Kapanlagi.com - Doctor and content creator Dr. Richard Lee has once again caught the public's attention after stepping in to assist two victims of alleged sexual harassment committed by a Kiai in Bekasi. During a press conference in Athena, Kemang, South Jakarta, on Thursday (25/9) night, Richard emphasized his commitment to providing full legal assistance.
It all started from a podcast that Richard held with the victims, referred to as Z and S. Initially, he had no idea about their dark stories.

"Actually, today started from a podcast. At first, I really didn't know, but as it went on in the podcast, what was conveyed by the victim was very excessive in my opinion," Richard stated.

In their testimonies, the victims claimed to have been abused since childhood by a certain cleric known in Bekasi.
"One was his adopted child, raised since childhood, from the age of 16. The other is a biological niece, still has a family connection. Both were abused from a young age," Richard said.

In fact, the victim was threatened to send indecent videos in order to continue receiving tuition fees and pocket money. Hearing that heartbreaking story, Richard admitted that his blood was 'boiling'.

"This behavior is very depraved. So I asked for permission from them as well, to provide legal assistance, and they agreed. If we don't pay attention, this will drag on, and I am sure the victims are not just these two," he asserted.

He also deployed a team of lawyers to monitor the case until it is resolved. Richard's step is not merely a humanitarian impulse, but also to uphold the good name of Islam.
"I just converted to Islam, initially I didn't want to bring this issue to the media because I was afraid of embarrassing Islam. But actually, if this is covered up, that is what will cause damage. This is not Islam's fault, it is the individuals who have problems," he said.

Now, from the information obtained, the Kiai in question has been made a suspect and detained by the police. The victim's legal team, Jefri Simatupang, stated that they will contact the police to verify this and continue to monitor the case until it is resolved.
"We are applying the Child Protection Law and the TPKS Law. The minimum threat is 5 years in prison, and it can go up to 12, 15, or even 20 years," Jefri explained.

He added that although the incident occurred while the victims were still children, the power relationship serves as strong evidence to implicate the perpetrator.
Richard Lee assured that both victims are now under full protection, including safe accommodation. "Anyone who dares to threaten or intervene with them will face me. This is not a family disgrace, this is a sexual crime. If the perpetrator's family demands reimbursement for expenses incurred, tell them to note the receipts, I will pay in full," he said.

The case currently being handled by the Bekasi Metro Police is under further investigation. Richard hopes that his firm actions will have a deterrent effect and prevent new victims.
"I want this to serve as a lesson, to deter, and to ensure there are no other victims. If left unchecked, this is very dangerous," he concluded.
