In Article 86 it is written, “Families experiencing Family Crisis due to sexual irregularities are required to report their family members to the Agency that handles Family Resilience or rehabilitation institutions appointed by the Government to receive treatment and / or care”.

Furthermore, Article 87 which reads almost in line with Article 86, emphasizes that every adult who experiences sexual irregularities must report to the Agency that handles Family Resilience or rehabilitation institutions to receive treatment and / or care.

In addition, Article 88 states that the rehabilitation institutions referred to in Article 86 and Article 87 are organized by government agencies or the community appointed by the Agency that handles Family Resilience.

Whereas Article 89 states, “Provisions regarding the implementation of mandatory reporting, rehabilitation for Families experiencing Family Crisis are regulated by Government Regulation”.
