00:00Aceh, Indonesia
00:06The province of Aceh is in a bad situation.
00:09Statistics released by the BPS Statistical Center
00:15show that there are 1,443 rape cases throughout Indonesia throughout 2022.
00:23Of the total, 135 of them took place in Aceh.
00:29This number ranks Aceh as the highest rape case in Indonesia.
00:36Rape cases in Aceh are also recorded by the Aceh Sharia Court,
00:40which has more cases.
00:44In 2022, the number of rape cases handled by the Sharia Court reached 161 cases.
00:52In 2023, the number increased to 177 cases.
00:59In 2024, until June, the Sharia Court has handled 62 rape cases
01:06that took place in the Serampi, Mekah region.
01:09The youngest judge of the Aceh Sharia Court, Muhammad Raihan,
01:13said on July 10 that rape cases in Aceh
01:16are usually committed by people close to the victim,
01:19such as family and neighbors.
01:21Sanctions or punishments have been set in the law.
01:27In the law, it's set like that.
01:29It's set that for rape,
01:32usually there is a minimum penalty, right?
01:36There's a fine, there's a fine, there's a fine.
01:43Usually, the Sharia Court also sets it like that.
01:49For example, for cases like this,
01:51especially those who have a relationship,
01:53that people will meet.
01:55It's usually given a prison sentence.
01:58There is no choice, no punishment.
02:03The threat of a prison sentence for a rapist
02:06is a form of justice for the victim.
02:09The head of the National Human Rights Commission,
02:12Komnas Ham Perwakilan Aceh, Sepriyadi, said
02:15the fulfillment of the victim's rights as a whole
02:17is just as important as the punishment for the perpetrator.
02:22However, this is considered not to be the maximum,
02:25even for the highest rape cases in Aceh in Indonesia.
02:31Sexual violence victims have the right
02:35to get psychosocial services,
02:38medical services,
02:40as well as compensation, restitution.
02:45And in Aceh itself, there is a law
02:54that regulates the handling of sexual harassment cases
03:06against women and children.
03:09Sepriyadi urges GENCAR to conduct education and socialization
03:13as a form of prevention efforts
03:15against sexual harassment and violence,
03:17especially in schools and villages.
03:21Regional and educational governments
03:23must work together
03:25to reduce the number of sexual harassment cases in Aceh.
