While thousands of Swedes are waiting for compensation after the tour operator Detur went bankrupt, estate inventories show that the group has over half a billion kronor in debts, according to the Sirén News Agency.

In October, the struggling tour operator Detur filed for bankruptcy, shortly after announcing that charter trips had been cancelled. According to the state-run Kammarkollegiet, over 12,500 applications for compensation under the travel guarantee have been submitted to the authority in recent months. Affected travelers have booked trips under the brands Detur, Golfeen and Nordcotours.

Now, estate inventories submitted to the Stockholm District Court show that the total debt in the Detur group, of which Reslan Invest is the owner, is a total of 545 million SEK, of which 53 million are debts to affected customers and travelers, according to the Sirén News Agency.

The bankruptcy trustee writes in an email that he expects there will be more claims against the tour operator from individual customers:

”"The next step in the bankruptcy is to review the accounting," writes lawyer Anders Nilsson to the Sirén news agency.
