LEGAL PROTECTION FOR CHILDREN AS VICTIMS OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE IN FULFILLMENT RESTITUTION RIGHTS

Niken Subekti Budi Utami, Imam Prabowo

Abstract

This is an empirical normative study, which aims to determine the legal protection for child victims of sexual violence in the context of law enforcement and the implementation of the right to restitution. In addition, the materials used were primary and secondary data. The legal instrument that implements the rights to restitution for children victims is the arrangement of articles that are unclear and incomplete, resulting in problems. However, bad judges prevent courts from implementing these rights. Unclear and incomplete rules on procedures concerning restitution rights have resulted in an understanding of law enforcement officials, especially in conducting the inter-court application process, and proceedings. Meanwhile, the human resource factors in supporting the fulfillment of restitution are deemed inadequate. The existence of a legal vacuum in the procedures for fulfilling these rights has made the public prosecutor to implement the court resolution and make innovation through consensus decision making.
