Abstract

The phenomenon of silence among victims of sexual violence is a crucial issue in law enforcement in Indonesia. Many victims choose not to speak up due to the threat of counter-criminalization under defamation laws, minimal security guarantees, and strong negative societal stigma. This study aims to analyze the forms of legal protection available to victims of sexual violence and their effectiveness in fostering victims' courage to report the violence they have experienced. The research method used is a normative juridical approach with a statutory and conceptual approach. The results indicate that the enactment of Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning Criminal Acts of Sexual Violence (TPKS Law) represents a progressive legal breakthrough, particularly in guaranteeing that victims cannot be prosecuted criminally or sued civilly for their reports. However, in practice, victims' courage to speak up is still hampered by a lack of understanding among law enforcement officials regarding the victim's perspective, limited access to the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) in the regions, and the suboptimal provision of safe spaces free from intimidation. This study concludes that legal guarantees on paper must be balanced with structural reforms of law enforcement institutions and strengthening community support systems so that victims feel fully protected in seeking justice.
