Abstract
This research aims to indentify and understand the scope of the current regulations governing sexual violence. As well as what regulations are needed so that women get protection from cases of sexual violence that often occur due to gender inequality. This research is a research that uses normative research methods using a qualitative descriptive approach, a conceptual approach and a statutory approach. Then by using primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials to get conclusions that are relevant to the problems at hand. The results showed that the Criminal Code, which is currently one of the references in handling cases of sexual violence, has not been able to cover all problems related to sexual violence. Therefore, additional regulations are needed as legal protection such as the Bill Draft on the Elimination of Sexual Violence which covers sexual violence in a more complex and comprehensive manner regarding sexual violence in Indonesia.
