JAKARTA - Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights (Wamenkumham) Edward Omar Sharif Hiariej, said that only less than 300 cases of sexual violence had legal proceedings in court.
"Based on data from Komnas HAM and KPAI and so on, there were cases of sexual violence against children and women, there were around 6,000 cases, while less than 300 cases reached the court, meaning less than 5 percent," said Edward at the DPR Complex, Jakarta, reported by Antara, Monday, March 28.
According to him, the data shows that there are errors in the current procedural law. "We, who have a legal background, (judging) mean something is wrong, there is something wrong with our procedural law," said Edward.
Therefore, the procedural law needs to be regulated in great detail in accordance with the new substance contained in the Problem Inventory List (DIM) of the Draft Law on the Crime of Sexual Violence (RUU TPKS).
"Indeed, there are many new substances in the matter of criminal provisions and the procedural law," he said.
The Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights is also confident that the TPKS Bill will not overlap with other regulations that are already in effect.
"This law will not overlap with other laws because when we make, discussing the DIM, we juxtapose it with existing laws, both the Law on Protection of Domestic Violence, then the Law on Child Protection, there is a draft of the Criminal Code Bill, including we are doing a match with the Law on the Human Rights Court," he said.
