Task Force Asks Student Victims Of Unram Lecturer Obscenity To Report Police

The Mataram University (Unram) Sexual Violence Prevention and Handling Task Force (NTB), asked female students who were victims of sexual harassment with the initials AW to report to the police.

Joko conveyed this after Unram's decision to impose strict sanctions on AW in the form of dismissal as an educator.

"So, with this case, we are still asking the victim (malasiswi) to report it to the police. This is what we are pushing," Head of the Unram Task Force for the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence (PPKS) Joko Jumadi in Mataram, NTB, Friday, June 21, was confiscated by Antara.

The sanction refers to the results of the investigation by the Unram PPKS Task Force which found evidence of the lecturer's obscene acts against three female students.

The dismissal sanction was categorized as severe by referring to the provisions of Article 14 of the Regulation of the Minister of Education, Culture, Research and Technology Number 30 of 2021 concerning the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence in Higher Education.

"So, the sanctions we apply are still administratively because the person concerned has the status of an educator at Unram," he said.

However, Joko, who is also an educator at the Faculty of Law, Unram, saw evidence that the criminal act in this case was strong enough that he had the opportunity to proceed legally.

"We from the task force want this process not only academic administration, there is also a legal process. However, it all goes back to the victims who make decisions, the key is there," he said.

The Unram PPKS Task Force handled this case based on reports from female students who were victims with three people. The report was received on May 30, 2024.

From the report, the Unram PPKS Task Force conducted an investigation by conducting a series of examinations and psychological recovery of victims.

The results of the investigation revealed that the victim who received indecent treatment from the lecturer was recorded as having occurred in 2010.

The lecturer did his actions by utilizing a meeting with a student in the thesis guidance process.
