olice arrested on Thursday a man suspected of sexually assaulting his 16-year-old household assistant in Beji, Depok, West Java.

The victim reported the assault to the community leader, provoking the anger of local residents.

Community unit (RW) 06 leader, Imas, said the same thing had happened a year earlier with another victim.

Beji Police chief Comr. Yenny Anggraini said officers had moved quickly to detain the suspect, identified as TM, to avoid vigilante mobs.

“We have taken the suspect to Beji Police headquarters for further questioning,” said Yenny as quoted by Tribunnews.com

According to Yenny, the victim had worked at TM’s house for three days.

The victim recalled the suspect asking them to watch a pornographic movie together.

“He wanted me to sleep with him, but I refused. He threatened me and confiscated my phone and clothes, but I escaped and told the neighbors.” (jlm)
