JAKARTA (JP): Amid deep concerns over the increasing crimes against artwork, the city police admitted on Tuesday that they had failed to anticipate such crimes as they lacked skilled investigators.

Chief detective of economic affairs Benny Mokalu said the police had failed to actively investigate copyright violations although the law stipulates that such a crime could be investigated even if the victim had not reported it.

Benny said the police were also facing difficulties in investigating violations of intellectual property rights as they lacked funds.

However, he also blamed the public for the rampant copyright violations in the country.
