JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said that its surveillance tools were actually outdated for catching corruptors. Because of this condition, the KPK asked Commission III of the DPR to provide a large budget so that procurement could be carried out.

This was conveyed by Deputy Chairman of the KPK Fitroh Rohcahyanto in a meeting with Commission III of the DPR at the DPR building, Senayan, Jakarta, Wednesday, January 28. He said that enforcement activities, including OTT, were often hampered by the number of human resources (HR) to the sophistication of tools.

"What is it, in fact, the biggest obstacle in the KPK other than the lack of human resources, yes, give us sophisticated tools," said Fitroh in the meeting.

With a new, more sophisticated tool, Fitroh guarantees that silent operations and active enforcement can be more trengginas. "So that OTT is not just one a month," he said.

"Less sophisticated, sir, less sophisticated. This is not up to date," he continued without elaborating.

As for this sophisticated tool, said Fitroh, it can be realized if Commission III of the DPR RI approves the increase in the budget.

"So if the members of Commission III give a large budget to buy tools, maybe OTT is more massive (can happen, ed)," said the former Director of Prosecution of the KPK.

Meanwhile, KPK Chairman Setyo Budiyanto said that OTT was always there. "Because that is also one of our targets, but once again it is not a forced target," said Setyo.

"The target is in accordance with the information we get," he concluded.
