Abstract

Granting of restitution to children is part of the responsibility of the perpetrator based on a court decision that has legal force. This has the aim of protecting children’s rights to live, grow, develop and participate optimally in society without any psychological pressure. The existence of children’s rights as victim of sexual violence has not been fully fulfilled, because in reality restitution is often not carried out properly. This is caused by several factors, such as the lack of awareness of the perpetrators of their responsibilities, the difficulty in obtaining sufficient evidence or information, and the lack of supervision and law enforcement regarding the implementation of restitution. This study aimed whether children as the victim of sexual violence have the right to receive restitution, and how are efforts to provide restitution for children as victims of sexual violence cases.
