Man tried for raping girl

JAKARTA (JP): An employee of a maid placement agency has been
indicted at the Central Jakarta District Court for raping a 14-
year-old girl.

The defendant, Encon Yusroni, 26, raped Nur Hayati on the
premises of the placement agency, Darma Nusantara Foundation, on
Jl. Letjen Suprapto, Senen, on Aug. 22 last year, prosecutor Rudi
Yulianto said.

"The victim temporarily stayed in the office while she was
looking for job as a housemaid," Rudi said.

He said the defendant, who is married, forced the victim to
move from her room into other room and then raped her.

Nur tried to fight Yusroni off, but he proved to be too strong
for her, he said.

Rudy charged the defendant under Article 287 (1) of the
Criminal Code, which carries a maximum punishment of nine years
in jail. (jun)
