The legal materials used to analyze the issue were primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials through scientific journals, statutory regulations, and other relevant legal literature. The research results indicated that there are many serious obstacles and challenges faced by victims of sexual violence, such as law enforcement, lack of understanding by law enforcement officials regarding victims' rights, criminalisation of victims, and difficulties for victims in accessing support services.
