Greater Jakarta: Man publicly humiliated for sexual assault

izky Azmi, 24, was publicly humiliated recently after allegedly being caught sexually assaulting a female passenger on a commuter line (KRL) train traveling from Duri Station, West Jakarta, to Manggarai Station, South Jakarta.

Rizky had to stand holding a sign saying “I am a sex pest on KRL” for two hours under the supervision of a security guard in Manggarai Station. Before the punishment, he had his face slapped by his alleged victim.

“The victim took the train from Duri on Thursday evening. At the time, she had to stand. The suspect got on the train at the next station, Tanah Abang, and stood behind the victim,” said Manggarai Station Police officer Riki Ricad on Friday as quoted by Kompas.com.

Initially, the suspect touched the victim’s breasts but she tolerated it, thinking that it might have been done unintentionally. However, when Rizky did it again for a second time she began to scream and slapped his face.

Train security staff immediately seized the suspect before he was beaten by angry passengers.
