"Then we work based on images that are not yet complete. We have years of everyone involved, all their plans, even the kind of drugs we don't know yet, "he said.
"That's when we ask for cooperation with the national police. Operationally we deem very worthy and in line with the guidelines of our work at that time, "added Commissioner Colvin.
"The question as to why they were not allowed to return to Australia, we could not dictate Indonesia authorities how they deal with serious crimes in the country," he said.
Komsioner Colvin added, "Similarly you will not wish the police would dictate Indonesia AFP how we handle serious crime in Australia".
He asserted could not guarantee that events like the Bali Nine scenarios will not happen again in the future.
