JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) hopes that trading influence or trading influence and bribery in the private sector will be accommodated in the revision of Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Eradication of Corruption Crimes.
This hope was conveyed by the Chairman of the KPK Setyo Budiyanto in response to the public hearing (RDPU) related to the Tipikor Law held on Monday, May 11. This activity was held after the Constitutional Court (MK) decided that the calculation of state losses could only be carried out by the Financial Audit Agency (BPK).
"Yes, the hope is that there are several things that have not been criminalized. Among other things, the problem that I described about trading influence, (trade, ed) the influence of the post and then the private sector bribe," Setyo told reporters, quoted Friday, May 22.
Setyo said these two issues are part of the United Nations Convention against Corruption or United Nation Convention Anticorruption (UNCAC) which has been ratified by Indonesia through Law Number 7 of 2006. However, now these two issues have not been included in the anti-corruption regulation.
"So I think we are proposing, the documents have been submitted to the Ministry of Law," he said.
The DPR Baleg has held a RDPU in the context of monitoring the Tipikor Law. Chairman of the DPR Baleg RI Bob Hasan said this discussion was important to ensure legal certainty in the enforcement of corruption crimes.
"This is very important because lately, in addition to the fact that the state must enforce the law, yes, or the law itself must be present, yes, which fulfills the sense of justice that is legally certain," said Bob Hasan in the RDPU with a number of experts at the DPR/MPR building, Senayan, Jakarta, Monday, May 18.
"So if we talk about state losses, then this is an interest that is a discourse for all people, whether it's people in the DPR, law enforcement yes in this case our legal structure, the National Police, the Attorney General's Office, the Supreme Court, and so on," he continued.
Bob also said that the DPR RI also carried out a study on harmonizing the new criminal code. Including regarding Articles 2 and 3 of the Tipikor Law with Articles 603 and 604 of the Criminal Code.
