Ahmad Baharuddin was reported by Husnil Labib, a resident of Mangunsari, Kedungwaru District, Tulungagung, East Java. The report of alleged embezzlement and fraud was received at the Tulungagung Police on June 23 at 21.27 WIB. The report was recorded and printed with the number STTLPM/92/VI/2026/SPKT dated June 26, 2026.

Previously reported, Husnil admitted that he wanted to own and help the community through the MBG program. Husnil's message was clearly captured by the man who claimed to be the closest person to Ahmad Baharudin. The man asked for money worth Rp. 50 million so that Husnil could get the MBG 'kitchen point' as a BGN condition. "Because the Deputy Regent Ahmad Baharuddin is the guarantor, the money of Rp. 5 0 million is confirmed as the dowry of the kitchen point, I transferred it to the Abdi Nusantara Foundation," said Husnil Labib to reporters at the Tulungagung Police, Thursday, June 25.

Until this news was released, the Acting Regent of Tulungagung, Ahmad Baharudin, had not answered questions asked through his mobile phone since this afternoon.
