Abstract

Abstract: This study aims to determine the victimology review of victims of criminal acts of child molestation committed by their stepfather and uncle. This research raises two issues, namely how to review the victimology of victims of criminal acts of sexual abuse and the form of legal protection for children who are victims of criminal acts of sexual abuse. This research uses empirical legal research methods with a descriptive approach. The results of this research show that children who are victims of criminal acts of sexual abuse have a passive role in that they do not act, but with their attitude they push themselves to become victims, resulting in crimes occurring against them, whose nature and character tend to be weak physically and in terms of their thinking power. The legal protection provided is contained in Law Number 35 of 2014 in place of Law Number 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection. Protection efforts include the rehabilitation of children who are victims and providing protection for the broadcast of victims' identities to prevent labeling of children which affects the future of children who are victims of criminal acts of sexual abuse.

Abstract

This research discusses the legal protection mechanisms available to pension beneficiaries against maladministration in pension fund payments by partner banks of PT Taspen (Persero), specifically Bank SulutGo in the Gorontalo region. The background of this study stems from the fact that pension funds are a constitutional right of citizens, as stated in Article 28H paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, and are also a form of social security guaranteed by Law No. 40 of 2004 concerning the National Social Security System. However, in practice, maladministration cases such as unilateral account blocking, transfer delays, and lack of transparency in information have been found, which cause retirees difficulties in accessing their entitlements. This study uses normative legal research methods with a statute approach and case approach, based on a study of banking regulations, consumer protection, and the social security system. The results of this research indicate that maladministration in pension fund payments can be categorized as a violation of consumer rights as regulated in Law No. 8 of 1999 on Consumer Protection and is contrary to the principles of prudence, transparency, and accountability in banking. The available legal protection mechanisms are divided into preventive measures, such as strengthening regulations and supervision, and repressive measures through internal complaints in banks, dispute resolution through the OJK and LAPS-SJK, up to civil lawsuits in court. However, challenges such as weak supervision, limited legal literacy, and the position of pensioners as vulnerable groups remain the main obstacles. Therefore, comprehensive legal protection needs to be strengthened, involving the government, PT Taspen, partner banks, and law enforcement agencies, to guarantee legal certainty, justice, and benefits for pension beneficiaries.
