Abstract

Violence in society is actually not a new thing. Violence is often carried out in conjunction with one form of criminal act, as regulated in the Criminal Code (KUHP) for example theft with violence (Article 365 of the Criminal Code), rape (Article 285 of the Criminal Code), Persecution (Article 351 of the Criminal Code). However, at this time there is a lot of domestic violence in the form of violence against wives or women. Often this act of violence is called a hidden crime. It is called so, because both the perpetrator and the victim try to keep the act a secret from public view. Sometimes it is also called domestic violence, because violence occurs in the domestic sphere. Criminal acts of domestic violence can cause victims both due to physical, psychological, sexual and neglect, so that efforts to protect victims are needed, including physical and psychological health recovery. For perpetrators of domestic violence, law enforcement efforts are needed to resolve cases of violence through the judicial process. Constraints in resolving domestic violence cases need to be overcome through the role of the government and local governments in collaboration with the community so that the implementation of the elimination of domestic violence can be realized. This study is intended to describe and analyze the legal protection for the victims of domestic violence in Indonesia by comparing some related laws and regulations such as Anti-Domestic Violence Act, Child Protection Act, Human Rights Law, and Indonesian Criminal Code.

Abstract

In some cases when the perpetrator of the crime has been sentenced to criminal sanctions, the condition of the victim of the crime is ignored. The issue of justice and respect for human rights in Indonesia does not only apply to perpetrators of crimes, but also victims of crimes. Law enforcement in this country is often colored with things that are contrary to it. Often in people's lives it shows that both justice and respect for human rights have received less serious attention from the government. Stated in Pancasila, as the philosophy of life of the Indonesian people, the issue of humanity and justice has a very important place for the realization of the 2nd Precept, namely just and civilized humanity and the 5th Precept, namely social justice for all Indonesian people. The government in protecting victims is contained in the law specifically regulating witnesses and victims. Law Number 13 of 2006 concerning the Protection of Witnesses and Victims and followed up with Government Regulation Number 44 of 2008 concerning the Provision of Compensation, Restitution, and Assistance to Witnesses and Victims. For parties, both victims and witnesses who feel they are in a very big threat, their testimonies can also be read out in court and can even give written testimony or online with the approval of the judge. Victims in a crime or crime have a much greater vulnerability in suffering losses both physically and psychologically or materially or immaterially.

Abstract

Sexual harassment is often a problem in social life in Indonesia. The reason is that according to legal records, violence against girls (KTAP) has increased by 2,341 cases, compared to 1,417 the previous year. The increase from the previous year was 65% and the most cases were cases of incest and added to cases of sexual violence (571 cases) while sexual violence against women with disabilities increased by 47% compared to last year and the most victims were intellectual disabilities. Sexual harassment can be in the form of inappropriate behavior or rape. According to WHO in 2006 every day in the world there are women who are harassed, raped or beaten. The Indonesian Criminal Law (KUHP) which regulates this does not have a proper function, because the rules contained in it are incomplete on this issue. Sexual harassment may not cause physical pain and the like, but it can be emotionally harmful. It is very often that sexual harassment cannot be caught because Indonesian laws are imperfect in dealing with this issue. The concept of harassment in Indonesian law has reduced the significance of the harassment experienced by the victim, and therefore cannot bring justice to the victim.

Abstract

Victims of the crime of rape have not received optimal legal protection, even though they have been legally protected through the Law on the Protection of Witnesses and Victims, the Law on Child Protection, or the Law on the Elimination of Domestic Violence. However, the concept of Indonesian criminal law, which focuses more on punishing and deterring criminals, has not been able to accommodate the rights of victims, especially in cases of certain crimes such as rape. In the case of rape, the victim receives an immaterial loss (loss of honor) which is legally difficult to materialize, so that the punishment is limited to imprisonment and a fine which is not sufficient to restore the victim's loss and restore the victim's trauma. This study aims to analyze the protection of victims of rape crime in the perspective of victimology and law. This study uses a normative legal approach, literature review and legal analysis. This study found that the juridical sera, the protection of victims of crime, including victims of rape, has been regulated by the state through several laws. The rights of victims have also been mentioned, ranging from restitution, to recovery of victims' losses and trauma. However, in cases of rape, victims are often dissatisfied with the punishment given to the perpetrators of this crime.

Abstract

The implementation of gender equality in the employment sector remains a significant challenge globally, often hindered by deep-rooted cultural stigma against women. Despite progress in legal frameworks and international conventions advocating for gender equality, women continue to face systemic barriers in accessing equal employment opportunities, fair wages, and career advancement. This paper explores the persistent cultural stigma against women in the workplace and how it undermines efforts to achieve true gender equality. The study examines various forms of discrimination, including biased hiring practices, wage gaps, limited access to leadership roles, and the undervaluation of traditionally "female" occupations. It also delves into the societal and cultural factors that perpetuate gender-based stereotypes, such as the expectation of women’s primary responsibility for household and caregiving duties, which further restrict their professional opportunities. The paper further analyzes the impact of such stigma on women’s mental and emotional well-being, highlighting the long-term effects of discrimination on women’s professional development and self-esteem. It argues that for gender equality to be fully realized in the employment sector, there needs to be a transformative shift in cultural attitudes and workplace norms, alongside the enforcement of stronger policies and regulations. The paper concludes with recommendations for organizations and governments to foster a culture of inclusivity, promote gender-sensitive policies, and address cultural stigma through education and awareness programs, thus enabling women to thrive professionally without fear of discrimination.
