Yogyakarta City Police arrested the perpetrators of pornography in front of two visitors in the South Square area, Yogyakarta City.

Head of Women and Children Protection (PPA) of the Yogyakarta Police Satreskrim Ipda Apri Sawitri said the suspect with the initials AS (62) who worked as a toilet guard in the Yogyakarta South Square area was arrested on Tuesday (21/3).

"The suspect showed his genitals in public places to victims AW (29) and NW (39)," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, May 10.

Apri explained that the immoral case that occurred on March 20, 2023 at around 20.40 WIB began when the two victims with the initials AW (29), a resident of Sewon, Bantul and NW (39) sub-districts, residents of Kraton District, Yogyakarta City, were about to go to public toilets in the South Square area.

After finishing using toilet facilities, the two victims who did not know each other went hand in hand to pay levies to the suspect.

"Then the victim AW was shocked because he saw the suspect sitting upright on the chair and his hands were on the table, then his legs opened and showed his genitals," he said.

Shocked by the incident, both of them then withdrew.

Meanwhile, NW, who was holding a smartphone at that time, admitted that he had accidentally recorded the immoral act.

"Because of his desire for video calls, but at that time his cellphone was stuck for an accidental video, the NW victim recorded that the suspect was in the same position as the victim AW saw," he said.

The two victims took the initiative to report the incident to the Kraton Police, then followed up by officers by visiting the TKP and interrogateing the perpetrators.

"The Satreskrim picket officers and the Kraton Police went to the TKP and then secured the suspect and were taken to the Yogyakarta Police," he said.

Based on the suspect's confession, according to Apri, the action was carried out spontaneously for his sexual satisfaction.

"According to the perpetrator's confession that every time there are female visitors, he does that. However, if the visitors are male, the shirt will be closed," said Apri.

The US argued that this is the first time it has committed immorality and has no intention of showing off its genitals.

"Just that, (previously) never. Yes, I may have forgotten that, at that time, I forgot to forget accidentally or what," said AS.

The suspect in the pornographic case is subject to a crime in accordance with Article 36 of Law Number 44 of 2008 concerning Pornography and Article 281 of the Criminal Code.
