Police have officially detained and named Ahmad Syah Farhan as a suspect in a case of alleged fraud and embezzlement of umrah travel funds. The action has affected many prospective pilgrims who had their trips to the Holy Land canceled.
Rosiani, one of the victims, said she suffered losses of up to hundreds of millions of rupiah. She was supposed to depart on June 16 with her husband, parents, and unborn child, but received news of the cancellation on May 27 without a clear reason.
The victims went to the Hanania office at Tower 88, Kota Kasablanka, South Jakarta on May 29. Farhan met them directly, apologized, and offered two options: rescheduling over six months or refunds within a maximum of two years.
Farhan stated he had liquidated personal assets as a means of responsibility. He also cited the company's financial issues that had been redirected to another unit.
