On September 4, the chief of the National Police narcotics division, Col. Wilhelmus Laturette, commenting the fact that some drug traffickers have begun recruiting young Indonesian girls as smugglers and dealers said the death penalty might also be "useless." "The country needs police officers and judges who can ensure that a trafficker stays in jail for at least a full 4-year term. Here, traffickers get out in 3 months," he said.
