The problem in this thesis is the regulation of the crime of murder with mutilation in Indonesia, what are the factors causing the crime of murder with mutilation in the view of criminology, how is the criminal policy against the crime of murder with mutilation against a wife. Based on the problems presented, it is known that the regulation of the crime of murder with mutilation in Indonesia does not yet have a law or regulation that specifically regulates the crime of mutilation. The Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP) does not have any specific provisions on the crime of mutilation, but only on the crime of murder in general as regulated in Article 338 of the Criminal Code and Article 340 of the Criminal Code.
