And another customer Asif Tanvir says he lost almost £1,000 after flights booked through Hafeez, of Atif Tours and Travels Ltd, to Dubai and Pakistan were cancelled the night before he and his wife were due to fly.
Mr Tanvir and his wife Ambreen were left disappointed and angry when they arrived at Manchester Airport on March 11 to be told their Emirates flight tickets had been cancelled the night before. Mr Tanvir was told that the tickets had been refunded to a credit card.
West Yorkshire Police said officers were investigating a report relating to fraud by false representation which involved plane tickets which had been purchased and later cancelled.
