RENOWNED tour operator, Travellers' Choice, has been forced to shut its doors, after suffering a huge loss as a result of fraudulant activities by a travel agent.

"We can confirm that the company has had no alternative but to cease operations. We have been defrauded by a retail travel agent, a loss which we could not carry," says gm Louis Venter.

"Our legal advisor says we cannot divulge any more than that, other than to say we have laid criminal charges with the SA Police. The matter is sub judice."
