Time to Settle the Sense of Security.A Step Toward the Fulfillment of Right: for Women Victim of Sexual Violence in May 1998 Riot.Documentation Report: Special Rapporteur Of National Commission on Violence Against Women Regarding Sexual Violence in May 1998 Riot And Its Impacts
In order to fulfill the ethical responsibility of Komnas Perempuan and to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the May 1998 Tragedy, Komnas Perempuan has formed a Special Rapporteur on Sexual Violence in May 1998 Riot and Its Impacts.1 Special Rapporteur documented on how far the women sexual violence victims rights to the truth, justice, and recovery are fulfilled after ten years, also how far the State has completed it’s responsibility in fulfilling their rights. This documentation was meant to complete the previous credible investigations findings on May 1998, moreover giving recommendation to the advance of rights fulfillment violence victims in general, and women sexual violence victims of May-1998 Riot in particular. The Special Rapporteur findings in the documentation reinstate the existence of women sexual violence victims, including rape in a series of Riots in May 1998 in Jakarta and some other big cities in Indonesia. The victims were mainly Indonesian Chinese ethnic women with age ranged from 5 to 50 years old, and with any marital status. Rape also happened in the form of gang rape or grouped rape, further not limited to the penis penetration but also by forcefully put things into vagina, and these all happened whether in their own house or even in the public areas. This reinstatement has become the important key to end the endless controversies upon the existence of sexual violence in the Riot-which all this time merely left unsolved among the society.
