MEMBER of the National Police Commission (Kompolnas) Poengky Indarti appreciates the steps taken by the Chief of Police General Pol. Listyo Sigit Prabowo to establish the Directorate of Women and Children’s Crimes (PPA) and the Directorate of Cyber Investigation (Ditressiber) at the Regional Police level.
In his statement in Jakarta, Sunday (22/9), he said that the Chief of Police has long been committed to strengthening and developing the Police, especially for important issues, one of which is protecting women and children from the dangers of violence.
The commitment, he said, is one of the efforts of the Police to protect vulnerable groups from various violence that continues to increase. The formation of the PPA Directorate is awaited because of the increasing cases of human trafficking where the main victims are women and children.
