a part of society groups should not be differentiated to other children who have
normal life, they have a life which is need protection too. The lack of guarantee on
security often causes the raise of criminal victims, such as children harassment

Republic Indonesia said police have function, jobs and duty in protecting society
from every criminal acts, and so arranged on 2002 Regulation number 23 about
child protection , that child should get protection from all types of crime which is
