people have begun to reconsider the role of Customary court as another place to obtain justice, especially for the people who are unable to access the State Courts. This study focuses on the relation of the consept of restorative justice in customary justice which is used in several criminal case settlements in Indonesia, especially in Rejang Community in Central Bengkulu Regency, Bengkulu Province. The method used in this study is a Socio-legal Research. From this method, it will be found the relationship between customary justice and restorative justice approaches, starting from the customary justice mechanism at the reporting stage, summons stage, customary trial stage, decision making and/or implementation of the decision of Customary Court.
