I have a theory that Hide is involved in this set up. It was shown throughout TG that Hide was super smart and was always one step ahead of the game.

When he meets Ken in the underground, he has this moment of relief where they both finally open up and then Ken blacks out, wakes up with blood in his mouth and continues on to die from Arima. Now, why would Hide approach a monstrous looking Ken without any precautions? I think that he brought some source of food for Ken and then fled. It was also shown that Hide was in the talks with the higher ups of the CCG. It's possible he worked out a plan with the director to "fix" Ken/contain him (because Hide knows the CCG plans to just kill him). So he offers up this idea to the director and Hide follows Ken, waiting until the moment for Ken to be defeated/kidnapped.

TL;DR: Hide is smart, makes a deal with CCG to use Ken/save his life and then meets Ken in the underground, opening up to him, giving him some human flesh and fleeing back to the CCG, letting Arima defeat Ken and create him into Haise.
