JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of the National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM) Amiruddin Al-Rahab said that the government needs to increase its seriousness in handling the restoration of the rights of victims from perpetrators of human rights violations.
"In the future, it is necessary to jointly strive for a more effective step to provide services or provide support to victims or our relatives who are victims," said Amiruddin when delivering directions in a public discussion welcoming Human Rights Day 2021, entitled "Reflections on 21 Years of the Law on the Human Rights Court. ” which was broadcast live on the Komnas HAM RI Public Relations YouTube channel, and monitored from Jakarta, Monday, December 6.
He explained that currently the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) has provided social, psychological, and health assistance. However, in daily reality, the assistance is not optimal for the victims.
According to Amiruddin, the head of the LPSK when talking to Komnas HAM said that the provision of assistance to victims was less than optimal due to an unsupported budget.
"There is a situation where on paper something wants to be made, but when it is implemented it is not supported by other instruments," he said. Thus, he hopes that in the future, victims can get maximum assistance, at least related to assistance in the form of health and medical services. economic aid. Both types of assistance aim to prioritize victims' recovery from trauma.
"Of course not everything can get better again, but at least that step must be made," said Amiruddin.
On the same occasion, he also reminded that victims of human rights violations are not fictitious. If all stakeholders are committed to realizing justice as the goal from the beginning of the reformation, then inevitably they must take clearer steps so that human rights justice can be upheld.
