Abstract

The high rate of recidivism indicates that the rehabilitation programs available in correctional institutions have not been fully effective in assisting inmates with their rehabilitation and reducing the likelihood of reoffending after release. The Class IIA Women's Correctional Facility in Bandar Lampung is a specialized institution for female inmates, including those with a history of recidivism. This study aims to analyze the rehabilitation programs for female recidivist inmates at the Class IIA Women's Correctional Facility in Bandar Lampung and identify the challenges encountered in their implementation.  A qualitative approach with a descriptive framework is employed to evaluate the rehabilitation programs at the institution in addressing female inmate recidivism. Data collection methods include interviews with prison staff, former inmates, and experts in the field of corrections, complemented by a literature review and direct observations.  The findings reveal that while rehabilitation programs at the Class IIA Women's Correctional Facility in Bandar Lampung have an impact on inmates, they remain suboptimal. Vocational training programs are not sufficiently aligned with labor market demands, and psychological and social support services are limited, despite many inmates facing trauma and mental health issues. Societal stigma and a lack of family support further hinder reintegration efforts.  To reduce recidivism and enhance reintegration, it is crucial to provide relevant vocational training, improve psychological services, and implement strategies to foster societal acceptance. Collaboration between the government, correctional institutions, and community organizations is essential in supporting former inmates and minimizing the risk of reoffending.

Abstract

The crime of physical sexual violence against individuals with mental disorders is a serious human rights violation and requires strict law enforcement. This study examines Decision Number 657/Pid.B/2024/PN Tjk, in which the defendant was found guilty under Article 285 of the Criminal Code and sentenced to eight years in prison and a fine of Rp 2,000. This study aims to analyze how law enforcement is carried out against perpetrators of sexual violence targeting people with mental disorders and to identify factors that hinder this process. Using a normative and empirical juridical approach, data were collected through a literature review and interviews with investigators, judges, and legal scholars, then analyzed qualitatively. The findings indicate that although law enforcement has been carried out in accordance with the Criminal Code, weaknesses still remain, especially at the execution stage, which focuses more on punishment than on victim recovery. In addition, this study identifies challenges related to legal substance, law enforcement capacity, infrastructure, and socio-cultural attitudes. In conclusion, synchronization between the Criminal Code and Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning Crimes of Sexual Violence is crucial to ensure justice, with an emphasis on victim restitution, rehabilitation, and strengthening inter-institutional coordination.
