JAKARTA - Throughout 2020 there have been cases of immorality against minors in Bengkulu. This was conveyed by the Director of General Criminal Investigation at Polda Bengkulu, Kombes Pol Teddy Suhendyawan.
"For those who are more dominant, cases of sexual intercourse or immorality, whether women or men, victims who are boys are also sad," Teddy said as quoted by Antara, Bengkulu, Thursday, July 23.
According to him, the high number of immoral cases that involved children as victims was because of the psychology of the children who were easily intervened by persuasion and threats.
However, of the 105 cases of immorality of minors, most of the victims were under threat from the perpetrator. He said a total of 105 cases were not only handled by the Bengkulu Regional Police for the Protection of Women and Children (PPA), but also by the PPA Unit at the Polres of the Bengkulu Regional Police.
In details, nine cases were handled by the Bengkulu Regional Police, 31 cases were handled by the Bengkulu Police, 16 cases for the Rejang Lebong Police, nine cases for the North Bengkulu Police, six cases for the South Bengkulu Police.
Then, five cases were handled by the Kepahiang Police, eight cases were handled by the Seluma Police, five cases for the Lebong Police, five for the Kaur Police, four for the Mukomuko Police and eight for the Central Bengkulu Police.
"So the most reports of immoral cases involving minors as victims are handled by the Bengkulu Police," he explained.
Teddy admitted that he was sad to see the high number of immoral cases involving minors as victims. According to him, this condition was alarming.
He urged parents to be more attentive to their children, especially in their daily interactions.
According to him, intense supervision would certainly be able to prevent children from engaging in immoral acts of minors.
"These children are the assets of the nation, what happens if they have the wrong relationship so that it will have an impact on the children themselves, so the role of the family is very important to provide advice on what good relationships are like," said Teddy.
