Actress Davina Karamoy has confirmed that she received a travel allowance from PT Khazanah Tamma Internasional, operating as Hanania Travel, for an Umrah pilgrimage. Speaking after a six-hour questioning session at the Polda Metro Jaya headquarters on Thursday, June 18, 2026, Davina stated that the allowance has already been fully returned.
Davina was examined as a witness in the ongoing investigation into alleged fraud and embezzlement of Umrah travel funds involving Hanania Travel. During the interrogation, investigators from the Subdirectorate for State Security posed 30 questions to the actress. Her legal representative, Yulius Irawansyah, confirmed that the questions focused on the nature of her endorsement agreement with the travel agency.
According to Davina, she was first contacted by Hanania Travel and was persuaded by the positive reviews and the participation of other public figures who had previously undertaken Umrah trips through the company. She clarified that she was contracted to share daily stories of her pilgrimage on Instagram, not to explicitly promote Hanania's business. "We never promoted it because in our contract it states that we only do daily stories," Yulius said, adding that no investment was made by Davina in the company.
Yulius also disclosed that Davina received an allowance of IDR 10 million per trip, which she voluntarily returned. He emphasized that she paid IDR 233.8 million for a family Umrah trip in 2025, proving that her departures were not entirely sponsored. Davina described the experience as a lesson in vigilance and caution.
The investigation into Hanania Travel has led to the naming of its director, Ahmad Syah Farhan, as a suspect. He is charged with fraud, embezzlement, and money laundering under articles of the Indonesian Penal Code. Police have revealed that funds collected from prospective pilgrims were misused, including payments to influencers for promotional purposes. Other celebrities, including Keanu Angelo, Praz Teguh, Paula Verhoeven, Aaliyah Massaid, Thariq Halilintar, and Dara Arafah, have also been questioned in connection with the case.
Why This Matters
This case highlights the legal risks for influencers and public figures when accepting benefits from travel companies without clear endorsement terms. For readers, it underscores the importance of due diligence and transparency in influencer marketing, especially in faith-based travel services, where fraud can have serious financial and reputational consequences.
