JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) Antonius PS Wibowo asked victims of sexual violence to dare to speak up, especially to victims involved in cases of sexual violence in Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta.

"LPSK is ready to provide protection to victims. Because the protection is intended so that victims have the courage to speak up and the legal process can run," said Antonius in a statement received in Jakarta, Antara, Monday, October 25.

The victims in question are 2 women in Gunung Kidul who are victims of cases of sexual violence with the alleged perpetrators who are state civil servants (ASN) and are Koran teachers.

G, the perpetrator, is suspected of having sexual intercourse and obscenity against two women. The 42-year-old man's modus operandi is to look into problems or problems and understand that the victim is having problems.

The perpetrator told the victim that there was witchcraft. G can treat them and help solve the problem.

According to Antonius, LPSK has made proactive efforts by establishing communication with the victim's legal counsel. In this communication, it was suggested by LPSK's legal advisor to apply for protection for victims to LPSK.

The legal process of this case has entered the investigation stage and the perpetrators have been detained and charged with Articles 286 and 289 of the Criminal Code.

In addition to communicating with the victim's legal counsel, LPSK has visited the Gunung Kidul Resort Police and advised investigators to process restitution for the victim.

"After communicating with the LPSK team, the victim's legal advisor said he would provide an answer mid-week," said Antonius.

Antonius said that his party appreciated the Gunung Kidul Police investigators who adjusted the time of the examination of the victim. This was done because one of the victims was an employee and had to ask for permission to leave work several times for BAP purposes.

"We also support the attitude of the victim's legal counsel so that they dare to reveal this case and the legal process can run," said Antonius.

Antonius appealed to those who were victims of sexual violence by perpetrator G to dare to report to the police because there were allegations that there were other victims.

During the pandemic period January-September 2021, the number of LPSK protected from criminal acts of sexual violence in Yogyakarta increased sharply. In the same period in 2020, there were 13 protected cases of sexual violence in the DI Yogyakarta area.

Meanwhile, in 2021, the number swells to 31 protected. Meanwhile, nationally, the number protected by LPSK from cases of sexual violence is 414 people.
