The result fo this study show that the right of prisoners to have sexsual intercourse with their spuoses have yet to be fullfil because the prison does not have regulation to do so. In addtition, national regulation neither provide standar operating procedures to fulfill sexual right of prisoners. We conslude that constructing a framework for fulfilling the sexual needs of inmates in Palu prison requires a new, integrative policy model. This research offers a novel approach in the form of the establishment of a Safe Counseling and Relationship Zone, a facility that combines psychological and marital counseling services with a hygienic, private, and dignified safe relationship space. The zone not only meets inmates' biological needs but also strengthens family resilience, maintains mental health, and embodies the principle of humanization within the correctional system.]]>
