Abstract:

Rape is a frightening crime for women because the impact of rape is not only felt when the crime is committed, but also affects the future. One of them is an unwanted pregnancy. For rape victims, the choice of continuing an unwanted pregnancy or having an abortion is an equally difficult choice. Basically, abortion is clearly a prohibited act, both legally, morally, ethically, decently, and religiously. Although prohibited, abortion cases in Indonesia actually show an increase every year. In response to the problem of abortion for victims of rape, the government has given birth to Law Number 36 of 2009 concerning Health. However, since the legal umbrella was born, it has been minimal and in fact there have been almost no rape victims who have used this safe abortion practice as a way to abort their unwanted abortion. This happens because of problems in the field of practice, it is not as easy as the description of the theory set forth in the legislation. While almost every day rape victims continue to fall in all parts of Indonesia. To answer this problem, the author conducts research using normative juridical methods. Thus it is expected to be able to find problems or problems in the implementation of abortion for victims of rape based on Law Number 36 of 2009 concerning Health. The research shows that there are three problems in Law Number 36 Year 2009 regarding Health which makes it difficult for rape victims to obtain safe and legal abortion services. These problems include the maximum obstetrical age of 40 days for abortion for rape victims to be considered too short, the Ministry of Health has never prepared training requirements for medical personnel and counseling training for abortion for rape victims, then health services that meet the conditions set by the Minister is still very limited and cannot be easily accessed in any part of Indonesia. Therefore, the problematic implementation of legal and safe abortion for rape victims found in the Health Act must be immediately corrected, so that rape victims do not return to become victims due to the implementation of unsafe illegal abortion practices.

Abstract:

Women (wives) is the most hidden victim of marital rape. Regarding this issue, we argue that women victims need victim assistance to prevent secondary victimization. This article is based on a literature review with a qualitative approach. Turning to marital rape cases in Indonesia, women's victims get harmful impacts in physiological and physical. Women victims of marital rape in Tanjung Priok, Bali, Pasuruan, and "L" are some of them. We conclude that the government and other stakeholders need to provide victim assistance for women victims of marital rape in mental and physical health, legal services (advocacy), economic empowerment, campaign, and particular public services spaces. The first thing to do is mental and physical health, but the next part, like legal services, is essential to prevent secondary victimization. Therefore, campaign to build awareness from society is essential to prevent stigmatization for women victims of marital rape. Finally, to implementing the role of victim assistant to prevent secondary victimization in marital rape cases needs unity for people by people and institution by institution. It is needed the same standpoint about marital rape. Perempuan (secara khusus istri) merupakan korban tersembunyi dari pemerkosaan dalam pernikahan (marital rape). Menanggapi hal tersebut, menjadi penting untuk mempertimbangkan peran pendampingan korban atau victimassistance untuk menghindari viktimisasi sekunder (secondary victimization). Adapun artikel ini berdasarkan penelusuran literatur (literature review) dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Mengacu pada kasus marital rape yang dialami perempuan (istri) di Indonesia, maka hal tersebut berdampak buruk secara fisik maupun psikologis. Perempuan di Tanjung Priok, Bali, Pasuruan dan “L” merupakan contoh korban marital rape. Kesimpulan tulisan ini yaitu mendorong pemerintah dan pihak terkait agar segera menyediakan layanan pendampingan perempuan korban marital rape secara fisik, psikologis, bantuan hukum, pemberdayaan ekonomi, kampanye dan layanan di ruang publik. Hal yang pertama dilakukan adalah pendampingan layanan fisik dan mental. Kemudian, membangun kesadaran publik agar perempuan korban marital rape tidak distigmatisasi. Akhirnya, untuk menerapkan peran victimassistant sebagai pencegahan secondary victimization bagi perempuan korban marital rape membutuhkan kesatuan dari berbagai pihak dan lembaga. Persepektif yang sama terkait marital rape jelas dibutuhkan.

Abstract:

The alleged rape case of a child at East Luwu in 2019 was terminated due to lack of evidence. Because of the news from mass media, the case was reopened in 2021 but was obstructed due to the need to wait for new evidence. This article does not discuss the evidence but highlights the procedure for handling child sexual victims that are used by several institutions. There are several institutions that can be involved in helping accompany and handle cases involving children as victims. At regional levels, there is the Integrated Service Center for the Empowerment of Women and Children (P2TP2A) whose duty is to give information, consultation on psychology and law, accompaniment and advocation, and services on medication and shelter. And the National Police of the Republic of Indonesia has the authority to start handling a criminal case. According to news from Vice.com, the case at North Luwu was originally reported by the victim’s mother to The Integrated Service Center for The Empowerment of Women And Children East Luwu. The officer then summoned the victim’s father who was the suspect. The officer reasoned that the mother’s report needed to be confirmed. The victim’s mother then reported the case to East Luwu Police Station. The police did an investigation, without the parents, law advisors, social workers, or even psychologists. This case then snowballed, and the evidence was put into question, without many highlights to the handling procedure that was used by The Integrated Service Center for The Empowerment of Women And Children officers and police force. How should the procedure on handling the child sexual victim have been done? If a mistake in the handling procedure occurred, are there any legal consequences? This article was developed as normative research, using statutory regulations, research results, and the opinion of law experts, as well as case progression from credible mass media.

Abstract:

This paper seeks to see how the Qanun Jinayah discriminates against women who are victims of rape. In Qanun Jinayah in article 52, paragraph 1, explain that the victim of rape must include evidence at the time of report. The Qanun Jinayah clearly makes a double burden on the victims where women victims of rape must present evidence and witnesses. Whereas in the criminal law (KUHP), evidence and witnesses are the responsibility of the investigator. This study seeks to see how the discriminatory impacts experienced by victims (women) after the Qanun Jinayah is implemented. Furthermore, this paper uses qualitative method with in-depth interview. The hypothesis of this paper is that Qanun Jinayah has discriminated against women especially the victims of rape and this allows the occurrence of injustice and violation of human rights.

Abstract:

This paper analyzes and provides advice on legal protection for rape victims in Indonesia in transcendental, restorative law, and responsive law perspectives. These perspectives are compared and combined in an effort to seek an ideal concept. The implication of this paper is to provide advice for an ideal concept of legal protection for victims of rape in an Indonesian context. This paper uses a normative juridical approach with a legal interpretation method. This paper concludes that law enforcement against perpetrators of rape in the Indonesian context can employ transcendental, restorative law, and responsive law approaches. However, in an effort to find an ideal concept, the transcendental perspective of maṣlaḥah mursalah which considers benefits for the public and prevents harm is more suitable for use in Indonesia’s pluralistic society. This is because, in addition to emphasizing moral, ethical, and religious values in law enforcement, the approach will prevent recurrence of cases through handing out severe punishment to perpetrators of rape and providing physical and psychological rehabilitation to victims to make it in line with restorative justice in which victims get the right to recover physically and mentally without reducing the punishment for rape perpetrators.

Abstract:

A questionnaire addressing rape crisis services for male significant others (MSOs) of rape victims (i.e., husbands, fathers, brothers, close male friends) was mailed to the directors of all 700 rape-prevention and -treatment programs in the United States. Completed questionnaires were received from 411 programs, including 162 that were identified specifically as full-service rape crisis centers. Although 97% of the center directors responded that services for MSOs facilitate victim recovery, few centers offered services to males other than referral or short-term crisis counseling. Furthermore, 85% of the directors acknowledged that males were reluctant to use these services. The authors offer strategies for involving men in the recovery process with the assistance of rape crisis centers, including groups for secondary victims and staffing and referral considerations.

Abstract:

The crime of rape is the most difficult case in the settlement, either at the stage of investigation, prosecution, or at the stage of the adjudication of the verdict. Legal protection of victims of criminal rape in positive law in Indonesia is currently not based on the value of justice, because there are still weaknesses, namely the weakness of the law, the weakness of the approach / way of thinking of law enforcers, as well as the weaknesses during the criminal justice process.

Abstract:

Tindak pidana dapat terjadi terhadap siapa saja tidak memandang jenis kelamin seseorang, hal tersebut berlaku pula terhadap tindak pidana pemerkosaan. Pemerkosaan yang selama ini identik dengan perbuatan persetubuhan dengan pemaksaan terhadap perempuan, namun tidak menutup kemungkinan laki-laki juga menjadi korban pemerkosaan. Guna melindungi hak asasi manusia dari ancaman kekerasan seksual, tindak pidana pemerkosaan harus diatur secara umum yakni berlaku korban laki-laki dan perempuan. Adapun permasalahan yang diangkat dalam penelitian ini yakni bagaimana formulasi kebijakan hukum pemerkosaan terhadap laki-laki yang berlaku saat ini dan formulasi kebijakan hukum pemerkosaan laki-laki di masa mendatang di Indonesia. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah penelitian hukum normatif. Hasil dari penelitian ini yakni pemerkosaan terhadap laki-laki belum diatur dalam KUHP maupun aturan manapun. Pasal yang sering dijatuhkan dalam tindak pidana kesusilaan terhadap laki-laki yakni pasal 289 KUHP tentang perbuatan cabul. Pemerkosaan terhadap anak laki-laki tidak diatur pula dalam KUHP namun yang diatur adalah perbuatan cabul. Undang-Undang Perlindungan Anak memberikan rumusan larangan terhadap pemerkosaan terhadap anak. Formulasi kebijakan hukum pemerkosaan laki-laki di masa mendatang di Indonesia dapat dilihat pada rumusan KUHP. Pemerkosaan dalam RKUHP tidak memandang gender pelaku atau korban sehingga dalam Rancangan KUHP memberikan perlindungan bagi laki-laki sebagai korban pemerkosaan. Crime can happen to everyone regardless someone’s gender, including rape crime. Rape has been known as crime that the victim is a woman, but it is possible that men can be victims in rape crime too. In order, to protect human rights from sexual violence, The crime of rape, both men and women who are victims, must be considered. The problems in this study are : what are the legal arrangements regarding the crime of rape that currently apply in Indonesia and how are the formulation of the male rape law policy in the future (ius constituendum) in Indonesia. This research used normative legal research method. The result of this study is that rape of men has not been. The article that is often imposed in criminal acts of decency against men is Article 289 of the Criminal Code of Indonesia concerning obscene acts. Against boys, there is not regulated in Criminal Code of Indonesia, but the regulation about it found in Act Number 23 of 2002 juncto Act Number 35 of 2014 about Child Protection. The future legal policies about male rape legal policies can be seen in the Criminal Code Layout (RKUHP). Rape in Criminal Code Layout (RKUHP)does not look at the gender of the criminals or victims, so Criminal Code Layout (RKUHP) provides protection for men as victims of rape.

Abstract:

This article explores the involvement of specialist sexual violence services, including Independent Sexual Violence Advisers (ISVAs), in supporting victims/survivors of rape and sexual abuse to engage with the criminal justice system (CJS) in England and Wales. The underpinning research, conducted in one area of England, included referral data from the police and key specialist sexual violence services, interviews with 15 victims/survivors of sexual violence in contact with the police and specialist services, and interviews with 14 practitioners from sexual violence and related services. We examine the complex needs of victims/survivors of sexual violence (who have experienced historical child sexual abuse, acquaintance rape or rape in the context of intimate partner abuse), how their needs differ and vary over time, and the ways in which these diverse and changing needs are met by specialist sexual violence services. Non-specialist agencies, such as statutory mental health services, are unable to provide similarly targeted responses. The research found that specialist sexual violence services play particularly crucial roles through the use of approaches that can be characterised as flexible, enabling, holding and mending. However, this important work could easily be lost in the current climate of local service commissioning, to the great detriment of victims/survivors of sexual violence.

OBJECTIVE To know the structure and functioning of healthcare services from the perspective of women who have suffered rape. METHOD A qualitative study conducted with 11 women who experienced rape, monitored in a maternity in the state of Alagoas, Brazil. Data were systematically based on content analysis. RESULTS It allowed for understanding the path taken by women in search of support from health services, as well as the limitations and capabilities of these services. CONCLUSION The assistance received in healthcare services leans towards a revictimization process of women who already carry trauma from the rape. It is necessary to reflect about care practices aimed at sexually victimized women.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore whether the voluntary sector meets male rape victims’ needs in England, UK. The author’s contribution represents an attempt to piece together some of the voluntary sector’s responses to male rape victims in England, UK and examine whether they meet male rape victims’ needs. Design/methodology/approach The author draws on data collected from semi-structured interviews and qualitative questionnaires with male rape counsellors, therapists and voluntary agency caseworkers (n=70). Findings The findings reveal nuanced themes that have been overlooked in the existing literature of male rape: first, male rape victims are not given a choice of their voluntary agency practitioner (regarding gender) to serve them; second, there is no specific training on male rape in voluntary agencies; third, the impact of limited resources and funding in the voluntary sector means that many male rape victims’ needs are unmet; and finally, there is ageism and discrimination in some voluntary agencies, whereby male rape victims are prioritised in terms of their age. Research limitations/implications Methodologically, the author’s sample size was not considerably large (n=70), making it difficult to generalise the findings to all voluntary agency practitioners in a British context. Practical implications At a time of scarce funding and scant resources for the third sector, the impact of limited resources and funding in the voluntary sector could mean that male rape victims may not receive proper care and treatment. Budget cuts in the third sector are problematic, in that voluntary agencies may be unable to get access to robust training programs for male rape or to resources that can help shape and develop the ways in which they serve male rape victims. The needs of male rape victims, therefore, are unlikely to be met at the local, regional and national levels. Social implications Some practitioners are misinformed about male rape and do not have the tools to be able to adequately and efficiently handle male rape victims. Not only can their lack of understanding of male rape worsen male rape victims’ trauma through inappropriate ways of handling them, but also the practitioners may implicitly reinforce male rape myths, such as “male rape is solely a homosexual issue” or “men cannot be raped”. Originality/value Whilst previous contributions have recognised the third sector’s responses to female rape victims, little work has been done to identify their treatment of male rape victims. The author attempts to fill some of this lacuna. In particular, The author draws attention to some of the issues and dilemmas that arise when voluntary agencies provide services for male victims of rape. The author’s concern is that many male rape victims’ needs may be neglected or ignored because of the rise in neoliberalism, as there appears to be a financial meltdown in the voluntary sector.

Abstract:

Kejahatan yang melibatkan kekuatan dan kekerasan mengalami pergeseran di mana dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat ditemukan adanya kasus-kasus dan jajak pendapat terkait perkosaan terhadap laki-laki. Akan tetapi, pandangan atas laki-laki menghambat korban perkosaan terhadap laki-laki bersuara. Hukum sebagai pemberi keadilan dan kepastian seharusnya bisa berdiri di atas pandnagan tersebut, sehingga laki-laki korban perkosaan mendapat haknya secara penuh. Berdasarkan hal tersebut permasalahan yang diusung dalam penulisan ini adalah bagaimana pengaturan hukum pidana terkait perkosaan atas laki-laki di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian normatif melalui jenis pendekatan perundang-undangan, pendekatan kasus, dan perbandingan. Hasil dari penelitian ini ditemukan bahwa ada kekosongan norma di dalam hukum pidana di Indonesia, karena Pasal 285 KUHP sebagai dasar hukum yang mengatur tentang perkosaan hanya melibatkan perempuan sebagai korbannya, sehingga pembahruan hukum pidana perlu dijadikan urgensi agar laki-laki korban perkosaan mendapatkan perlindungan. Crimes involving force and violence underwent a shift where in social life there were cases and opinion polls related to the rape of men. However, the stigma against men prevents victims of rape against men from speaking out. The law as a giver of justice and certainty should be able to stand above this stigma, so that male victims of rape get their full rights. Based on this, the problem that is carried out in this article is how to regulate criminal law related to rape of Indonesia. This research used normative research method through the types of statutory approaches, case approaches, and comparisons. The results of this study found that there is a norm vacuum that occurs in Indonesian criminal law, because in the Article 285 of the Criminal Code which regulates rape only involves women as victims, so that criminal law reform needs to be made urgency so that male rape victims get protection.

Abstract:

Abortion is a very contradictory problem, of course there are also those who support and those who oppose abortion, which often affects women who experience pregnancy as a result of rape, because women who are aborted who abort abortion also need attention to their psychological condition that is traumatized regarding events that have happened to him. As for the problems faced, namely: Protection in the Criminal Code against victims of rape who had an abortion? And How does the crime of miscarriage by the victim due to rape in the renewal of the Criminal Law Act? The type of research used is normative research and conceptual approach. Where in the results of this study it can be seen that the legal protection of rape victims who have aborted content in the Criminal Code has been neglected by clearly prohibiting all abortion activities either at the request of the woman herself or with the help of others described in Article 346 to Article 349 of the Criminal Code but there are exceptions where women who are victims of rape who have had an abortion which can cause psychological trauma whose arrangements are set out in law no. 36 of 2009 Article 75 paragraph (2). In the Renewal of Criminal Law Regulations on abortion are regulated in the Criminal Code 2019 of Chapter XXI included in the Criminal Acts against Lives Part Two concerning Abortion of Article 470 to Article 472 RUUKUHP 2019.

Abstract:

Marital rape is part of the form of rape in domestic violence. Its limited characteristics in the family sphere and cultural construction make marital rape sometimes escapes the attention of victims and also the community. In Indonesia, marital rape is still considered as abnormally and impossible incident, it is considered as impossible act for a husband to rape his own wife or vice versa. In several cases had occurred in Indonesia, marital rape become a trigger for physical violence that led to murder (homicide). For example in the two cases of homicide has occurred in Serang City in 2021 and Cilegon 2019. In these two cases, marital rape occurred which led to murder or loss of life. This paper will examine women who are victims of marital rape who are designated as murder suspects, a case study in Serang City. This study uses a normative legal research method with a statutory approach and cases approach. The results of this study indicate that the determination of woman victims of marital rape as murder suspects in the perspective of victimology does not consider the perspective of the victim's role in the occurrence of a crime. There are two criminal acts happening simultaneously; marital rape and murder. First, the husband as the perpetrator of marital rape against his wife who later becomes a victim of murder due to self defense (the second case). Therefore, in the theory of victim precipitation, the victim plays a role in creating the crime it-self. The causes of marital rape victims who later become perpetrators of murder must also be considered about. The role of the perpetrators of marital rape is active participation which then resulted in his death. The things that attend in this situation must and need to be considered by law enforcement officials, from the first thing when conducting an investigation. This will affect the next law enforcement process. Therefore, victim precipitation must be considered by investigators in reviewing the chronology of the case before determining the suspect in order to fulfill the rights and protection of the actual victims.

Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to assess the impact of gender-stereotypical beliefs and associated factors (gender, level of rape myth acceptance (RMA), and occupation) on public attitudes towards rape victims with the aim of establishing whether participant and perpetrator characteristics have effects on individuals’ attitudes towards rape victims. With regards to participants, gender, age, occupation, and the extent to which an individual endorses rape myths were investigated. The authors also considered whether participants’ attitudes were influenced by the occupation of a rapist as described in a vignette looking at occupations deemed to be stereotypically male or female. Design/methodology/approach – In total, 185 individuals participated in the study and were randomly assigned to one of three conditions based on the rapist’s occupation (stereotypically male occupation, gender-neutral occupation or stereotypically female occupation). Participants completed an online survey consisting of a RMA questionnaire, read a short vignette depicting a rape scenario (where they were also informed of the perpetrator’s occupation) and completed a further questionnaire on their attitudes towards rape victims. Results were examined by regression. Findings – The results indicate that both participant occupation and level of RMA significantly contributed to attitudes towards rape victims, however, a statistically significant effect for rapist occupation was not found. Originality/value – Findings are discussed in terms of implications for individuals working within services supporting victims of rape and the potential consequences of holding stereotypical beliefs for rape victims and perpetrators. It is important that research identifies those factors that might bias decision making in the legal system and thus impact upon outcomes for victims and offenders.

Abstract:

Recent prevalence studies have suggested that 15–22% of women have been raped at some point in their lives, many by close acquaintances, although few victims seek assistance services or professional psychotherapy immediately post-assault. Surveys have revealed that 31–48% of rape victims eventually sought professional psychotherapy, often years after the actual assault. These observations suggest that the primary role of clinicians in the treatment of rape victims is the identification and handling of chronic, post-traumatic responses to a nonrecent experience. However, it is concluded that most of the existing literature on rape treatment addresses only the target symptoms that represent the immediate response to rape. In this article, contemporary theoretical and empirical discussions of stress, cognitive appraisal, cognitive adaptation, and coping are used to conceptualize the long-term impact of rape and the process of resolution. Directions for future research on the clinical treatment of rape are suggested.

Abstract:

In this present time, the debate about abortion in Indonesia is increasingly crowded. Abortion is also carried out by women - victims of rape to reduce the burden they suffered. The regulation on abortion in Indonesia has been regulated in the statutory regulations, namely the Criminal Code, especially in Article 346, Article 347, Article 348, and Article 349. In the RKUHP (Draft of Criminal Code), abortion regulation is regulated in two chapters namely, Chapter XIV Article 501 and Chapter XIX Articles 589, 590, 591, 592. In addition, the government has also issued several regulations governing abortion such as Government Regulation No. 61 of 2014 concerning Reproductive Health and also Law No. 36 of 2009 concerning health. However, the various regulations that exist between the Criminal Code, RKUHP, PP and the Act actually contradict to each other. There is no synchronization between the regulations regarding abortion by women rape victims. The KUHP and RKUHP clearly do not allow abortion in Indonesia and do not legalize it without any exception, including abortion carried out by women victims of rape. Whereas in Law Number 36 of 2009 concerning health, abortion can be carried out on an indication of medical emergencies and pregnancy due to rape that causes psychological trauma, so abortionists cannot be prosecuted as criminal.

Abstract:

Drawing on a Foucauldian approach and on interview data including male rape counsellors, therapists and voluntary agency caseworkers ( N=70), the author attempts to make sense of the different ways in which male rape is constructed in order to better understand how it is considered and responded to in current English society. The qualitative data herein, which were collected through semi-structured interviews and qualitative questionnaires, are theoretically and conceptually informed. The author argues that male rape is socially and culturally constructed in voluntary agencies in England and shaped by discourse, power and knowledge. For example, discourse on male rape is constructed and reconstructed through social and power relations, and through social interactions between voluntary agency practitioners and male rape victims, accompanied by the attendant social structures and social practices. The implication of these arguments is that the voluntary agency practitioners think about and respond to male rape victims in an inconsistent, unpredictable and variable way, meaning that the practitioners are reliant on different discourses and cultural myths about male rape when providing support and services for male rape victims.

Abstract:

Rape has long been a brutal part of the- human history of forceful sexual intercourse against a person who is weakened, unconscious or powerless of giving valid permission. The documented rise in sexual violence in Nigeria especially people with poor socio-economic legislators and status is not only to attributed to excessive drinking and indecent dressing but men superiority or the support of culture and beliefs that rape is a sign of maleness the fear of stigmatization, extortion from law enforcement, and lastly lack of confidence in the judicial system. However, there is paucity of literature on how socio-legal attribute on rape victims in Nigeria. Hence, this study investigated the effect of socio-legal attitude toward rape victims in Nigeria. The study employed survey research design. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to 1000 respondents to obtain information on relevant issues through the aid of Google. Results from the study show that majority of the respondents had a negative attitude towards rape victims. There was an effect on gender differences in the attitude of Nigerians to male rape victims based on gender differences with a p-value < 0.05 (0.000, X2 = 197.307). Therefore, we failed to reject the alternate hypothesis. There was an effect in the attitude of Nigerians to female rape victims based on gender differences with a p-value < 0.05 (0.000, X2 = 18.955). Therefore, the null hypothesis is rejected.In conclusion, there is a need for public health education on rape and as well encouragement of victims to report cases with an assurance of their safety. Specialized women’s right organizations that should provide capacity building support and logistics services to youths and students in higher institutions and more studies should be carried out to identify the perception of gender-based rape among specific regions in the country and assessment of rape myths and factors that make them.

Abstract:

This paper adopts the theoretical framework of hegemonic masculinity to elucidate and make sense of male sexual victimisation. Critically evaluating the empirical data, which comprises of police officers and practitioners in voluntary agencies (N = 70), that this paper offers, I argue that gender expectations, hegemonic masculinities and sexism prevail in societies, state and voluntary agencies. It has been found that, because male rape victims embody subordinate masculinities, they are marginalised as ‘abnormal’ and ‘deviant’. They are, in other words, classified as the ‘other’ for challenging and contradicting hegemonic masculinity, disrupting the gender order of men. Consequently, male sexual victimisation is not taken seriously in services, policy and practice, whilst the victims of this crime type are relegated in the gender hierarchy. As a result, male rape victims suffer a ‘masculinity crisis’ in the context of male rape. This paper attempts to open up a dialogue regarding male rape and male sexual assault, to challenge hegemonic masculinity, and to bring male rape ‘out of the closet’.

Abstract:

Purpose While awareness of sexual assaults on college campuses has increased, the majority of efforts to address it are focused on female victims. The relative neglect of male victims may be due in part to problematic rape myths that suggest men cannot be sexually assaulted, especially by women. The purpose of this paper is to compare rates of different types of sexual assault between male and female undergraduates, and explore the relationship between acceptance of traditional rape myths focused on female victims, and rape myths surrounding male victims. Design/methodology/approach Students at a mid-sized university in Pennsylvania (n=526) answered an online questionnaire about their own experiences of sexual assault since coming to college, as well as their endorsement of male and female rape myths. Findings While women experienced more sexual assault overall, men were just as likely to have experienced rape (i.e. forced penetration) or attempted rape. Acceptance of male and female rape myths was significantly correlated and men were more likely than women to endorse both. Participants were also more likely to endorse female than male rape myths. Research limitations/implications By analyzing sexual assaults in terms of distinct behaviors instead of one composite score, the authors can get a more nuanced picture of how men and women experience assault. Practical implications Campus-based efforts to address sexual assault need to be aware that male students also experience assault and that myths surrounding men as victims may impede their ability to access services. Originality/value This paper contributes to our knowledge of a relatively understudied topic: undergraduate male victims of sexual assault.

Abstract:

This research explores the emotional reactions of a rarely studied group of women who work closely with survivors of sexual violence: rape victim advocates. Women who assist rape victims in obtaining medical, criminal justice, and mental health services were interviewed about their experiences, and qualitative analysis was used to delineate the situational context of the advocates' emotional reactions. Results indicate that respondents experienced anger and fear in response to both individual (e.g., a perpetrator's menacing glare) and environmental (e.g., community denial of a problem) cues. Additionally, some experienced rape victim advocates perceived their emotional reactions to be an important part of their work with rape victims. These findings suggest that intense emotional reactions, previously conceptualized within a vicarious trauma framework, may at times serve as resources for women working with rape survivors.

Abstract:

Victims of rape often do not get adequate rights and legal protection. In many cases of rape, the law is not able to fully accommodate the rights of the victim, the law is only limited to fulfilling the desire to punish the perpetrator. The complexity of the legal process usually makes victims prefer the peaceful path. Even though the injuries received by the victim have a serious impact even for the future of the victim. Moreover, many rape cases have reached court but the perpetrators have not been sentenced to the maximum penalty as stated in the Criminal Code. This study is intended to analyze and examine the victim of rape protection in the context of law and society. The study analyzes and compares some related laws concerning to victim protection, women protection, child protection, and human right protection in national context of Indonesia.

Abstract:

Background: Rape is a very alarming situation in the context of Bangladesh. It is the most common form of violence against woman. In Bangladesh, rape is found as the second commonly reported form of violence against women, following dowry related harassment. However, sexual violence has a great impact on physical and mental state of health with an increased range of sexual & reproductive health problem. Objectives: To describe rape victims medico-legal examination findings those includes sociodemographic characteristics, location of victim's residence, victims signs of struggle / violence & condition of hymen, status of victims vaginal swab test report, state of victim's mental condition & sexual abuse, state of victim's sign of Non-Genital Violence & state of accused and victim's status of pregnancy as well. Methods: This was a descriptive type of cross-sectional study taken from a retrospective record review which was done in the Department of Forensic Medicine, Shaheed Suhrawardi Medical College, Dhaka, Bangladesh from 29th Oct 2017 to 30th Sep 2019 with the support of department faculties in reviewing the records using a checklist. Results: More than 60% victims were within 15-29 years of age with mean age 18.69 years and SD: + 5.921. Among the victims 27.5% had no formal education & almost 78% victims' occupation was student and garment workers. The study revealed that 76.3% victims were single (Unmarried) and 34.8% & 19.3% of the victims' residence was Ashulia, & Dhamrai respectively. Among the victims only 67.6% had the consent for medico-legal examination. Signs of struggle / violence was present only on 5.71% and ruptured hymen was found in 96.43% of victims respectively. Negative spermatozoa were found among all respondents. All of the respondents were found as Anxious and depressive. Moreover, state of sexual abuse was present among 98.57% respondents and 96.43% victims had the state of non-genital violence. Almost 95% of the victim's examination was done between more than 7 days to 1 month. Only 5% of the victims were found pregnant. Conclusion: The study findings demand a growing need focusing in developing strategies for the care & support of rape victims. An adequate legal coverage for the rape victims, a post rape health and social services can be considered an unmet need for the society in deed.

Abstract:

Persons with disabilities refer to people who have physical, intellectual, mental, or sensory deficiencies so that in living their lives they find hindrances, as an opposite to normal people. Oftentimes the persons with disabilities receive poor treatment in society, be it discriminatory treatment or criminal acts, one of which is rape. Unfortunately, criminal sanctions for perpetrators of rape against persons with disabilities in Indonesia have not been explicitly regulated. Grounded with this phenomenon, this study examines the legal protection for persons with disabilities as victims of the criminal act of rape and sanctions for the perpetrators of the said criminal acts. To achieve these goals, this study was conducted using a normative legal research method with a conceptual approach and a case approach. Legal protection for persons with disabilities is contained in Article 3 and Article 5 Paragraph (2) of Law Number 8 of 2016 which regulates the rights and legal protection for persons with disabilities as victims of criminal acts. Protection for the rape victims takes the form of restitution and rehabilitation assistance. Sanctions for the perpetrators of the criminal act of rape against persons with disabilities have not been regulated strictly. In the Criminal Code, the criminal acts of rape are regulated in general sphere that is in Articles 285, 286, 287, 288. Thus, the legal protection for persons with disabilities aims to safeguard and maintain the persons with disabilities from the criminal acts of rape. In the Cassation Decision Number 736K/PID/2013 PN Cn, the sanction for perpetrators of rape against persons with disabilities is the imposition of sanctions in the provisions of Article 285 of the Criminal Code.

Abstract:

Based on a study of 130 organizations in Florida that deal with survivors of sexual assault, controversies that surround the “rape kit exam”—medical examination for purposes of evidence collection—are identified and discussed. After an overview of the rape kit examination and typical sites and personnel for performing it, the article focuses on issues relative to the exam including the following: (1) evidence that should be collected and why; (2) hospitals as friends or foes; and (3) who can and/or should perform the exam and why. The article concludes with recommendations for improving services to survivors of sexual assault relative to the rape kit exam. Among these are suggestions for standardizing the rape kit and protocol across legal jurisdictions, ceasing routine plucking of victims' public hairs, removal of the site for the exams from hospital emergency departments or creation of separate sections of the department for the sole use of rape victims, simplification and reduction of hospital admitting and record-keeping procedures, centralization of the exam for given geographic areas, specialization of staff who perform the exam, and utilization of trained nurse examiners in place of physicians for conducting the exam.

Purpose – At a time when funding arrangements are under review, the purpose of this paper is to come to a better understanding of victim needs and to inform future developments of services in England and Wales. Design/methodology/approach – This paper is based on qualitative data gathered from a series of interviews with 33 individuals working with victims of crime in one police area in England and Wales. Findings – Better practice and outcomes were associated in respondent’s accounts with the multi-agency working and end to end case management of needs associated with some victims of rape and domestic abuse assessed as high risk of harm. Research limitations/implications – Small-scale qualitative study. Practical implications – It is argued Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) should explore mechanisms for extending such services to more victims of crime and ensuring better co-ordination of service delivery. Originality/value – From October 2014 onwards PCCs are set to take over responsibility for funding victim services in England and Wales. Though not an uncontroversial development, this sets the context for practice with victims to be considered afresh and accordingly this paper explores the needs of victims and how they are met in one police and crime area.

Abstract:

War is an extraordinary, shameful and bloody phenomenon. During the wars that were fought in different countries of the world, people faced sexual violence from their enemy. Unfortunately, this situation currently exists in Ukraine. During the war launched by Russia on February 24, 2022, civilians are killed by firearms, and thousands of public infrastructure facilities (schools, hospitals, kindergartens, social security services, shopping centers, churches, etc.), high-rise and private buildings are destroyed.In addition to firearms, Russian troops-aggressor also use rape as weapon. There are several explanations why sexual violence is a weapon, and they are presented in this article. Rape and violence perpetrated by aggressors during war are often aimed at terrorizing the population, destroying families, humiliating soldiers whose women and children are left behind, and, as the war in Ukraine has shown, abuse and humiliate even elderly men and women, destroy families and communities. In some countries, there were even ideas that rape will change the ethnic composition of the next generation. Crimes related to rape and other types of sexual violence are usually latent. Victims do not want to talk about it, do not want to testify for many reasons: re-traumatization, stigmatization, and publicity. But evidence of Russian war crimes in Ukraine is collected by the International Criminal Court in The Hague, so such crimes must be registered. Victims must have a very strong motivation to testify. In some countries, it is already possible to receive compensation for causing damage. This is a tool that, on the one hand, can stimulate testimony, registration of a sexual crime, and on the other hand, to receive material compensation that will improve the standard of living. Social workers, together with other specialists, must advocate for the possibility of receiving reparations for victims in Ukraine.The article contains an answer to why it is important to document the facts of violence and rape, and which mechanisms of assistance exist in the world for victims. The article highlights importance of the work of specialists, namely social workers, psychologists and lawyers, in providing assistance to victims.This article focuses on the work of social workers in the situation of sexual violence during the war, and points out that, in addition to working on improving the provision of assistance to victims, social workers should learn the experience gained in the war situation in Ukraine and the experience of other countries.

Abstract:

Sexual victimization is typically presented as a gender-based problem involving a female victim and a male offender. Science, policy, and society focus on female victims at the expense of male victims. Male sexual victimization is thus understudied compared with female sexual victimization. By performing a critical interpretive synthesis of research papers, policy documents, and gray literature ( N = 67) published in four electronic databases from January 2000 through September 2017, this article establishes the prevalence of male sexual victims and the causes that underlie the underrepresentation of this group in existing research and current policy. The prevalence rates of male sexual victims vary considerably, with up to 65% of men reporting sexual victimization. The underrepresentation of male victims was found to be rooted in prevailing gender roles and accepted sexual scripts in society, together with rape myths and stereotypical rape scripts. The former prescribes men as the dominant and sexually active gender. The latter denies male sexual victimization and frames women as “ideal victims.” Combined, these prevailing societal perceptions of men, male sexuality, and sexual victimization prevent men from self-identifying as victims and inhibit them from seeking help to cope with the adverse consequences of sexual victimization. Addressing the gender differences in sexual victimization requires societal and political changes that challenge prevailing stereotypical perceptions of sexual victims. Such changes could result in improved support services for male sexual victims.

Abstract:

Background Rape is the most common act of violence against women during wartime which is considered interpersonal, social and political violence because survivors usually suffer from stigma and discrimination in the community. Sexual violence is a serious threat to women’s health. The psychological and medical consequences of rape during the conflict period are not well documented. Therefore, this study investigated the psychological and medical consequences of rape among survivor in the northern Ethiopia conflict, which occurred since 2020–2022. Methods A retrospective cross-sectional survey supplemented with a qualitative data was conducted among survivors of rape recorded until June 2022. Health institutions that provide maternal and child health services in the study area were included. All rape victims who received medical care following the incident were included. Victims who were found in active war areas or rape care recorded before wartime were excluded. To understand the experience of raped women’s psychological consequences related to sexual assault we conducted 23 in-depth interviews. Thematic analysis was used to conduct qualitative interpretation. Results The mean age of the participants was 31.66 (SD ± 20.95) years. One-third of 92(33.9%) of the survivors were diagnosed positive for sexually transmitted infections. Chlamydia 54(58.4%) and HIV 32(34.8%) were the most frequently diagnosed infections. Among the rape survivors, one-tenth 29(10.7%) of them were positive for pregnancy, and induced abortion was done for 13 (44.8%) women who got pregnant due to sexual assault. The armed groups not only have sexual interests but inhumane individuals and consider rape as their way of expressing abjection to civilians. Survivors of raped women are confronted with social rejection and exclusion in the community that aggravates the traumatic process. Because of shame and fear, rape survivors often do not seek help but have to be offered support proactively. The victims claimed that they didn’t able to return to their previous life and considered their future in peril.

Abstract:

Background: Despite the well-known impact of rape on mental health and the widespread problem of rape in South Africa, mental health services for rape victims are scant and not a priority for acute-phase services. Survivors encounter multiple mental health struggles in this period including adherence to the post-exposure prophylaxis drugs to prevent HIV and finding support from important others. We have little information on what mental health is provided, by whom and how it is integrated into the post-rape package of care.Aim: The aim of the study was to do a rapid appraisal of mental health services for rape survivors to gain a better understanding of the current acute and long-term (secondary) mental health services. Method: We conducted a qualitative study using a rapid assessment with a purposive sample of 14 rape survivors and 43 service providers recruited from post-rape sexual assault services in urban and rural Western Cape Province. Data were collected using semi-structured in-depth interviews and observations of survivor sessions with counsellors, nurses and doctors. The data were coded thematically for analysis.Results: Survivors of rape experienced a range of emotional difficulties and presented varying levels of distress and various levels of coping. Receiving support and care from others assisted them, but the poor integration of mental health within post-rape services meant few received formal mental health support or effective referrals. Multiple factors contributed to the poor integration: mental health was not given the same level of priority as other rape services (i.e. clinical care, including forensic management), the inadequate capacity of service providers to provide mental healthcare, including mental health illiteracy, the lack of continuity of care, the poor linkages to ongoing mental healthcare, and the mental health challenges caused by vicarious trauma and compassion fatigue.Conclusion: Providing effective, compassionate mental health services should be seen as essential components of post-rape care. The strengthening of support for providers and linkages to ongoing mental healthcare are essential to improve mental health services within acute post-rape services.

Abstract:

Rape crisis centers (RCCs) were established during the mainstream anti-rape movement in the United States during the 1970s. In the decades that followed, RCCs began to depend on governmental grants to stay open, shifting the antagonistic relationship that existed between many RCCs and state structures. Previous research has conceptualized this RCC institutionalization as a reluctant concession requisite to the continuation of victim services and the anti-rape movement. This article draws upon three years of ethnographic research and 40 interviews at a United States RCC to illustrate how institutionalization facilitated one RCC’s complicity in the expansion of the carceral state. I propose the transformation of this RCC illuminates a sexual assault response “bait and switch” that serves carceral agendas. I reach this conclusion using data drawn from three themes: (1) the outsourcing of the hotline and conversion to criminal-legal victim services, (2) criminal-legal integration that did not expand the influence of the RCC, and (3) the facilitation of the criminalization of victims through a process of net widening. Building from previous research, these findings document the result of criminal-legal integration at one RCC: the expansion of the carceral state into the center, to the detriment of victims and efforts to end sexual assault.

Abstract:

Objective Extant studies indicate that just one characteristic of sexual assault cannot properly represent the whole experience of sexual assault and, especially, the severity of sexual assault. This study aimed to understand the totality of sexual assault experiences and elucidate subtypes of sexual assault victims based on the detailed characteristics of their sexual assault experiences and those relationships with mental health.Methods A total of 255 adult sexual violence victims who used intervention services and a comparison group were included. Information on their sexual assault experiences was gleaned from case records data.Results The following four distinctive profile groups were identified: “Sexual Touching” (19.6%), “Rape/Social Relation” (30.4%), “Intimate Partner Violence (IPV)” (18.8%), and “Rape/Stranger” (31.3%). The subgroups differed in terms of secondary victimization and adverse childhood experiences. The Rape/Social Relation and IPV subgroups most frequently experienced secondary victimization and childhood adversity. The four profile subgroups demonstrated different relationships with mental health outcomes, with a complicated pattern. The Rap/Social Relation and IPV subgroups scored higher on mental health problem screening measures compared to other groups. However, a considerable proportion of victims in the Sexual Touching subgroup also reported suicidal behaviors and self-injury.Conclusion Based on the results, theoretical and clinical implications were discussed.

Abstract:

Abortion or abortus provokatus constitutes a termination of pregnancy before the time of delivery. The objective of the study is to ascertain if the Abortion-related Health Law is a realistic rule based on the health aspects, as well as to analyze how long it should be allowed by the Health Law to perform an abortion according to medical criteria. The study uses a method of normative legal research. It concludes that the Health Law pertaining abortion is a realistic rule based on health aspects. Yet, it is necessary to revise the abortion rules due to rape incidents. The rules permits the abortion if the gestational age is 6 (six) weeks or 40 (forty) days. It is calculated from the first day of the last period. It suggests that the gestational age should be 12 (twelve) weeks or 3 (three) months from the first day of the last period.

AbstrakPada survei yang dilakukan WHO dibeberapa kota besar di Asia pada tahun 1996 di Indonesia ditemukan bahwa pada wanita yang berumur diatas 16 tahun dikota Jakarta dan Surabaya pada 1400 sampel didapatkan 2,7% pernah mengalami perkosaan. Beberapa korban hamil, dan ingin mengakhiri kehamilan. Hukum di Indonesia (KUHP), menjelaskan bahwa semua usaha dalam rangka menghentikan kehamilan adalah suatu tindak pidana dan tidak dipersoalkan apakah indikasi dari pengguguran kandungan tersebut. Setelah adanya UU Kesehatan RI No 23 tahun 1992, barulah abortus provokatus atas indikasi medis mendapatkan payung hukum. Disini dijelaskan bahwa jika abortus dalam rangka menyelamatkan nyawa ibu atau anak diperbolehkan (indikasi medis). Legitimasi abortus provokatus atas indikasi medis saat ini dianggap tidak mencukupi lagi, sehingga diperlukan pula legalisasi indikasi non medis, seperti pada korban pemerkosaan dan child abuse. Dengan keluarnya UU Kesehatan No.36 tahun 2009, maka sudah melegalkan tindakan aborsi pada kehamilan akibat perkosaan.Kata kunci: perkosaan, kehamilan, abortus provokatus, payung hukum, KUHP, UU Kesehatan.AbstractIn the survey conducted by WHO in several major cities in Asia in 1996 in Indonesia found that in women aged over 16 years in the city of Jakarta and Surabaya in 1400 samples were obtained 2.7% had experienced rape.

Abstract:

Concerns about the criminal justice response to rape have prompted the development of victim advocacy services across a range of jurisdictions, yet research evidence about the nature, meaning and value of advocacy remains limited. This article draws upon a study evaluating an innovative advocacy model introduced in Scotland to assist reporting rape to the police. Findings from interviews with nine victims highlight the importance of advocacy that is independent of statutory and criminal justice agencies. However, it is argued that this does not mitigate the need for specialization or reform in the criminal justice response to rape and, further, that the distinction between advocacy at an individual and societal level represents a false dichotomy.

Abstract:

A total of 150 recent victims of physical assault were interviewed about their interactions with police officers and were assessed at approximately one month and six months postattack on three measures of psychological distress. Victims of all three crime types— rape, domestic assault, and nondomestic assault—were found to exhibit similar patterns of response to victimization, including significant declines in symptomatology on two of the three measures across the six-month period. While some police actions were approximately equally distributed across crime types, nondomestic assault victims were significantly less likely to receive information on available intervention resources than victims of the other two types of crime. Furthermore, a strong relationship was found between nature of services received and police mention of service availability, suggesting the importance of the police officer in the information dissemination process.

Abstract:

The rejection of the RKUHP is voiced throughout the country. In the demands of students, the RKUHP was canceled. The emergence of RKUHP became a controversy so there was a lot of resistance from the community. One of the bills is expanding the definition of rape. In RKUHP, rape occurs as long as there is male to female violence. "Including rape and criminal offenses as referred to in paragraph (1) includes acts of: a. Intercourse with someone with his consent, because the person believes that the person is a legitimate husband / wife". Thus reads Article 480 paragraph 2 ". That definition, a husband can rape his wife. With the condition that the wife does not want to have intercourse and the husband will use violence When compared to the Criminal Code used today, there has been a shift in the definition of rape. Because, "rape" in the RKUHP can be done by a legitimate partner. While in the Penal Code, rape occurs when the perpetrators and victims are not bound by marriage. The method used is the use of diction in the written language. Formulation of the problem 1) How is the husband and wife's response to the polemic of RKUHP article 480. 2) How is the use of the rape diction in the Law? The results of the study can be concluded that, the responses of some respondents with the status of husband and wife are not supportive of the ratification of the Act, because there is no word of rape in marital ties, and has been regulated by the law on sexual violence in the household. The use of diction section article 480 in terms of accuracy, accuracy, harmony is not fully applied to the criteria for using diction. In the controversy article 480 verse 2 that uses the word multi-interpretation it should be reviewed. The word rape, including the popular diction, is inappropriate for article 480 paragraph 2. According to the government RKUHP article 480 paragraph 2 is an article that protects women. But the reader's point of view, in the relationship of husband and wife there is no term raping.

Abstract:

Crime or violence directed against women is distinct from crime in general. The characteristics of the crime include women victims, their acts against women's rights, and causing harm in the form of physical, psychological, and/or sexual. A year after Indonesia’s independence, this crime against women was regulated along with other crimes in the Criminal Code (Penal Code) through Act No. 1946. 1 on the Rule of Criminal Law, but not by using a special title with a woman's name. Accordingly, the Criminal Code, which according to history is a Dutch colonial heritage, needs to be reformed to become a better Criminal Code. This paper tries to explain the regulation of violence against women in the form of criminal acts of rape in various countries namely Malaysia, India and the Netherlands. This study is normative legal research with a comparative approach. The author will compare the substance of criminal law in the three Criminal Codes. In doing the comparison, the author focuses on the object of criminal law review, especially on the side of the act and penal sanctions. Based on the study descriptions of several foreign Criminal Codes (Malaysia, India, and the Netherlands), there are several different things in the rape arrangements in the Criminal Codes. The difference is that in Malaysia and India, the Criminal Code does not distinguish between rape (rape) and Cabul (lewd). Only the arrangement is formulated with intercourse with consent. The types of rape in India and Malaysia are more varied than the Dutch, both in terms of the act, the aspect of the perpetrator and the victim aspect. Nevertheless, the Indonesian Criminal Code is simpler than the Dutch Criminal Code. Malaysian Criminal Code has the most serious penal sanction compared to the other foreign countries (India and the Netherland) and Indonesia. The study of these three different laws in these three countries can open our eyes to reformulate the rape which is more extensively formulated from the aspects of the actions and aspects of the victims with reference from the foreign Criminal Code, and this simple study can be an input of legal material to be processed in accordance with the Nation's values Indonesia.
