REJANG LEBONG - The Education and Culture Service (Dikbud) of Rejang Lebong Regency, Bengkulu Province is preparing sanctions against individual school principal teachers who violate the rules.

This teacher is currently dealing with the police because of an embezzlement case. Most recently, as stated by Secretary of Education and Culture Rejang Lebong, Hanapi, a teacher was involved in a case of circulating indecent videos.

"Currently we are preparing punitive sanctions for the teacher and principal of the elementary school whose video recently went viral, who has committed a disgraceful act," he said when contacted in Rejang Lebong, as reported by Antara, Sunday, November 19.

He explained that the teacher and principal of one of the state elementary schools in the area involved in video call sex (VCS) was GP (54), a resident of Padang Ulak Tanding District, Rejang Lebong Regency.

The sanctions prepared by the Rejang Lebong Education and Culture Office include removal from the position of school principal or transfer to another school.

In handling the case by the police, GP had the status of a victim, because when carrying out VCS, GP was recorded by her boyfriend. The boyfriend, who claims to be a member of the National Police, is known via Facebook. GP's indecent video was then used by the boyfriend to blackmail her.

"Sanctions will still be given because what the principal and teacher did was immoral and inappropriate, especially as a principal and teacher," he stressed.

To determine what sanctions should be given, his party will go to the school concerned to see the conditions in the field.

He appealed to the teaching staff in Rejang Lebong Regency to set an example and be role models in society, and avoid actions that could tarnish their good name as teachers.

Previously, the circulation of the VCS recording of this individual school principal and teacher shocked the Rejang Lebong community. Her VCS recording was spread by her online girlfriend to blackmail GP.

In that incident, the GP, who had the status of a widow, was asked for IDR 5 million and was obliged to do so. However, the second amount of IDR 500 thousand was not met, so her online boyfriend spread a recording of her doing VCS.
