The East Jakarta Police continued the legal process of the alleged rape case committed by GN (40) against his daughter, B (15). Thursday, September 7, the victim accompanied by his attorney visited the East Jakarta Police, Jatinegara, East Jakarta, to complete the investigation file.

"The news is that today (the case) has been fingerprinted. So, we want to complete today's fingerprint report so that the perpetrators are immediately detained as in the Child Protection Law. The minimum sentence is five years, a maximum of 15 years that should have been detained," said the victim's attorney, Muhammad Ari Pratomo to reporters at the East Jakarta Metro Police, Thursday, September 7.

Ari hopes that investigators from the Women and Children Protection Unit (PPA) of the Central Jakarta Metro Police will immediately arrest GN.

"It's been five months since the distance has been, until now the perpetrator has not been arrested," he said.

Ari also said that the reason PPA investigators had not detained the perpetrator was because they were waiting for the results of the post-mortem, psychological examination, and the investigation process.

"If this drags on, of course, public trust in the police can be reduced. Moreover, this is clear from the explanation of the child. All witnesses have been examined, the post-mortem has been released. Psychological results have been completed. This means that this is actually complete. It can go up (sidik) immediately if the news of today's fingerprint event is complete," he said.

GN is the stepfather of the victim. He raped his daughter with the initials B many times. The rape was carried out by GN since B was still in elementary school (SD). And now B has become a junior high school (SMP) student. It has been more than a year B raped her father.

The case was only revealed after the victim reported the incident that happened to her biological father, AA (45).

B contacted AA to ask to be picked up because he no longer wanted to live with his biological mother and stepfather. After being picked up and arriving home, B also told about his stepfather's lecherous actions.

From the victim B's confession, his stepfather had molested him from grade 6 elementary school or from the age of 12 years until he was in grade 3 junior high school.

Then, AA, the victim's biological father reported the perpetrator GN to the East Jakarta Metro Police Headquarters with LP Number B/1285/V/2023/SPKT/RES.JAKTIM/PMJ. dated May 16, 2023.

However, AA as his biological father complained about the slow action of the East Jakarta Police in handling the case that befell Bunga. The reason is, starting from the report to the East Jakarta Police for up to approximately 5 months, the perpetrator of the GN, who is none other than the victim's stepfather, has not also been detained.
