JAKARTA - Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights (Wamenkum HAM) Edward Omar Sharif Hiariej said the government included the issue of forced marriage and sexual slavery in the Draft Law (RUU) on the Crime of Sexual Violence (TPKS).
"From the DPR, there are five, and the government has added two more crimes, namely forced marriage and sexual slavery," said Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights, Edward Omar Sharif Hiariej, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, February 22.
The five proposals from the DPR that were included in the TPKS Bill are non-physical sexual harassment, physical sexual harassment, forced contraception, forced sterilization and sexual torture.
Meanwhile, two additions from the government are forced marriage and sexual slavery.
Especially for forced marriages, Prof. Eddy realizes that there will be many conflicts or debates that arise because these are regulated or included in the TPKS Bill.
Then, for sexual slavery the scope will be wider than that stipulated in the Criminal Act of Trafficking in Persons (TPPO).
The Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights explained that the TIP Law has an economic motive. Meanwhile, in the TPKS Bill, people who are not in the context of economic interests can still be charged with sexual slavery.
Regarding the formulation of the criminal act of the TPKS Bill, it is made or compiled by human resources from the prosecutor's office and the police who have been involved in the crime of sexual violence.
In addition, the TPKS Bill also stipulates a new thing, namely the formation of the Regional Task Implementation Unit for Child Empowerment and Protection (UPTD PPA).
The UPTD PPA which is a proposal from the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri) must be formed in the regions if the TPKS Bill has become law.
"So if there are victims of sexual violence, they will be handled by the UPTD PPA," he said.
