Aksi Bejat Perkosa Anak Di Ambon, Pelaku Divonis Pengadilan 19 Tahun Prison

AMBON - The Ambon District Court (PN) judges sentenced Jefry Tuhalauruw alias Stevi, a defendant in a criminal case of forced assault and rape to continue for 19 years in prison.

"Declaring that the defendant is legally and convincingly proven guilty of violating Article 81 paragraph (3) of the Republic of Indonesia Law number 23 of 2002 concerning child protection in conjunction with Article 64 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code," said the chairman of the panel of judges at the local District Court, Helmin Somaly and accompanied by two member judges quoted by ANTARA, Monday, March 6.

There are also things that incriminate the defendant being sentenced to prison because his actions that took place in his room were accompanied by threats so as not to be notified to other people, and the victim felt ashamed and traumatized.

Meanwhile, the mitigating factor is that the defendant has never been convicted.

The verdict of the panel of judges is still lighter than the demands of the Ambon Public Prosecutor's Office, Beatrix Novi Temar, for 20 years in prison.

On this decision, the defendant through his legal advisor Robert Lesnussa appealed to the Ambon High Court.

Initially the defendant divorced his wife and returned to Sidoarjo with the victim who was then four years old, then the victim was returned to Ambon to live with the defendant when he was nine years old.

Then the depraved act carried out by the defendant was first in 2020 when the victim was ten years old.
