SEMARANG - Chairman of the Indonesian Child Protection Agency (LPAI) Seto Mulyadi or familiarly called Kak Seto asked the Semarang District Court to impose the maximum sentence on the father who was tried for molesting his stepdaughter.
"We ask that the perpetrators be given the maximum sanction. Hopefully, the panel of judges will pay attention," said Kak Seto after an audience with the chairman of the Semarang District Court in Semarang, Central Java, as reported by Antara, Tuesday, May 31.
Kak Seto hopes that this will have a deterrent effect and will not happen again.
According to him, the Semarang District Court is very aware of the importance of child protection. As a result, sexual crimes must receive serious attention.
In addition to focusing on the crime against the perpetrators, he said, attention to children who are victims must also be seriously addressed.
"Continuous treatment. Thus the impact experienced by victims can be reduced," he said.

However, he continued, the sentencing of a defendant is highly dependent on the facts of the trial. The Semarang District Court tried RD, a father suspected of molesting his stepdaughter.
