The Sukabumi City Police Task Force (Satgas) found Minyakita's cooking oil product which did not match what was stated in the packaging, during a surprise inspection (sidak) activity at the Warehouse Market, Sukabumi City, West Java.
"Our investigation is in collaboration with the Local Metrology UPTD of Sukabumi City to randomly check the contents of oil packaging in Minya Kita products. As a result, the volume of oil in each package is below with the volume listed on the packaging," said Sukabumi City Police Criminal Investigation Unit Head AKP Tatang Mulyana quoted by ANTRA, Thursday, March 13.
According to Tatang, from the results of the re-agency of Minya Kita, it turned out that the contents were not appropriate. For example, Minya Kita packaging one liter in fact only between 750 milliliters and 800 milliliters.
The inspection carried out by the Sukabumi City Police, Sukabumi City, was carried out after previously the Minister of Agriculture of the Republic of Indonesia Andi Amran Sulaiman found that the contents of cooking oil in Minya Kita products were not in accordance with the provisions.
"We suspect that Minya Kita's products, which are not suitable, are still circulating in the community. Inspections like this will continue to be carried out in an effort to protect consumers," he added.
