Jakarta – The Tangerang Police have declared RD, 16, a suspect for allegedly sexually abusing a minor, and charged him with violating the child protection law.

"We have named him a suspect," Tangerang Chief Detective Comr. Shinto Silitonga said on Friday as quoted by tempo.co.

RD allegedly spread a six-minute video of him kissing his girlfriend, NA, 16, a student of Rajeg Senior high school in Tangerang via cell phone. The kissing scene showed the young couple, wearing their school uniforms, kissing in an apparently empty class room.

Shinto said he had questioned RD's and NA's friends and family. "All of the testimonies pointed to one person, RD," Shinto said.

Shinto added that the investigation had been launched after the parents of NA filed a report against RD to the police after the video began spreading. "The victim's family felt ashamed and felt that their child had fallen victim to sexual abuse," Shinto said.
