JAKARTA - Former Deputy Head of the National Nutrition Agency (BGN), Sony Sonjaya, stated that he was ready to become a Justice Collaborator (JC) in the case of alleged corruption related to the Nutrition Fulfillment Service Unit (SPPG) which is being handled by the Attorney General's Office (Kejagung) RI.
The statement was made through his lawyer, Krisna Murti. According to him, Sony's willingness to become a JC has been stated in the Report of the Examination (BAP) at the Attorney General's Office.
"Mr. Sony stated that he was ready to become a Justice Collaborator. This determination has been expressed in the BAP at the Prosecutor's Office," said Krisna, Friday, June 5, 2026.
Krisna explained that this step was taken to help investigators uncover the case transparently and deny allegations that his client was the mastermind behind the alleged practice of buying and selling SPPG points in the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) Program.
According to him, Sony is ready to provide information related to a number of parties suspected of being involved in the case, including figures from the executive and legislative circles.
However, until now, his party has not been willing to reveal the identities of the parties concerned to the public.
"What is clear, according to my client, this case involves a number of figures from the executive and legislative circles. My client is ready to open everything," he said.
In the near future, said Krisna, his party will submit a formal application to the Attorney General's Office so that the status of Justice Collaborator for Sony can be considered. They hope that this cooperation can help uncover all the facts related to the case.
"We want this case to be clearly open so that all parties responsible can be held accountable according to applicable laws," he said.
Previously, the Attorney General's Office named three people as suspects in the case of alleged corruption in the Free Nutritional Meal Program management. They are former BGN Head Dadan Hindayana and two former Deputy BGN Heads, namely Sony Sonjaya and Lodewyk Pusung.
"As a suspect in the investigation of alleged corruption in the management of the Free Nutritious Meal Program at the National Nutrition Agency from 2025 to 2026," said the Director of Investigation (Dirdik) of the Attorney General's Office, Syarief Sulaeman Nahdi, at a press conference in South Jakarta.
The three suspects were charged with Article 603 in conjunction with Article 20 letter a or c of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 18 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Corruption Crimes as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001.
