The Chancellor of Pancasila University (UP) with the initials ETH denied the alleged sexual harassment of two of his employees in his office. This was conveyed through his attorney, Raden Nanda Setiawan. "We make sure that the “ NEWS is based on incorrect reports and the reported incident never happened," Nanda said in a written statement, Sunday, February 25. He considered that the case that dragged his client must be based on presumption of innocence. Moreover, the alleged abuse occurred 1 year ago. “ Too odd if only reported at this time in the process of selecting a new rector,” he said. However, Nanda still respects the legal process. Currently, his party is following the process of the case report. "We are currently following the process of the report. We entrust the police to process it professionally,” close it. Previously, it was reported that the Chancellor of Pancasila University with the initials ETH was reported by his employees RZ and DF on suspicion of sexual harassment. The victim's initials RZ made a report to Polda Metro Jaya. Registered report with number LP/B/193/I/2024/SPKT/POLDA METRO JAYA. Meanwhile, the victim's initials DF made a report to the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police. The report was recorded with the number LP/B/36/I/2024/SPKT/BARESKRIM POLRI. The victim's attorney, Amanda Manthovani, said that there were two victims of sexual harassment by the rector of Pancasila University, namely RZ, who at that time served as Head of Public Relations and Ventura of Pancasila University and DF, who was an honorary employee. Amanda explained the chronology of the alleged sexual harassment of RZ. According to the victim, at that time he received a report from the secretary of the chancellor that he had to go to the chancellor. "Well, at 13.00 WIB he faced the rector, he knocked on him. When he opened the door the rector was sitting in his rector's job seat. Across from the rector's chair or desk, many of the chairs were a bit far away from his position," said Amanda when contacted by reporters, Sunday, February 25. At that time the victim looked for a place in a rather long chair and took a rather far sitting position. At that time, the chancellor gave orders regarding work issues. "He wrote, he brought a book. Suddenly the rector suddenly sat one seat with him (the victim), his position approached," he said. Then not long after, when the victim was sitting while recording suddenly the victim's cheek was kissed by the chancellor. At that time the victim was immediately shocked and scared. "Well, he immediately said, 'I immediately stood up, ma'am, I was shocked and I really wanted him, wanted me to go berserk, wanted to hit him, but I was still conscious and I was immediately scared'. He immediately rushed out," said Amanda. Not only that, when the victim wanted to hurry out and when the rector came out in good and gentle language, he asked the victim for help to see whether the rector's eyes were red or not. Then the victim said the rector's eye was not red. However, the chancellor asked to shed eye medicine before leaving the room. "He took the drops. He headed for his bag, his rector's bag was taken, 'drop me first, then come out' that's the point. So the rector's position sat because he had been kissed earlier, he didn't dare to come near," he added. So that at that time, the chancellor was in a sitting position and the victim was standing next to the right of the chancellor with a rather long distance, his body bending over with eye drugs. " “ however, suddenly his right hand profile (rector) squeezed his breasts. That's how it is. Like that, according to the victim's statement that's the story," said Amanda.

Meanwhile, another victim DF was abused similar to RZ. Even DF suffered severe trauma due to the incident he experienced. "Almost the same thing happened, but DF's face was kissed, he continued to smell it," he said.
