Abstract
This study examines the inconsistency of the application of Article 127 of Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics in Indonesia. Narcotics crimes, especially those involving dealers and abusers, have become a serious problem in society. Although the law gives judges the power to order rehabilitation for abusers, many cases end in prison sentences. This study uses normative juridical methods with legal and conceptual approaches, as well as qualitative analysis of secondary data. A study of two court decisions, namely the Medan District Court Decision Number 392/Pid.Sus/2021/PN Mdn and the Lubuk Pakam District Court Decision Number 1344/Pid.Sus/2019/PN Lbp, shows inconsistencies in the application of the law. One decision ordered rehabilitation, while the other decided to imprison. The results of this study emphasize the need for fair and consistent law enforcement so that legal goals, namely justice, certainty, and usefulness, can be achieved. The implementation of rehabilitation must be strengthened to be more in line with existing regulations.
