Attorney general names three former BGN leaders as suspects in MBG case

The Attorney General's Office named Dadan Hindayana and two deputies as suspects in alleged corruption in the Free Nutritious Meals Program on Wednesday, June 3, 2026.

The three suspects are former National Nutrition Agency head Dadan Hindayana and two former deputies, Sony Sonjaya and Lodewyk Pusung. They are accused of manipulating verification of SPPG partners so that affiliated foundations received billions of rupiah in daily incentives.

Investigators are also examining alleged markups in goods and services procurement at BGN. The purchases included 21,821 electric motorcycles worth Rp1 trillion, 32,000 pairs of shoes, 31,000 tablets, and 5,400 75-inch televisions.

President Prabowo Subianto removed Dadan Hindayana from his post on Tuesday, June 2, 2026, to strengthen program transparency. Attorney General investigators are still calculating the total alleged profits obtained by the suspects.
