Indonesia’s Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has stated it will not duplicate the investigation into alleged corruption surrounding the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) program at the National Nutrition Agency. This decision comes as the Attorney General's Office is already actively handling the case. The KPK clarified it will respect the ongoing legal process led by the Attorney General’s office and avoid parallel investigations into the same allegations. This move aims to streamline efforts to address corruption and prevent jurisdictional conflicts between the two key law enforcement bodies. The MBG program, intended to provide nutritious meals to schoolchildren, has been plagued by allegations of embezzlement and irregularities. The Attorney General’s Office initiated its investigation earlier, focusing on potential misuse of funds allocated for the program. The KPK’s statement signals a coordinated approach to tackling corruption within the government.
