This research aims to determine the role of the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) in the Indonesian criminal justice system. Using normative legal research methods, this research uses a statutory and conceptual approach, with qualitative analysis. These findings reveal challenges in implementing LPSK, including legal ambiguity, structural obstacles, and cultural skepticism.
