"Based on KPAI complaint data from January to April 2026, 301 people reached out our complaint services through various channels such as chatbots, email, letters, telephone calls, and in-person visits to KPAI offices, totaling 426 cases," said KPAI Chairman Aris Adi Leksono on Monday (5/18/2026).

Of these, 403 cases received psychoeducational services, while 23 other cases were followed up through field supervision, case conferences, mediation, and coordination meetings with relevant stakeholders.

The cases were spread across Jakarta, West Java, Yogyakarta, Aceh, East Java, East Kalimantan, Maluku, East Nusa Tenggara, West Nusa Tenggara, Southeast Sulawesi, North Sulawesi, and North Sumatra.

According to Aris, cases in the child rights protection cluster include issues of children as victims of policies in education, basic health and welfare, education and leisure time, and cultural activities.

Meanwhile, in the special child protection cluster, reported cases are dominated by child victims of physical and/or psychological violence, child victims of sexual crimes, child victims of pornography and cybercrime, and children in conflict with the law as perpetrators.

"In our data, cases are divided into two clusters: the fulfillment of children's rights, with 261 cases, and special child protection, with 165 cases," said Aris.
