JAKARTA - The perpetrators of sexual abuse of minors have been arrested by the Tebet Police. Two perpetrators, Arnold (75) and Jamaludin (45), are known to have preyed on seven girls aged 4-14 years.

According to the South Jakarta Police Chief, Kombes Azis Andriansyah, the perpetrator has been carrying out his actions for the past 5 months, with the mode of giving candy and threats.

"There are victims who are lured with sweets and also threats. Those who are still children are lured, invited to have snacks, given sweets, and so on. Meanwhile, the 14-year-old was given a slight threat," said Azis Andriansyah to reporters, Tuesday, November 16.

Azis explained that the two perpetrators carried out their actions on Jalan Pancoran Buntu, South Jakarta. Azis said that the perpetrators used violence to the victims in order to fulfill their desires.

Azis added that Arnold did the deed because he saw Jamaludin's action first committing sexual abuse to his victim in a shop.

"Arnold caught Jamaludin doing what he did in the shop. Instead of forbidding him, he was inspired and did what Jamaludin did in a different location, in his own house," said Azis.

Azis explained that the victims were in shock and would be given trauma healing so that their psychological condition would not be disturbed.

"We also check the psychological and mental health of the perpetrator so that we can find out if he has this habit. If so, we need to reveal more deeply and whether rehabilitation needs to be done so that when he finishes serving his sentence he doesn't do anything else," he said.

The case is handled by the South Jakarta Metro Police.
