Maybe this is not the only one sad story we hear. Maybe this is not also the only story of how women are regarded as being inferior and weak. But this is the time we are open minded, listen and do: sexual violence must be stopped!
That night, my Twitter timeline mengarus profusely. Hashtag #NyalaUntukYuyun first time I see from twitter @kartikajahja, singer My body is my authority. Browse through one at a time tweets from the hashtag, I arrived at a local news media were told about Yuyun, a girl 14 years old woman who was found dead in tragic circumstances after being raped by 14 men in Bengkulu.
The perpetrators are still young, the oldest 24 years of age, the youngest age is still 16 years old. Under the influence of liquor, they raped and then end the life of the girl who just came home from school this by slamming a chair over his head Yuyun. Yuyun body was dumped into a ravine to eliminate the evidence.
The perpetrators are mostly caught has also been sentenced: 15 years imprisonment. When they escape from confinement, their age was over 40 years old and free to roam in the community. For some, the decision is considered fair or not. In my opinion, regardless of the score, unable to restore the lives of Yuyun.
14 men. Fourteen. Man. With the power of manhood are so strong, I'm sure when it Yuyun stricken by fear. No matter how strong he was struggling, lonely rubber plantation village Kasie Kasubun, Bengkulu, as if to drown the danger at hand. Yuyun was dying, along with hundreds or even thousands of cases of rape that led to take the lives of the women who became impingement lust depraved men.
#NyalaUntukYuyun Not only for a Yuyun, nor just for those who raise the sunken case, to the surface. But #NyalaUntukYuyun gives us an awareness that sexual violence against women and children, are all around us. Nobody wished these cases happen to our loved ones, but we can not close our eyes that women and children in particular, are considered inferior and empun prey for sexual gratification uncontrollably.
Yuyun case and thousands of other cases, shows a dark alley how sexual violence should be stopped now. Whoever the culprit, the punishment will not be able to treat the timeless family's sadness and restore the lives that they kill for the sake of momentary lust. The perpetrators of sexual violence has claimed the future, act as if the angel of death wrapped in the human body.
Currently Yuyun gone. But that does not mean we helped put an end to this struggle. Stopping sexual violence is not just the task of Kartika John and colleagues Collective Betina, nor stopped when hashtag #NyalaUntukYuyun no longer be trending topic. It is my duty, your job and duty of all people who feel this is so important to be voiced.
Sexual violence must be stopped now!
