Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 10
Abstract
In today's world, the sustainability of children's lives, growth, and development is often threatened by actions that degrade human dignity. One of the most disturbing forms of violation of human dignity is cases of sexual harassment against children. Children are particularly vulnerable to acts of cruelty and sexual crimes. Perpetrators of sexual violence often pose a significant threat to children, even though they are aware of the legal consequences. The purpose of this writing is to explore the criminal liability for the actions of perpetrators of sexual harassment against children using a juridical-normative method. The research findings indicate that the criminal liability for sexual harassment against children can be attributed to individuals or the perpetrators themselves. This responsibility is not exempt from the burden of proof, as the elements of criminal liability must be established. Furthermore, it is crucial to consider aspects of criminal liability, such as the ability to be held accountable, guilt, and the absence of legal excuses.
