Pedophiles

Indonesia will begin chemically castrating convicted pedophiles in an effort to combat child sex abuse. President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo signed a presidential directive to castrate child sex offenders. “This regulation will resolve a significant number of crisis caused by sexual violence against children. I condemn violence against children as an extraordinary crime, as it harms personal life and growth of the victims,” Jokowi said. “It needs special prosecution because this kind of delinquency also disturbs the safety and peace of society.”
