We discuss possible sgoldstino interpretation of the observation, reported by HyperCP collaboration, of three {sigma}{sup +}{yields}p{mu}{sup +}{mu}{sup -} decay events with dimuon invariant mass 214.3 MeV within detector resolution. We find that this interpretation is consistent in models with (i) parity conservation in sgoldstino interactions, (ii) pseudoscalar sgoldstino P of mass 214 MeV and heavier scalar sgoldstino, and (iii) low supersymmetry breaking scale, {radical}(F)=2.5-60 TeV. In these models, sgoldstino can be observed in decays K{sup +}{yields}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup 0}P, K{sub L}{yields}{pi}{pi}P and K{sub S}{yields}{pi}{pi}P at the branching ratios of at least of order 10{sup -12}, 10{sup -8} and 10{sup -11}, respectively. The model can be probed also at e{sup +}e{sup -} colliders in the channels e{sup +}e{sup -}{yields}{gamma}P and e{sup +}e{sup -}{yields}e{sup +}e{sup -}P, where the cross section is likely to be in the range 1 pb-5 ab.
