SEMARANG - Semarang Police Station in Central Java arrested 10 students of SMK Pelayaran Akpelni Semarang who were suspected of molesting their juniors.

The head of the Semarang Polrestabes, Kombes Irwan Anwar, said that the abuse of the victim with the initials KHM (17) occurred on December 28, 2021.

According to him, the 11th grader was abused by his seniors from grade 12 by being slapped. "From the confessions of the perpetrators, a total of 140 slaps were made to the victim," he said in Semarang, quoted from Antara, Wednesday, January 5.

The scene of the incident itself, he said, was at the boarding house of one of the senior students.

Meanwhile, from the statements of the perpetrators, the persecution started from the actions of KHM who allegedly hit one of the perpetrators' colleagues. The perpetrators who did not accept then called him, which followed the persecution.

For their actions, the perpetrators were further charged with Article 170 of the Criminal Code concerning persecution.

Although it has entered the realm of law, Anwar said there is still a chance the case will be resolved peacefully through mediation of both parties.
