JAKARTA - National Commission on Violence against Women (Komnas Perempuan) is devastated by the death of a Mojokerto student with the initials NWR. NWR committed suicide at her father's grave due to depression because she was suspected of having experienced unpleasant treatment from her boyfriend, a police officer.

Komnas Perempuan Commissioner Siti Aminah Tardi said that Novia Widyasari, a woman who committed suicide beside her father's grave because she was suspected of being a victim of sexual harassment by police officers, had reported the case to her office.

In the communication, said Siti, the victim recounted the violence experienced. In addition to communication, the victim also sent a letter of complaint to Komnas Perempuan asking for counseling assistance.
