JAKARTA - The case of sexual abuse allegedly committed by a taxi driver with the initials A against a 7-year-old boy, F, has not yet been caught. The victim's family, N hopes that the police can immediately arrest the perpetrator, so that he can feel calm.

As is known, cases of sexual abuse committed by taxi drivers in the Kebayoran Lama area, South Jakarta, have been reported to the police since Tuesday, June 28, 2022.

The report states that the perpetrators can be charged with Article 76D Juncto 81 of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 17 of 2016 for the second amendment to the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 23 of 2022 concerning sexual intercourse with minors.

"I want to catch him quickly," said N when contacted by VOI, Monday, July 18.

"Later, I want to whatsapp the police again today," he continued.

N explained that as long as the perpetrator had not been caught, F's son would be entrusted to his mother's house. This is done to reduce the trauma of the victim.

“I'm worried about my child, but I can't live in my rented house. He wants to be with me, but for the time being I will separate my child first, I will leave it with his mother," he concluded.

Previously, it was reported that the police were still looking for the whereabouts of the perpetrator suspected of molesting a minor with the initial F in the Kebayoran Lama area, South Jakarta.

For information, the perpetrator of the molestation was a taxi driver with the initials A. Ironically, the perpetrator was a neighbor of the victim.

Head of the Women and Children Protection Unit (Kanit PPA) of the South Jakarta Metro Police, AKP Mariana, said that his party was in the process of publishing a wanted list (DPO) for the perpetrators.

"We are still looking for this (perpetrator). We are still in the process of issuing the DPO," Mariana said when contacted on Saturday, July 16.
