The type of research design used is Descriptive Design. Data collection in this research is by literature study. Data analysis in this study uses qualitative analysis techniques, namely to find out the problems that arise. Based on the results of the discussion, it was found the fact that the application of sanctions as outlined in Government Regulation in Lieu of Law Number 1 Year 2016 is expected to provide a deterrent effect for pedophile perpetrators by carrying out imprisonment and castration. However, it must be done after going through coordination with the Ministry of Health, because it is feared that it will have a bad impact on health. In addition, there is also no research that proves that perpetrators of sexual violence after castration can have offspring. Some cases were castrated and some were not. The castration sanction is only carried out in cases of obscenity which are classified as severe so that the judge gives a different decision.
