Women planning to join Police force in Indonesia
have been urged to keep their virginity.
According to Indonesia Police recruitment website, a
mandatory physical virginity test will be conducted
on all females to ensure their hymen is still intact
before they can be qualified to join the force.
Human Rights Activists have called on the
Indonesian government to get rid of the old practice
because it is a form of gender-based violence.
Those who had gone through the mandatory virginity
test say it is very traumatic and painful.
"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.' –
said a female police officer
Very strange!
