The National Commission on Violence Against Women (Komnas Perempuan) recorded that throughout 2025, there were 24,472 reported cases of sexual violence in Indonesia.

This figure is based on reporting data and Komnas Perempuan’s records compiled in its 2025 annual report (Catahu).

By category, technology-facilitated sexual violence—also known as online sexual violence (KSBE)—was the most reported, with 4,873 cases.

Other most common categories included sexual harassment, with 1,447 cases, and rape/sexual intercourse/sexual exploitation of girls, totaling 1,141 cases.

Beyond these three categories, reported cases were all below 1,000.

In fact, certain types—such as forced sterilization, forced contraception, and marital rape—remain underreported.

Komnas Perempuan noted that some categories of sexual violence still lack data. This reflects limitations in the data collection system, including the incomplete use of classifications under the Sexual Violence Crime Law (TPKS), with some cases still recorded under other legal provisions.

“The recording system is not yet fully aligned with the classification of forms of violence regulated under the TPKS Law,” the report states.

This also includes cases that are still broadly classified and have not yet been grouped or specified, such as sexual harassment and other TPKS categories.

Below is the breakdown of reported sexual violence cases in Indonesia by category in 2025, ranked from highest to lowest:

Technology-facilitated sexual violence (KSBE): 4,873 cases
Sexual harassment: 1,447 cases
Sexual intercourse/sexual exploitation of children: 1,141 cases
Physical sexual harassment: 858 cases
Sexual exploitation: 482 cases
Rape: 359 cases
Non-physical sexual harassment: 157 cases
Forced abortion: 80 cases
Indecent acts: 74 cases
Domestic sexual violence (marital rape): 74 cases
Incest: 39 cases
Sexual slavery: 26 cases
Abortion: 24 cases
Forced marriage: 14 cases
Human trafficking for sexual exploitation: 11 cases
Pornography: 8 cases
Sexual torture: 4 cases
Forced contraception: 2 cases
Forced prostitution: 2 cases
Forced sterilization: 1 case
Acts violating decency: 0 cases
Money laundering related to sexual violence crimes (TPPU TPKS): 0 cases
Other TPKS categories: 14,796 cases.

As a note, the data presented may not fully capture the total number of sexual violence cases in Indonesia, as many victims still face barriers to reporting, along with other limiting factors.
