JAKARTA - Commissioner of the Central Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (KPI) Nuning Rodiyah ensured that MS, an employee who claimed to have been sexually harassed and bullied or bullied by his co-workers, was safe from threats from any party, including internal parties.

In addition, her party has also evaluated the personnel system so that monitoring of employees is carried out optimally.

"We have confirmed that (MS's security from internal threats, ed). We have evaluated the personnel system, we evaluated the monitoring system for employee performance and also the work system in KPI", said Nuning when contacted by VOI quoted Saturday, September 4.

She said that currently, her party is still providing assistance in the legal aspect even though MS has been accompanied by a legal representative.

"KPI as the institution where MS works, we still provide space to provide legal assistance in this case consulting and so on. Because when it comes to legal counsel, everything is already in MS's attorney", said Nuning.

Furthermore, the Central KPI will also provide psychological assistance to its employees. Moreover, said Nuning, MS admitted to having experienced severe trauma which resulted in his physical health.

"And KPI is very open if asked for information by the authorities to immediately obtain information and clarification on the matter", she said.

As previously reported, MS said he was a victim of sexual harassment and bullying by seven of his more senior colleagues.

One of the sexual harassment he experienced was in 2015, when the perpetrators violently grabbed his head, hands, feet, stripped him naked, tied him up, and sexually assaulted him.

Related to this case, the Criminal Investigation Police also intervened to investigate this matter. In fact, a team of investigators has been deployed.

However, the Director of General Crimes at the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police, Brigadier General Andi Rian, has not been able to comment much on the matter. He emphasized that the team that was deployed would seek information and instructions first.

In addition, MS has also reported this case to the Central Jakarta Metro Police on Wednesday, September 1.

Not only that, but the National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM) also intervened to investigate the alleged violations in the alleged sexual harassment and bullying. In fact, next week, the agency plans to send a letter to the Central KPI and the police asking for information.
