JATENG - The Surakarta Ministry of Religion (Kemenag) office appealed to the public not to be easily tempted by cheap Umrah bureaus to avoid fraud. "Be careful choosing the Umrah bureau because there are still rogue bureaus, don't lure low prices," said Head of the Surakarta City Ministry of Religion Hidayat Maskur in Solo, Central Java, Thursday, March 30, confiscated by Antara. He said that people could directly ask the local Ministry of Religion Office to find out whether the Umrah bureau was recorded or not. "What kind of credibility," he added. Regarding the Umrah fraud, he said several months ago in Solo City there were four people who were victims of fraud by one of the umrah bureaus, namely PT Naila Safaah Wisata Mandiri. "It has been detected that there is fraud. The company has a branch in Solo, how many is the Solo citizen list, he said there are four," Hidayat said. At that time, his party immediately went to the relevant bureau and asked for the four people to be dispatched immediately. "So we forced it, I ordered the congregation to resolve it first. Billions imprisoned, what to choose to leave. Then this has been dispatched, before Ramadan had already been dispatched through another bureau," he said.

Dengan demikian saat ini biro sudah ditutup dan kasus tidak lagi dilanjutkan karena jemaah sudah diberangkatkan.Sementara itu untuk memastikan biro umrah memberikan pelayanan yang baik kepada masyarakat, pihaknya juga secara terjadwal memberikan pembinaan."Kami sering pembinaan di biro umrah, saat ini ada 24 cabang biro umrah di Solo," kata Hidayat Maskur.
