JAKARTA - The Ministry of Religion's Halal Product Guarantee Administration (BPJPH) revoked the halal certificate for fruit juice products branded Nabidz because it was found that there was a violation in the halal certification process.
The Head of BPJPH of the Ministry of Religion, Aqil Irham, said that based on the investigations carried out, it was found that unscrupulous business actors and assistants to the Halal Product Process (PPH) deliberately manipulated the data for submitting halal Nabidz certification.
"For violations committed by business actors with the initials BY, BPJPH has given sanctions in the form of revocation of the halal certificate with the number ID311100037606120523 with the Jus Buah Wine product starting August 15, 2023," said Aqil in his statement in Jakarta, Antara, Wednesday, August 23.
Meanwhile, for the violation committed by the PPH Companion with the initials AS, BPJPH has imposed sanctions with the revocation of the PPH Companion Registration Number for data manipulation and products.
The name Nabidz previously registered fruit juice products. However, it was later discovered that the owner uploaded an information photo that they produce wine drinks that are halal certified.
Aqil said BPJPH had dispatched a supervisory team after complaints and viral news in the community regarding claims about halal wine Nabidz.
Aqil emphasized that the product with the Nabidz trademark certified by BPJPH is a fruit juice or juice product.
Jus or fruit juice, he said, is a type of product that can be certified through a self-declare (business actor statement) mechanism and entering one of the products is not risky.
"However, based on the results of the Supervisory Team's search, the verification process through this assistance was not carried out by AS as the PPH Assistant," said Aqil.
In fact, according to Aqil, the US has learned that the process of making Nabidz fruit juice is through a fermentation process. If you know this, the companion can stop the process and advise business actors to register for regular halal certification.
"Because if there is fermented, it means that there is a chemical process carried out so that it requires a laboratory test that must be carried out by the Halal Inspection Institute (LPH)," he said.
However, the US is known to have even manipulated halal certification registration data. "This is clearly not justified. As a sanction, we have revoked the assistance permit of US Brothers," said Aqil.
Meanwhile, an individual business actor with the initials BY committed a violation in the form of inclusion of halal labels on different products in halal certificates. Halal labels for wine juice products are deliberately listed in Nabidz wine products.
"If business actors still want to sell their products, then according to the provisions, they must include non- halal information in their products. Also, what percentage of alcohol content is," said Aqil.
For this incident, Aqil appealed to all parties to comply with all applicable laws and regulations. This is because halal certification is not just a mechanism for fulfilling administrative obligations, but as a form of commitment to regulations that must be obeyed and can be legally accounted for.
"This is very important for us to emphasize considering that halal certificates are not just administrative status, but as a standard that must be applied continuously, so that products are strictly maintained in a consistent manner," said Aqil.
