the process of law enforcement toward children doing morality criminal act is
basically the same with the process of law enforcement in general but in the
process of law enforcement towards children there must be a speciality, this
process of law enforcement needs law upholders who really know and understand
children. The law upholders must be assisted by a social consular and the result
must be written in the report of social research, in the process of the court session
the children must be accompanied by their parent, legal counsel and sosial
counselor. Sometimes, there is opinion difference between the judge and the
public prosecutor in giving punishment to children. The abstacle is that the law
upholders sometimes don’t know much about children that there is not enough
means and infrastructure and that sometimes the victim is ashamed to tell what
really happens. It is suggested that there should be a coordination from the
beginning among the law upholders who understand children and there is a special
room to do the court session of children.
