JAKARTA - The Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) prioritizes the recovery of victims of sexual violence committed by suspected kiai Moch Subchi Azal Tsani (MSAT) or Mas Bechi at the Maj'amal Bahrain Shiddiqiyah Islamic Boarding School (Ponpes) Jombang.

"The LPSK ensures that the handling is carried out in order to prioritize the recovery of victims," said LPSK Deputy Chair Susilaningtias in a written statement quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, July 13.

The priority for handling cases of sexual violence is in the form of recovery for victims according to their needs, security, and comfort.

LPSK has received applications for the protection of victims and witnesses of sexual violence cases at the Shiddiqiyyah Islamic Boarding School since December 2021, said Sulistianingtias.

Furthermore, LPSK took steps to protect victims since January 2020. Not only victims, LPSK also provided protection to a number of important witnesses so that the incident could be revealed.

The protection provided is in the form of physical protection, legal assistance at each examination, and more importantly the provision of medical and psychological assistance to victims.

"Trauma healing or what we call it psychological assistance is definitely a program given to victims of sexual violence cases," he said.

He added that LPSK also did the same for other cases of sexual violence, including the convict Herry Wirawan.

In addition, LPSK also facilitates the calculation of compensation (restitution) for victims, both women and children. LPSK assesses that the level of awareness of the legal apparatus to include restitution in a lawsuit in court is quite high.

Nevertheless, the urgent thing that must be done by the Government is to closely monitor educational institutions that have the potential for similar incidents to occur. He also hopes that the government will act hesitant to give strict sanctions to educational institutions that are negligent and provide space for cases of sexual violence.

Finally, he appreciated the government's steps to pay attention to efforts to recover victims of sexual violence cases at the Maj'amal Bahrain Shiddiqiyah Islamic Boarding School, Jombang.
