According to Human Rights Watch, the organization fighting to get the practice abolished - female police recruits who make only 3% of the country's police force, are being forced to take 'virginity test' before they begin training.
The Indonesia police recruitment website says, ‘All women who want to become policewomen should keep their virginity."
The female police officers who have undergone this test, which examines them to make sure their hymens are still intact, say its ‘painful, traumatic and really upsetting’ and are asking that it be stopped.
"I feared that after they performed the test I would not be a virgin any more. It really hurt. My friend even fainted because … it really hurt, really hurt.’ a recruit told HRWHuman Rights Watch say they are working with the government to get rid of the practice as its ‘discriminatory and a form of gender-based violence’.

Dry!

This is really inhuman act, it's very annoying to hear this kind of ill-treat. Virginity or not what will that has to do with the job?
Make una no bother to argue with bishop, he needs attention. Bishop I hail ooo
Na wa ooo god have mercy lindiway love u
That's a very dirty comment coming from someone who calls himself a bishop! How is something truamatic, painful and a form of sexual violence against women and women alone 'cool and interesting'? Why don't you allow people in authority to stick a thin rod into your thing to check if you've ever contracted an std before? See if you'll find the idea and procedure "cool and interesting"
You're making a whole lot of sense there Onyx!
What we will not hear kwa
Neks you are very stupid! So because Indonesia is a Muslim country then automatically it's a Muslim thing Abi? Oya na Honduras where two sisters were murdered is a Xtian country! What do you have to sat about that?
According to Indonesia law, NO. are u answered? So stop d fucking and join d Indonesia police force or quit and launch ur fucking ministry. Very simple matter
this is not good ,ki lo de ?
They use eggs in those days to test a woman's virginity but I can't say about now but I think d best instrument to use is d**k
Lol very funny
You do realize Indonesians practice a whole lot of religions right?gush people like u...smh the sad part is that your type make up a good number of the population
If you had statistics from other countries within the military and paramilitary concerning rape cases on military women by their colleagues, you may understand what this govt are trying to do.
To rape a virgin, you may need to be extra brutal and there is no hiding the rape nor its immediate effects on the lady.
You may be a virgin before being recruited but I do not see it stated anywhere that you must stay a virgin.
Watch out! comments from ladies. You can easily detect those who are virgin & those who are not.
MY VIEW:
I dnt like and support virginity test. Even,along the process they can be disvirgin. what if the hymen is broken?
Every Human is empower with capability & ability to do anything on the earth. Why then must I be measure by what is under me.
#ChangeThisLaw!
And d men are free 2 join d police force as virgins or non-virgins. What a world against women!!!!!
