85 Hanania Group Partners Report Alleged Umrah Fraud to Police

Eighty-five partners affiliated with Hanania Group (PT Hazanah Tama) have filed a report with the Polda Metro Jaya, accusing the company of fraud related to umrah pilgrimage arrangements. The partners, who operate across Indonesia, assert that they too are victims of the alleged scheme, facing substantial operational losses.

Rachmat Gumilar, a representative for the Hanania Group partners, stated that their visit to the police headquarters was intended to bolster existing reports filed by affected pilgrims. "We are also victims based on our contracts with Hanania Group or PT Hazanah Tama. We are reporting alleged fraud for the pilgrims' failure to depart, and adding new evidence to supplement previous reports," Gumilar explained.

The partners functioned as intermediaries, facilitating pilgrim registrations within their regions. Gumilar emphasized that all financial transactions were directly channeled to Hanania Group's central office, with no funds remaining with the local partners. The breakdown in operations has led to significant financial setbacks for the partners, with individual investments ranging from Rp100 million to Rp175 million, and total losses per partner reaching Rp200 million to Rp300 million.

Beyond the partners' internal losses, which amount to approximately Rp20 billion, a substantial sum of pilgrim funds remains held by Hanania Group's central administration. The scale of the alleged fraud has impacted thousands of prospective umrah pilgrims.

All registrations, transfers, and payments went directly to Hanania Group central. Not a single rupiah went to the partners.
