        "summary": "Indonesian DPR member Uya Kuya has denied social media claims that he owns 750 free nutritious meal kitchens (MBG), labelling them as hoaxes and reporting ten accounts to Metro Jaya Police for spreading false information. The politician, from the National Mandate Party, stated that operating such facilities requires complex permits, making the accusations implausible, and suspects they aim to discredit President Prabowo Subianto's priority programme. This legal action follows a traumatic incident where his home was ransacked in August 2025 due to similar misinformation, with the report registered under electronic information crime laws.",
        "content": "<p>Member of Commission IX of the House of Representatives, Surya Utama\nor Uya Kuya, stated that reports on social media claiming he owns 750\nfree nutritious meal kitchens (MBG) are hoaxes. According to this\npolitician from the National Mandate Party, the accusation is\nimplausible due to the difficulty in obtaining permits to manage\nnutritional fulfilment service units (SPPG). Uya stated he does not own\na single MBG kitchen. \u201cPeople are making hoax news saying I have 750\nkitchens. It\u2019s like they think opening a kitchen is as easy as selling\ncilok in front of a school; it\u2019s not that simple,\u201d said Uya at the DPR\ncomplex in Jakarta on Tuesday, 21 April 2026. Uya suspects the\nallegations are intended to slander him and tarnish the priority\nprogramme of President Prabowo Subianto. Uya admitted to reporting ten\nsocial media accounts that spread the news to Metro Jaya Police because\nhe feels harmed. He took this legal step because he does not want to\nbecome a target of mob anger like when his house was ransacked in August\n2025. According to Uya, reporting to the police is a way to clarify the\naccusations and anticipate the hoax spreading further due to\nmisunderstandings. \u201cI remember the incident yesterday; it was traumatic.\nEven my house was ransacked because of circulating hoax news,\u201d he said.\nHead of Public Relations Division of Metro Jaya Police, Commissioner\nBudi Hermanto, confirmed that Uya Kuya has reported the dissemination of\nfalse news regarding the ownership of 750 MBG kitchens. \u201cYes, it\u2019s true\n(there is a report), dissemination of false news,\u201d said Budi as quoted\nfrom Antara. Based on gathered information, the report has been\nregistered with number STTP\/B\/2746\/SPKT\/POLDA METRO JAYA on 18 April\n2026 at 22:10 WIB. In the report, Uya Kuya reported regarding alleged\ncriminal acts of information and electronic transactions under Law\nNumber 1\/2024 on the Second Amendment to Law Number 11\/2008 on\nInformation and Electronic Transactions as referred to in Article 51\nParagraph (1) in conjunction with Article 35 and\/or Article 263 of the\nCriminal Code and\/or Article 264 of the Criminal Code on 18 April\n2026.<\/p>",
